you should see what happens when you are running an aftermarket rear axle, with an air locker or spool and forget to turn off traction control and advancetrak.
things get real dumb and the truck will cut power mid slide and will also apply braking on different corners at strange times which...
the heads went to headworks. special sauce valve springs, timing set, different cam phasers, pocket work. i picked up about 130CFM and velocity. If full race had ever released the manifolds that i paid for ( never delivered), I would have picked up more.
with alcon brakes, full race radiator, trans cooler and CAC, a full suspension kit and traction bars, a currie f9 with 10" rem polished gears and 300m shafts, a fully built transmission ( for 2500hp), and a billet torque convertor with larger trans coolers.
i'm running the powermax turbos...
we should talk once i get to AZ. I need to put a couple hundred more miles on the break-in tune/fluids and get my gears swapped to 5.13s before its ready to tune it for all the sauce. I'll bring some extra straps so it doesn't wheelie off the dyno.
pretty sure that im going to need to link the...
you have a dyno to play on? I'm relocating and will be much much closer to new mexico in the very near future. I'm looking for someplace to bring my truck for in person tuning. I'm not keen on dragging the truck all the way to florida once i head west.
for the folks asking, I'm expecting to be around 750 whp ( maybe a little more) on what RMB is marketing as the 750x package. ( i was the guinea pig). I'm still on a 15 psi max breakin tune, but I am confident that I'll be at 750 on 93 and a healthy bit north of that on e98 ignite. my motor is...
If you don't stop in valley t for tacos, you're missing out. Have a safe, fun trip!
Btw, the more serious impact is, if that intake sensor fouls, you're stuck in limp mode with no boost until you fix it. It is not enjoyable.
Ford engineers design the trucks so that the door handles become caked in mud. Its been part of the design spec since the gen2 release. It's the easiest and most effective way to prevent sensitive folks from stealing your truck.
i'd bet that they pinched the wheel speed sensor wire, or they stretched the harness (and broke a wire inside the bundle) when they drooped the suspension.
an accessport won't catch the codes. ( they are less than awesome.)
sometime before Christmas. I have to get a few things buttoned up on the truck before it's ready to take to mike. ( including getting the motor, trans, and new gearset broken in and onto normal oil.
it got upgraded drums, clutches, steels and bearings. along with the convertor, it should hold about 2K hp without issue.
The trans will get tuned when the motor gets tuned, however the trans tune that I already had in the truck would chip tires on the 1-2 and 2-3 shift.
I rarely drive the...
6100 motors are 525HP, I'm going to be putting down 700 to the wheels. It's plenty for me. the supercharged v8 swap trucks are putting out 750 crank hp.
I wanted no turbo lag. I'm spooled by 2200 RPM and if I wanted to, I could crank the redline up to 8K RPM. My ideal motor is more HP and more...
1. There is no place to rinse a filter.
2. Waiting for the filter to dry after washing will slow the entire group down by hours
3. to my point earlier, the oil can and will foul intake sensors. these are finite resources. (in most cases, if the crew doesn't have the spare, you arent going to...
say what you want about being in other people's dust...
One silt bed will smoke your oiled filter. The whole thing will become caked and impermeable. The oil will also sometimes foul intake sensors. ( I literally carry 4 spares because someone ALWAYS needs one and they are not a part that is...
The wrap lasted all of 6 days. Day1 of the trip in the spring was muddy and wrecked it.
it was pretty nice for that week though.
I went with brand new everything. still a 3.5. forged internals, head work, upgraded valvetrain, upgraded timing set, upgraded oil pan, bigger injectors...
I will not be on that trip, my truck will most likely still be under the knife. take a peak at the exo website and pay attention to the Dos and Don'ts.
rule numero uno - no oiled air filters. Rule numero dos - leave the pedal commanders ( or any piggyback tuner) at home. they cause issues.
no welding required. It's direct bolt on. I switched back to a factory resonator. shockingly, its actually louder than with the borla resonator that I had on it before.
Tis true. once i get it broken in, I'll be dragging it to MPT for a dyno tune. I'm expecting to put about 700hp to the wheels on good fuel.
Still need to bring it home.
On deck is getting the new innov8s on the truck, having SVC rework the front suspension, Redoing the bedcage, doing a...
