    Video - Worlds Quickest Supercharged S550 on oem pcm!!!

    Wow. How much boost were you running? Was engine OEM? If not, was it a complete rebuild with sleeves.

    Should I cut the lower grill for the intercooler?

    Now that I see the picture, I'd do as suggested and box it in. Hopefully you can angle the outer section towards the inter cooler so that it directs the air that way and the same for the other side.

    Paxton/Vortech 3.125" Pulley and Belt

    Probably will work. If you get any slippage then you can always go with the gates green belt.

    Paxton/Vortech 3.125" Pulley and Belt

    I went with the green 6 rib belt from Beefcake for my Paxton 2200sl which I believe is an inch shorter. Everyone on this forum told me I'd be getting too much belt slippage with the 3.15 pulley with the 6 rib. I'm currently at 750rwhp with the TQ booster set at 14 psi and not getting any...

    Should I cut the lower grill for the intercooler?

    The Paxton install on my 2011 GT CS required cutting the opening of the front fascia to fit the inter cooler and improve air flow. If it were my car, I'd be doing all I could to improve the cooling effectiveness. Your car will run cooler and produce more HP with less heat.

    Oil Pump Gear Change In Car ????

    I fabricated a fork like piece out of aluminum to hold the bolt in place while I turned it with one finger. That worked. I also put down some plastic into the oil pan opening in case I dropped the bolt. There's a thread on here with instructions and pics. Try looking a little harder.

    Can dealerships recalibrate electronic speedometers??

    Why don't you put an auto in your current car rather than trading. Wouldn't that be a better option to trading as you know what you've got now and how it's been driven.

    2011 5.0 Shaking

    Likely went into limp mode. It could be a bad O2 sensor in the front. A data log might show a faulty fuel trim which is likely due to a faulty O2 sensor. I replace my front ones annually now. It could also be a fault of the tune.

    Question on differential

    It was more than a slow leak. It surprised me that it leaked out at all and that it was more a leak than a drip. As soon as I removed the plug and saw the leak I took a few minutes to clean up the plug and reapply some blue locktite before reinstalling it. During this time the diff fluid was...

    Question on differential

    I have a minor drip at the bottom of the differential. I had the car on my 4 post lift which is pretty well level and decided to add some diff oil. When I removed the fill/check plug on the diff, I had some oil leak out the fill hole so I just reinstalled the plug. Why would there be diff oil...

    Tremec swap gone bad

    It's the speed sensor cable (or whatever it's called) that attaches to the transmission. I had same issue, no speedo or wrong speed, all dash lights come on, dash changes colour. I would hit a bump and then speedo worked properly and then it would quite. What was happening is that the speed...

    2 post or 4 post lift experiences/advice

    I have a 4 post with a rolling jack and low rise aluminium drive on ramps. My 2011 is lowered and no problems driving it on. It's quicker to get the car in the air with a 4 post. The rolling jack allows me to raise one end of the car. The only issue is that sometimes the rails (ramp) get in...

    October Sale - AmericanMuscle

    Be nice to see O2 sensors on sale. The widebands on the Coyote don't last long and cause fuel trim issues.

    2015 Shelby Super Snake

    Don't know what Shelby was thinking in providing a test car to Road and Track without pretesting and fixing issues. Entry level is $50k for 627hp, $55k for 750+hp (test car had 850 at crank). 1/4 mile result was 12.3 @ 116mph, slower than a 707hp Hellcat (12.0 @ 124.8). Apparently there was a...
