    Extremely Odd Electrical Issues - Car is Completely Dead

    This is going to be a long one as it's got a lot of layers and I don't want to leave out any detail that may turn out to be important. 2006 Mustang GT, low boost single turbo setup, just dyno'd 500hp a few months ago. 40k miles on the car. This started when I forgot to put my battery tender...

    Door lock buttons don't work, key fob lock/unlock works fine?

    Ever since I've owned my Mustang, the interior door lock/unlock switches don't work (nothing happens when you use them). The key fob has always worked perfectly and the window switches work perfectly. If it was one side only I'd think it was just unplugged or something but neither side works...

    Suddenly running super rich, no codes, starts great then dies after 5 seconds.

    So my Mustang went from running great (Lito tune) to running super rich last weekend. Parked it in the garage running great, got in it the next day and it started, did the 5 second idle up and as it settled down to the ~1000 rpm idle it stumbled and died. Restarted it and same thing. Restarted...

    Trans Tailshaft Leaking, What's Required to Fix?

    As stated, the stock manual trans in my 06 GT is leaking out of the tailshaft. It makes a little 1.5" puddle under the car each day, not bad but annoys me that it's staining the floor. I need to adjust pinion angle so I figure I might as well fix the leak while the DS is out. So what's...

    WTB Spare Tire Hold Down Components

    Previous owner apparently left all of the hold-down stuff for the spare tire on the side of the road or something, noticed there is nothing holding my spare tire/jack/handle in place. So basically I need the J hook, wing nut, washer, and whatever else came from the factory to hold these items in...

    A/C quite working over the winter...

    My a/c worked fine last year. This year the clutch doesn't engage when I turn it on. I thought it was leaking refrigerant so I tried to top it off with a DIY kit and it said it was already full according to the gauge and wouldn't take any refrigerant. I tried jumping the relay that controls the...

    Turbo 3v highway MPG?

    I'm trying to figure out if my turbo 3v is where it should be for highway MPG or if I need to keep messing with the tune to try to get more out of it. I'd like to hear what you guys are seeing for highway MPG and what speed you run on the highway. Thanks. I'm currently getting ~20mpg at 80mph...

    WTB: 05-09 2.5" Over Axle Pipes - Not Stock

    Looking for some over the axle pipes to replace the stock units but I'm not looking for a complete catback with mufflers. I've already upgraded the mufflers, I'm just looking to get rid of the factory axle pipes that are "flattened" over the panhard bar area. Please send me a PM if you've got...

    Exhaust Sound Clips - Turbo Cars

    I'm looking for some exhaust clips of 3v turbo cars. Mine still has a stock catback (crushed pipe over the axle) so I'm looking to upgrade to a full 2.5" or 3" system with straight through mufflers. Problem is I do not want any drone and I don't want it super loud. I don't mind the sound now but...

    Powerhouse Turbo Exhaust Leak At Manifolds?

    Has anybody with a Powerhouse single turbo kit had issues with the crossover pipe leaking where it connects to the exhaust manifolds? I've tried to fix it a few times. First by simply loosening everything up and readjusting it to make sure everything was seated properly. When that didn't work I...

    Crankcase Ventilation w/Boost...Best Method?

    Currently my car has both valve covers vented with 1/2" hose going to the k-member which drips to a little on the ground (which drives me crazy since it stains my shop floor). The passenger side is the worst offender as that hose is connected to a fitting in the oil cap. Do 3v guys successfully...

    Inconsistent WOT AFR day to day

    I bought this car (see sig) not too long ago and haven't touched the tune or anything. For a few weeks it ran the same every day, then one day I got on it in 3rd gear and it cut out when I got into boost, looked at the wideband and it was lean under boost (15:1 or higher). I didn't drive the car...

    Timing Advance for Turbo 3v

    I bought an 06 GT that has a Powerhouse 67mm turbo kit installed. I'm the 3rd owner and the tune has been changed a ton of times by the previous owners (not dyno tunes) and it's got some quirks in the tune that I'm trying to track down. Main thing I'm seeing right now is it appears to me...
