OK, sure. I'm salty. I'm salty for misunderstanding who did what to your car because your description was not clear.
And I'm still glad you hosed your car. Couldn't happen to a better person.
You said YOU installed your Whipple.
But you also never said who/where you bought your SC from.
You do realize that, if you buy a Whipple from a Whipple reseller, you upload your stock tune and download your new calibration tune from Whipple, right?
This is exactly what beefcake racing did...
Oh, OK. I was confused because you said, "I almost went with a GT because I really just want to supercharge it. " Makes it sound like you wanted the GT to supercharge.
I didn't say Ford was responsible to right the wrong. Please focus.
Who installed your SC and flashed the car improperly? THEY are responsible to fix it.
You let the installer screw your car up and you're defending them? That's your choice.
If the fine print says, "We sell this to you and...
How long ago did you make the WAL/WALF changes compared to the approach lighting and auto relock changes?
One thing to keep in mind is that, if you make a change, that change will eventually BECOME your AsBuilt data (as stored @ the Ford mothership). There is no set time period that determines...
Relatively low pressure against a solid object? Sure. A decent sized sharp rock impacting the plastic cover at 75 MPH? Not so sure about that. The point of the rock when deep INTO the bumper cover ... it didn't just get pressed on it at low/no speed.
My detail guy (who did my ceramic) also...
Yup, my C7 Z06 would smoke the piss out of a Mustang GT or DH (and just about everything else that I came across during the time I owned it), but I didn't run around the discussion forums acting like it was the king of the hill because I knew there were faster cars out there - and I wouldn't get...
The Dark Horse is the better choice for supercharging. It has upgraded internals, namely forged connecting rods, a unique balanced crankshaft, and strengthened camshafts.
You're not quite understanding things.
They phucked your car up. They need to un-phuck it up.
If you accept letting a company jack up your car and you're fine with it, that's your choice. I would not be. Not at all.
Generaly speaking, a slightly wider tire isn't going to help much - if at all - if the compound is just as stiff as the tires you have on there now. You need a sticker, softer tire to be able to hook up. But when you do that, you give up longevity. Better "drag strip" type performance means...
If I could program my vehicle with FORScan (or any other software) prior to their screw up, but I can't program it now, then they haven't resolved your issue. If they need to pay for a brand new ECM or other module and dealership time to restore it to factory, THEN flash it with the CORRECT...
