    When do you get your car back out?

    Got the car out 10 days ago in Calgary. Couldn’t wait anymore.

    Anyone with 127550 cams only ? Need advice

    Yes. I called Whipple and explained my situation and they sent me a bypass actuator that doesn’t snap shut at low vacuum. It made a huge difference and made the car tuneable. I also have a TR-6060 trans and 373 gears. It still takes a bit of practice to launch. You have to give it a bit of...

    Which clutch do I want/need?

    General cruising, occasional "spirited" street duty and a few drag passes on the RST with street tires. It let go on the strip and I limped it home. Since I installed the RXT I've upped the boost and also run DR's on the rear and the RXT holds no problem.

    Which clutch do I want/need?

    McLeod flywheel and RXT hands down. Mine's a Whipple stroker 3V (629 WHP) and the RST didn't last very long at all. No issues with the RXT.

    Air fuel ratio up about 1 point

    Any chance it's the O2 sensor?

    Is the calculated ambient used for anything in the tune?

    RXT Clutch?

    Not since I roasted my RST on the first pass up there a few years ago. Been working crazy hours - haven't started my mustang in over a month - only three times since last September. Are you going to Street Machine Weekend this year?

    RXT Clutch?

    My RST didn't last very long but it was during the period McLeod was having issues with those. I swapped it for an RXT and would never consider anything else. I'm mostly street - even rush hour traffic at times.

    WTB Autolite HT0 or Brisk for 2006 GT with supercharger.

    I use Brisk in mine - they have the regular J-straps and are much easier to gap.

    Holy fuck this shit has been going on for a long time over $75. Sometimes shit happens with brand new parts. Sportinawoody you're modifying a car and its not always going to go totally smoothly. It sucks but you were the last guy to touch that injector and it's fucked up now. There's no way to...

    Early GT500 clutch setup. How much does it hold?

    There were lots of issues with the early GT500 clutches. Just about everyone local to me has settled on the MacLeod RXT twin disk for S197 supercharged GT's and GT500's. The downtime and PITA of clutch changes in these cars is not worth the cost savings of cobbling something together IMHO.

    Someone please talk me out of this.

    Mystichrome is a PPG product (Harlequin series). My buddy has a mystichrome termi and I painted the underside of his hood a few years ago. Materials alone were over $500 at the time and that was before most shops here have converted over to waterborne systems. I'm not even sure if that code is...

    Livernois Phaser Limiters....Anyone use them?

    I've had them in since 2008 - no issues.

    Just wanted to share my mustang

    Rated is one thing - experience is another. My car is 629 RWHP and the RST didn't hold it. On the other hand I love the RXT and it holds well. Other local cars have had similar experiences. The local Terminator guys seem to have better luck with the RST over 500HP but the S197's here don't. I'm...

    Just wanted to share my mustang

    Nice project. The local experience around here with high horsepower S197's is that the RST struggles. I went through one very quickly myself but have had very good luck with the RXT.

    What are my options?

    I know a local Calgary gal that wants to go FI on her 07 CS. Perhaps you could work out a deal and swap parts over. PM me if you're interested.

    He mentioned that he was from Alberta, Canada. That's my neck of the woods if anyone can get more specific details.

    Stupid Relo brackets..

    I recently installed BMR relo's and they lined right up and bolted in fine - then we welded them. I've seen lots of guys try to assemble things over the years put one bolt in and tighten it down before trying to even start the next bolt, etc. The process usually results in frustration. I try to...

    Not a Mustang but I still had to change my boxers

    A few weeks ago we had a few cars out on a private track in Phoenix. My favorite was the GT3 RS. After that experience, I'm very tempted to pull the trigger on a local low mileage 2010 turbo coupe.

    Looking for a softer clutch pedal feel

    +1 I have the RXT - same pressure plate. Love it.

    TPMS question

    I thought the light wouldn't bother me but it did. I drove my car on nice days the first winter and had a set of tires more appropriate for those conditions (without sensors). The next spring I did the first supercharger build and have only summer driven the car since so the TPMS light is no...

    TPMS question

    It took about two days for the TPMS system in my '07 to recognize that the sensors were gone. After that, the light came on all the time.

    TPMS question

    1) Deliberately defeating a vehicle "safety" system might have an effect on your insurance claim should you be unfortunate enough to get into an accident. You should check your policy. Insurance companies will use any excuse not to pay. 2) Some tire shops won't install tires without the sensors...
