    Need help! Not sure what to do with my wrecked cobra

    I'd be building a very cool sand/desert buggy if it was me!

    Best axle backs with long tubes

    I ran Pypes long-tubes / catless X-pipe, into factory resonators / ota pipes into MBRP axle backs and it wasn't bad at all, this is at a pretty low rpm at 80 mph 6R80/3.15 rear gears, and 28" tall rear tires. Sounded really good imo, but I don't get off on a noisy set-up, unless your making...

    What have you done to your mustang today?

    Pulled blower kit and motor while waiting for CPR kit. Took the short-block to the local machinist for some forged rods / pistons, going with stock compression .005 over-bore just to get them round. Sending converter off to be resized sometime this week.

    9.60's tweaking my way towards some 9.30's??

    Do they fit the wheel well decently, I'm guessing 15" rims?

    Anybody run these at the drag strip? MT SS drag radials on factory 18's

    https://www.summitracing.com/parts/mtt-3484. They're kinda pricey, but was thinking of running them on my factory wheels, when the car's not wearing the 15" radial pros. I see they have the same compound.

    It also has a better cooling effect than gasoline, that effects the actual knock resistance even further than advertised, here's a good read if you get a chance http://www.speedhunters.com/2015/04/everything-you-need-to-know-about-ethanol/

    Forging the 2012

    Right, less energy by volume / weight, but higher octane (more resistant to detonaton / pre-ignition) My Ethanol content has varied locally from mid 60's to low 80's. I never change the tune, and the car runs great. A little richer at lower E content, but ethanol also has a much broader stoich...

    Forging the 2012

    I just went with the standard stuff, and am happy. I did however go with a straight fitting right off of the pump instead of the provided 90, to let the hose gradually curve around some close-by interference items. Under 20$ at parts stores. I'm in the same boat, I have 4 local E85 stations...

    Forging the 2012

    More for safety than power, but I'd guess you could easily see 30 or more at the wheels. The guy who's producing my single turbo kit told me I'd probably see mid 600's on 91 (octane limited), but could get to around 750whp on E85, so take that for what it's worth, but I wouldn't exactly expect...

    Forging the 2012

    They're going to tell you to get a fuel system for E85, BAP's should easily cover you at 6xxwhp for gasoline though. It takes approx 30% more E85 do perform the same work as gasoline, depending on the actual ethanol content in the E85. Just FYI the Sai li fuel system was pretty easy to install...

    Forging the 2012

    If you're wanting to push it, and if you have E85 in your area, it would at least get the octane threshold out of the equation for potentially destroying your engine. I run it all of the time with 10-11psi without any of the internet issues you hear so much about, but if you kept the boost at 10...

    Forging the 2012

    I think the OP should just run the VMP gen 3 in the low-mid 600whp range for a while and go from there. He may decide 600+WHP is just what the doctor ordered, and that blower has plenty of room to grow if he decides to strengthen the motor at a later date, I would however invest in a return...

    Why won't my car do a burn out from a standing start

    Loosen up your stall. Maybe get to a dyno, and see at what rpm you engine starts making good steam, than tell the stall/converter manufacturer. Before I had my 5C on my 2011, it would not spin street tires from a dig at the track or on the street. The car still felt powerful, just not off the...

    I'd like to see a smaller and lighter Mustang

    I wish they were lighter too, but I'm glad a Mustang doesn't cost a huge amount with a lot of carbon fiber, and aluminum parts to do so. At the end of the day, they're doing pretty well while keeping the costs within realm imo. While my 91 Mustang gt weighed 328x, my 2011 that weighs about 300...

    Best aftermarket MAF

    I had no issues with a BA2400 on a gen 2 Lightning, and also a BA2600 on an 04 Cobra, both worked fine.

    External wastegate lines

    I believe the valve protrudes into the pipe it's flanged into as it opens, so exhaust gasses would actually push it towards the closed position. So you'd end up with alot of boost I believe.

    When to upgrade diff. and rear 11-14?

    I actually had the Tru-Trac in my SRA 04 Cobra, and it worked great. If there was an increase in noise or vibration, I didn't notice it at all on that vehicle. Definitely a thumbs up on that diff, and not having to find, or run that stinky friction modifier is also a benefit as apposed to the...

    When to upgrade diff. and rear 11-14?

    I'm wondering when auto coyote cars start seeing broken parts at the drag-strip with their stock differentials, and axles. On one hand, the shock to the rear in an auto car is probably next to nothing compared to a stick car, and the S197's all at least had 31 spline stuff from the factory...

    Are boss exhaust cams worth the trouble on boosted motor?

    I thought there was 2 different ones, I'm just interested in the 6x.xx dollar ones hahaha. I'm guessing the longer duration ones are less likely to work on regular Coyote heads?
