Looking for a strut for street/drag mt82 car making 850whp. The strange 10 way are looking good to me at the moment. Does anyone have any input on which they would go with and why? I have adj upper and lower control arms with relocation bracket, Viking crusader adj shocks and BMR drag springs...
For those who have oil fed units/turbos. Were you able remove your oil pan with the engine still in place or did you just remove a wheel and make things work?
I was reading in another thread and someone mentioned that the beloved GT500 axel backs went up in price. It was $300 when I got my set and now its $500! I can only imagine its because since the 15's are out and they are no longer being made...
Glad I got mine when I did.
I know I'll be upgrading from my V3 soon and shoot for 850-900whp (poor little mt82). Looking at the turbo route as well, but curious to see why no one really talks about the YSI when its only a few hundred bucks more than a 2200.
I know in the corvette world they have the 2200r. Just a...
My aluminator finally came in and now just waiting to place my order for a Fore system from Beef. I have a 3.33 pulley that will be going on so hoping I get some pretty good numbers out of this head unit. Now if I can crack 800 on e85 I'll be a happy camper!
I've always seen people going back and forth saying the 11.1 does and doesn't have billet OPGs. I just got off the phone with Ford Racing tech, and they assured me that the 11.1 and 9.1 aluminators both have billet OPGs now. It's even updated on the website for anyone else that cares...
Here soon I will be adding some mods to the car and decided to call out one of the locals just to get a baseline of where I stand. Now from what I was told the GT500 made over 800 hp/tq on race gas and nitrous (not sure about all the mods done). When we met he said it was on his pump gas tune...
Over the past few weeks the car has been throwing a P1450 code for "unable to bleed fuel tank". Everytime I would go to put gas in the car you could hear air being release as the nozzel went in. While filling up the tank I was not allowed to fill up completely because the handle would "click" as...
While at a BBQ with the car group, my friend with a 02 Zo6 with a P1SC @ 6-7lbs was there saying before that he hung with a 7xxwhp supra. Now I've ridden in both cars and there is no way I thought he could hang. So I called him for a little fun run.
Mods for 5.0: Vortech V3 7lbs, X pipe
Mods...
So there I was by myself driving on I-20 when I see a camaro coming from the on ramp in front of me. First thoughts were "Meh probably a V6" then I noticed the badge... ZL1. I catch up not sure if he would play or not so I just kept it in 6th @ about 65ish as I pass him. Out of nowhere he flies...
Well my package arrived today via UPS and I started the install right away!
Box wasn't damaged and the pipe was well packed.
Here is a shot of the welding.
This is the inside of the pipe.
Pipes side by side. As you can see the JPC pipe is a bit larger then the Vortech. I had to adjust...
Decided to mod up the tail lights... MMD painted trim and walmart 2.5% tint. Let me know what you guys think.
The reverse lights still shine through at night as I have no issues seeing. I may redo them as this is tial and error time.
