Well 7 years and almost 114k miles and my GT left me dead on the side of the road for the first time. Service charging system light came on and I had just enough time to find a large parking lot to pull off in and wait for a tow.
These alternator are ridiculously expensive. Looks like...
Pulled up at a light first in line in Mexico today, in the middle lane (3 lane road). Had a model S pull up behind me and get on my bumper. Stayed on my bumper when I rolled out and tried to pass on the left so I gave it the beans in low boost and he went too. Pulled to around 100 and he had me...
Should have rolled 100k at the beginning of the year but my gt was down 10 months waiting on a new engine. Finally rolled it over Thanksgiving. Turbos, engine, clutch, shocks and brakes, other than that pretty much all original parts and the car still feels planted at 150mph! Not to shabby for...
So I just got my new oem gen 3 coyote engine installed. Car fired up great and seemed to run good while I started breaking it in yesterday. I wasn't going wot but started to take it through the rpms and got a low oil light. Pulled off the road and checked everything out and all looked good. No...
I'm getting ready to pull my motor and trans this weekend. I would leave the trans in place and just pull the engine but need to pull the car out of my garage so I have space to work.
Will I be able to pull both up and out of the engine bay or will I need to pull the front apart as well? I'd...
Hey guys. I'll try to keep this as short as possible but at 85k miles I went to replace my spark plugs on my TT GT and spark plug number 3 broke off without me noticing while pulling it out. (I grabbed a 12 point spark plug socket without realizing it and didn't get it seated on the plug) I...
Everytime someone starts a new thread about:
Engine noises or "the tick"
Fluctuating/ high oil pressure
OPGs
I'm having a drink. Pretty sure I'll be lit by noon. Happy Sunday!
As the title says I'm curious what mileage everyone's at with their boosted GTs. I know there is 100 mileage threads already but havent saw one for boosted cars yet. Really looking to see how many guys are hitting the 100k mark on the stock engine but open for all replies.
I hit 82k this...
So after letting my car sit for the four day weekend I got in and headed to work Monday morning. Everything seemed normal except the smell of gas was stronger than normal. (I run a lot of boostane so I didn't think anything of it) Went to grab a water bottle out if my car while working and...
Finally ordered an eboost2 for my birthday after running spring pressure for the last year and a half on my hellion kit. I'm only finding two options for the vent mount. Hellhorse and atomic track solutions. ATS is quite a bit cheaper than hellhorse. Anyone have any experience with it? If it's...
So about a month ago I noticed a dirty/ greasy looking spot on my Intercooler. I had the bumper off 2 weeks ago so I cleaned it up good and forgot about it. Until this morning, I go out side and notice the spot forming again in the same area. Now I'm wondering is that area is attracting dirt or...
Currently running a snow kit with a single 10g/h nozzle on my hellion twins at 8lbs. Thinking about upping the boost to 9 or 10lbs so I thought about going to a dual nozzle set up and adding a 4g/h nozzle for a total of 14g/h. Snow's chart shows that Im right where I need to be for the boost...
Car is a 19 m6 with hellion sleeper kit on pump gas. 15k miles since I put the turbos on and over 63k total miles on the car. 1st and 2nd gear pull hard but the car seems to fall on its face in 3rd gear. Once I shift 4th it seems to pull harder than 3rd again. It used to feel like it pulled much...
So I boosted my mustang in March and put 14k miles on it since then. We have crappy 91 out here so I run boostane in every tank and meth. Swapped plugs for ngk's when I installed the twins. I was hoping to get a year before replacing plugs, which would be about 20k miles but started feeling...
Hey guys. Looking for opinions/ differences when going from mp4s's to nitto 555riis. Mostly concerned with tire life but open to other comments. How many miles did you get out of the michelins compared to the nittos. Thanks!
I have a borla 60661 resonator I'm no longer using and want to get it out of my garage. I was running it connected to 3" down pipes though so I chopped off the 2 1/4" factory connects and put 3" connects on it. If you've got headers and exhaust and want to quite down your set up a little hit me...
Just finished installing lethals LPXHD clutch and took it for the first drive last night. Goes into gear good and shifted through the gears great right out the gate. After about 10 mins of driving through the neighborhood seeing how it shifts I noticed if I linger at cruising speeds at 1500rpm...
I was looking at calimer transmissions earlier and noticed a shift weight delete option. This got me looking up pics to see exactly what it is and after finding a few I'm pretty sure this weight isn't on my tranny. Back in March while I was under my car I noticed a rod sticking out of the...
So long story short I purchased the snow performance meth kit about 6 weeks ago and finally made time to finish everything up over the weekend. Just in time to see how it works for a whole week of 115° plus days. I went with the base kit and have it set to start spraying at about 4lbs of boost...
