    Update on my tune problems

    I really hope this doesn't start up a thread war about who has the best tuner, etc. I am only posting my story in case others find themselves in the same spot. I bought a 13-6 Kit from Van a couple of weeks back. This of course comes with a Lund tune. I asked for two tunes: 91 octane +...

    JLT CF CAI for 2013 Shelby

    FS: JLT CF CAI for 2013 Shelby About 2 weeks ago, I bought a 13-6 kit from Van at RevanRacing. Included in that was the 127mm Big Air JLT Carbon Fiber intake and filter. I installed everything, drove about 10 miles to the dyno shop to make some pulls, and then drove back home. The thing is...

    Anyone running the Whipple 123mm CAI with the 2103 Shelby?

    Anyone running the Whipple 123mm CAI with the 2013 Shelby? If you are, do you like it? Why did you pick it over the JLT or other options out there? I am thinking of switching from my current carbon fiber 127mm JLT for this to help address some tune issues. So any input is appreciated...

    Blinking yellow traction control icon

    So on the freeway today I was doing about 75 mph. I spun up the rpms and dropped it into 2nd gear. A flashing yellow traction control icon came on. I've never seen this before. It went away after about 1-2 seconds. Anyone know what this means?

    Traction suggestions

    Hi guys, Can you all give me your thoughts on how to increase traction on the 2013 Shelby? Set tires aside for now, I am asking about other suggestions. Also, when you give your suggestion, please keep in mind that I would prefer if these mods were "handling friendly". Meaning, I know can...

    Quick question on tunes (summer versus winter)

    If I have my car tuned in 110 degree Phoenix weather versus having it tuned in 60 degree Phoenix winter, will the tunes be the same? I realize the horsepower will be different, but will the tunes themselves be the same? I am debating taking a "canned" tune from someone like Van and Lund, or...

    Just got my car hot tagged...

    So I guess I am a bit fed up that my car is collecting dust and bird poop in Area 51 since 8/3. So I just now sent a note to this sort of high up guy at Ford who has been helping me get my car through the system. Here is his reply: "I am not in the next couple of days, but I just sent a note...

    Does anyone live near "Ramp 51"?

    Just curious if anyone lived near there and if it was possible to take pictures of the cars sitting over there. I would be cool if someone could take a picture of mine. It would be the one sitting there collecting dust. :burnout:
