We have a 2-year warranty on our parts. It is basically a "no hassle" warranty. Of course, I cannot warranty a part that is not caused by design or manufacturing defect.

As for customers who have had a part longer than 2 years, it does not mean we leave 'em out on their own, if they have an issue. If it is due to our manufacturing, then we will work with the customer on revising the situation.

That said, the issue here was the Radiator Support - not the K-Member.

:beerdrink:
Kelly,

I'm glad it was "Not" the K-Member or the rest of your products under my Bullitt Mustang.

So far so good on all your products on mine.

TNGA 2014 local car show...

I needed to gather some data for my tuner...figured dyno pull would be the safest vs pulling on the street. This dyno is so old, the operators said there is a 25% drivetrain loss. sigh

All the shaking made me doubt whether I wanted to get on this thing...lol

I'm not even going to report what the numbers were; yes they were that bad!!

This dyno needs to be retired or at least rebuilt...

Anyone know how old this dyno is and who made it (brand)?

Looks like a trailer mounted dyno jet. Numbers are going to vary between dynos. About the only consistent dyno is an sae weather corrected dynojet. Don't get hung up on the numbers and if you are using the dyno for comparison purposes then use the same one with weather correction.

I agree Bruce, but typically you will see the same results within 50 HP or so...not over 100 HP difference.

I have never come across dynos with this much difference.

Crazy!!
I just got on there for datalogging, not for numbers. Although i did have the highest numbers of the day.
AAARRGG!!! lol

Oh, this explains all the clapping at the end, lol.

No, people clap whenever they see the car and I get out... LOL

Oh BTW, my girlfriend wants to know if you have t-shirts... She said we need Lito Tuning t-shirts to wear at all the races and car events.

^^Yes I understand that to be the case too, a Mustang Dyno will always reflect lower numbers than a Dynojet. However some claim the MD's are better for tuning since they can apply more realistic loads than a Dynojet. I'll be strapping my car onto an MD in the next couple weeks if everything goes well between now and then.

There is even one better than the Mustang Dyno... DynaPack!!!
This is the best of the best for tuning!!!

If you can find a shop with one of these, go with a DynaPack.
Although, they are pretty expensive and most shop won't dish out the money for it.

Oh snap... Not normal. I would have told the dyno operator to stop!!

Thats not normal. My experience with the Dynapack was amazing.
Smooth and quiet. Only noise and vibrations came from the car.

As I worked my way to the drivers side and removed the throttle body, I found oil in the elbow... sigh
Guess my super duper Crawford air-oil separator is not working that great. :(
The passenger side can is clean...spotless, but the driver's side keeps collecting oil/water.
