Hey guys, man have I had issues with my KB168 throttle body. My first tuner was unable to get it to idle right and keep it from going into fail safe. Then the next tuner got it and was able to fix the fail safe issue, but it still hangs at 1500 rpm once you got WOT, so i'm going back to the...
Does the Boss 302R electric steering rack provide a better feel than the stock 2011 GT rack? I'm just kind of tired of the lack of connection I experience with the front tires.
The whole team at Power by the Hour has done an awesome job with my car over the years. I took my car to them about five years ago for a Roush blower which morphed into a 675/590 beast with a T56 Magnum, Fore fuel system, Wilwood brakes, et cetera. I guess I'm just feeling grateful and want to...
So I thought I'd start a poll on which gears you would choose with a 2.97 T56 Magnum XL. The car is a 2011 TVS that will be making around 800whp/700ft lbs tq. It's a steet car on 28in drag radials that needs to be set up for 40 mph roll racing.
Hey guys, well i'm really enjoying the new power I'm making with E 85, but the car feels a little bit unstable, like it's floating when I get on it hard. Wondering what's causing that? I have Eibach Pro Spring, Strange shocks and struts, Steeda Rear control arms and Eibach sway bars. Up front...
I live in humid South Florida and was wondering if there would be any negative effects from leaving E 85 in the gas tank for six months without driving the car? Thanks.
I just bought some SVE 15×10 wheels I need some advice on tires. Car has a T 56 Magnum XL 2.97 transmission with 3.31 gears. I'm deciding between The Mickey Thompson 275/60/15 which are 28.19 tall or the 295/55/15 that are 27.99 diameter. It's a street car 2011 TVS, 82 mm pulley on Eibach Pro...
Soon A complete return style Fore Innovations system will be installed with ID 1000s. The car makes 590whp and 500 torque on the 82 mm pulley, and I'll be swapping to the 79mm pulley. I'm still running the Roush supplied air box and stock Throttlebody. Car is tuned by Lund in hot South Florida...
Hey guys, I have the six piston super lite Wilwood brakes on the Front and they Will not stop the car quickly from 100mph. In fact, at that speed they just fade away and my foot goes to the floor. Is anyone else out there having this experience with these brakes? the pads and rotors are good. I...
I've been thinking about moving my battery to the trunk and wondering if it's worth it? Seems like 33 pounds right over the back tires would be great for traction. Was hoping someone out there could tell me about how the car improved with the battery in the trunk. Thanks!
So I've pretty much got the funds together to have my short block built by MPR, and the mechanical work to be done by Power by the Hour. I'm leaning towards having my shortblock sleeved, but I'm concerned that it might be overkill and unnecessary. My thought has been that it's an extra two...
Just wondering how many of you all out there experienced your front end floating after your TVS went on? I don't see why the heavy TVS would cause the front end to float around in high speeds , though. I added an aftermarket swaybar which corrected the problem. I wonder if the floating was A...
I'd really like to hear from you guys who are rocking an MMR motor. How many miles are on your motor, and how's it holding up? What's the customer service like at MMR? Did they take longer than they said they would to build your motor? The pricing at MMR is excellent. Their 1000 long block...
In my opinion there is a lack of connection between the steering wheel and the front tires of my 2011 GT. I just don't feel connected to the road, and one of the things I really enjoy about driving is the Feeling I get in my hands from the steering wheel. I know that the boss 302R has...
What lightweight batteries are you all using? I would love to take some weight off the nose. Anyone out there using the antigravity battery on their DD? How's it working out for you?
So I was just talking with a well reputed company about fuel systems and wanted to run this by you all. He said that you don't need a return style fuel system to run E85. According to him, plenty of guys run E85 with just a BAP, ID1000s and the 82 mm pulley. He said that the complete return...
I have a wiggle in my steering wheel that is pretty much always there but worse on certain roads. The wiggle was reduced considerably after the front control arms and bushings were replaced, but there is still a little shimmy even after having the tires balanced and the wheels checked. What's...
I went with an H pipe, had the car retuned by Lund, and felt that it lost some low end torque when not in boost. I took the car back in, they added some timing and made some cam adjustments and the car made more power. However, the car still feels like it does not want to rev as easily as it did...
The system comes with everything you need to support 900 WHP and sells for 1,949. For 200 bucks more I can set it up to support over 1400 WHP.
My goal is around 900 WHP with my TVS once I get the 11:1 Aluminator short block.
JPC said that this system is great because it's all there and will...
TVS Pulley Swap and More Torque
I just got my 2011 TVS back from Power by the Hour. They swapped out my 85mm pulley for the 82 mm, and it picked up some major torque which is what I asked for. At 4000 rpm I'm up over 100 rwtq. What do you guys think about the new graph? Thanks.
