Is this so that you can get your mixture exact for the tune you are running?

I managed to get 20.5 yesterday when I had an interstate trip by waiting until I was up to cruising speed, flipping on the cruise control at 83 mph and then resetting the mpg - it was at 20.5 when I arrived back home. I was stopped by a nice Sheriff's Deputy on the return trip who said he...

Oh, my car runs in the 190s all summer driving on the street. It never gets out of the the 180s for shorter trips. The fan is on because I am almost always running A/C even when it is not summer. The Dark Horse has to be really pushed to see a CHT over 200. I have gotten the CHT over 220 on...

The latter, obviously. Raise the temperature before the limp mode kicks in? I suppose as long as it is still safe . . . I always thought the engineers started retarding spark and making other changes to save the engine as it gets hotter by limiting the amount of new heat the driver can...

I see that Brenspeed has a two inch thick radiator for the S550 (GT and GT350). https://www.brenspeed.com/77715.html I can't find anybody selling anything like this for the S650. The Mishimoto appears to be about the largest capacity radiator available, and I cannot even find the OEM spec to...

It seems like nobody answered your question. No. We are not allowed to remove the catalytic converters. Period. There are several thousand dollar fines involved if you do. Automotive shops that do it can face a $25,000 fine. We have 50 states. 45 of them mirror the federal law on this...

Oh, no! It is Blue Ember Metallic! I have been scared to death of mine getting scratched with the kid playing around the car.

That looks like the phone app. Ford Pass? Is there a cost? Is there any downside to installing this on my iPhone? Is there any benefit? I read that it is useful if you lock your keys in your car. Anything else? What does it do?

Um, why not? What was funny about it? I am a little lost.

Dammit. :facepalm: Sorry. :frown: Seriously. I will try to do better next time I take issue with a post. :like:

1990 wants its tuning back, Vanilla Ice.

Steeda is now running 9s with no boost. They are running GSC camshafts (and sell them). Their dyno sheet does not show 9,000 rpm. The rpm at the horsepower peak is at 6,557 rpm. The dyno chart does not look like anything I would want to run to 9000 rpm. You? You can see their dyno chart...

I never thought about using bungee cords before for a brake change! Great suggestion. Can you post a picture of your pad spreading tool? I am guilty of being in the screwdriver club. :facepalm:

If you cannot track the car without overheating it, then the radiator is not designed to cool 486 horsepower. That is just a true statement. Now let's tackle your next assertion, that Maybe the qualifier adverb "instantly" was thrown in there because you realized the silliness of what you...

It does burn cooler in the combustion chamber, but when the car generates more horsepower, it generates more heat, and a percentage of that heat has to be removed from the coolant and the oil. The base GT has no oil cooling whatsoever. The base GT has a radiator designed to commute to work and...

Thank you, MMR. I did not know that.

I am not the rep, and I do not even have an R2 camshaft, but, yes, you need springs and titanium retainers (both springs and retainers are available for less than 800 American dollars), and, of course, a tuner who is familiar with the camshafts and the VCT system and how to use VCT to gain a...

I am aware of how things are in your country. I have been to your country many times, and it was one of my favorite places to visit. I even saw Pink Floyd in concert there (Nijmegen, Goffertpark, in 1989). My comment was more aimed in general at the thread, as I was surprised to see so many...

I am embarrassed to ask, but, here goes. Why are the Dark Horse models so much shorter?
