For those of you who have the VMP Gent II kit with the intercooler, does the electrical connection "snap in" to the top of the intercooler pump? My IAT2s were 170°F yesterday and found that my electrical harness came undone. It slides back on easy, but can slide back off just as easy so driving...

Can someone school me on the difference between Fuel Pump Module Duty Cycle and Fuel Pump Percentage? I see 58.xx to 60.xx for duty cycle throughout the pull: 900RPM to 6200 RPM. While fuel pump percentage is say and 0.19 starting at 5400RMP up to 6200 RPM and 120 (average) under 5400 RPM. I...

A local dealership was offering $20 off for service, and I needed an alignment. Do you every hear that little voice that says "Don't take your car the to dealership, they will screw it up." Well, I ignored mine. When the service was done and it was time to drive home, I noticed that my SCT...

The bushing on my a-arms are starting to show their age, and my local mechanic suggested that I could simply replace the bushings. I am thinking of replacing the a-arms themselves with something from FPRR or BMR - those seem to be the most available on Steeda, Brenspeed, Lethal Performance...

Last weekend I installed an aftermarket radiator and a Reische 170°F thermostat. I am having trouble burping the system after I have everything buttoned up. The owners manual states that the 5L coolant system takes ~13 quarts, and so far I have put in 8 quarts and now the overflow bottle is...

I opted for a Roush Fuel Pump Regulator since it is plug n play rather than deal with crimping and soldering. The Roush instructions presume a coupe from the picture below: Since I have a convertible, the bracing is different in the trunk. A thread on SVT some years ago highlighted a Kenne...

Anyone have a borescope? If so, what make and model do you have and are you happy with it? I am thinking of buying one; perhaps an Extech.

I was trying to data log WOT pulls tonight and my check engine light came on momentarily. It actually flashed on and off for a few times; when I went to read the DTC codes while it was flashing no codes came up. Anyone have experience with something like this?

There is a 'new' (never owned) 2014 Roush Stage 3 sitting at my local Ford dealership. It has been there for 1 year and 3 months. Survived countless sales. Sticker price is $62,500. Hypothetical: You are interested in purchasing this vehicle. Sales guy says, "this is a specialty car" with a...

Is there some unwritten rule that I am not aware of? Something along the lines of "I started it, so finish it"? Maybe my ovaries are hurting, but I am not going to race in traffic. I believe this is a Chevy Cruz SS, it is hard to see in my video. I am pulling out of a housing development, and...

I recently had a VMP Gen II kit installed last week and I am in the process of data logging. The log I was sent from VMP captured 'Intake Air Temp2' which read very high. Anywhere from 158˚F to 193˚F. I looked through other options under 'Environment' and there is also a PID named 'Intake Air...

I would like to know if the new BMR Watts link on the front page fits a convertible. I know Fays2 offers one for convertible owners like myself.

I have been shopping around quite some time for superchargers and I have been leaning toward a Roush, particularly from Brenspeed. I just came back from a local shop, which is what I would prefer, but they are a Magnuson authorized dealer. They are very knowledgeable with the LS engine and...

Does anyone have a dash cam? I am curious to know what others have bought, experienced with the product and install. I recently purchased a G1WH. Nothing fancy with the install; I have the 12V adapater in the center console and snake the wire under the center console plastic, behind the glove...

I am looking to run a staggered setup. I know 18x10 +45mm 275/35-18 will be a good fit; this is what Roush does. No camber plates required. I want to keep the front the same as above, but change to 18x11 +56mm (I think, to keep it flush with fender). A couple of concerns: 1) Adjustable...

"Welcome to the voodoo world of wheel offset, width, and tire size." -someone else on another forum Currently I am running American Racing Villains 20x8.5 +38mm with a 245/35/20 tire on the front and 20x10 +38mm with a 275/35/20 on the rear. The rear tires ever so gingerly stick out past the...

I recently updated my ECU tune from Mid-Atlantic Performance. So far I love the tune over the stock tune from Ford. I get some tire spin off the line and I am thinking I should go the route of upgraded my UCA and LCA to help with that. I see that Bob's Autosports gets kudos for their LCAs. Any...

Hey guys, I have been working with Mike Roush for a tune over the last month, and so far I am happy with the tune. We believe there was some knock with the first tune, so he pulled in the timing a bit in second gear. Where the first tune felt a bit like a step function when WOT, the second...

My the wood base of my trunk mat has been broken since i purchased it used. The screw that holds in the spare tire also poked through the fiber board or whatever it's actually made of. I have searched high and low for an OEM replacement and apparently other people have had the same problem...

This is my first car that I am starting to modify and I have been reading and asking a lot of stupid questions. This is my daily driver so I am considering reliability of the setup and overall car, maintenance, and initial cost balanced against performance. At the moment, I have a Roush cold...

I am currently looking for shops in the Phoenix area that have experience with Mustangs. Future plans include a Circle D torque converter and a Roush Supercharger (575 HP kit). I found a couple myself including: Foxbody Performance AZ Mustang Performance Car Guy (the one in Chandler) Extreme...

9 times out of 10 I decide to pass on racing anyone on the street. It's always the wrong place at the wrong time due to traffic or the police waiting around the corner. For whatever reason, most people I have encountered want to man up on the street that leads into or out of my neighborhood...
