What did you see?

I saw some fast ass cars running autos, and seeing the Lund Racing's TT car was the icing on the cake for me. Nice meeting you today. That white Boss ran 152.9, im not sure if yall saw it.

Nice to meet you and yours today. I apologize I couldn't spend more time. We got busy with the CAI testing and trying to squeeze as many runs in as possible.


Same to you sir. So how did the cai testing go?

Still ongoing through tomorrow. So far though, the JLT and the stock airbox have both run 168.X.

I saw a 2011 GT auto with a cai, mild tune, and dr's run consistant 12.3x at 114 over and over. The guy bought it for his wife and she was super consistant with it.

1/4 mile is different than a standing mile. From what I was told the auto is good to 800 ft lbs. Can the mt82 make that claim???

Take a picture of your cap when you get it and then I will believe it.

You were correct. Here's my new one.

youre kidding right? my car is a track pack car and it doesnt spec a different weight oil lol

Track Pack is a 2013 option, Brembo package cars from 2011-2012 are not "Track Pack".

Track Pack for 2013 is the Brembo Brake Package/Shocks/Struts/Springs, 3.73 Rear Gears, Boss Engine Oil Cooler, Boss Radiator, 19x9 Wheels, Boss Transmission Cooler and Torsen Differential.

It's too bad there isn't a "Boss rods and pistons" option to go with that.

They call that the Boss 302 package.

There is more difference than just rods and pistons in the motor. Anyway it would be nice to have a built motor option. IIRC they had one in the late 60's called a "Drag Pack" that got you a forged motor and a few other goodies.

Lito, I verified that I do indeed have vacuum going through the pcv valve.

Since replacing the pcv valve the car hasnt smoked once. I haven't had to add oil, which is nice. The car is running much better. All over a 17$ part.

Wow. I am really surprised all this was caused by a PCV valve. I didn't think it possible.

I'm really glad things seem to be working out for you!

What bugs me about it the most is this was the next step in fords diagnosis. Why not just save everyone the hassle and replace the part, besides there is a tsb for it. I guess now I can start the future plans for it.
