    My PTU upgrade for easier maintenance

    Even with a drain plug, it’s not easy to “fill,” just drain. If I had mine out, I’d drill a new fill hole and thread it on the top side, next to the vent hole. Then use one line ran up as a vent, and second as a fill. As of now, it takes forever to fill as you are filling from the vent and no...

    "Binding" in Reverse

    Same thing here, I was getting the binding, intermittently. Then it escalated to the “propane smell” and I took it in and got it replaced for free under the TSB.

    New carbon fiber hood for my 2015 SHO

    My OCD is eating at me about those rivets or screws not being equal/lined up on the rear to the front of the center hood vent lol. But looks like a cool race inspired functional hood.

    Sho versus doe.

    Yesterday morning on my way home from work, a few thousand feet ahead on the highway I saw a doe standing on the right-hand shoulder as I was traveling in the #1 lane. I slowed and the doe turned 180* facing away from the highway. I maintained a slower speed (~50mph) and as soon as I was getting...

    Rotors that won't warp?

    What brand do you have now? I've always had good luck with Centric rotors, but have not tried them on the SHO.

    Ortiz Performance - Customer Service?

    I’ve made at least three separate orders from them. Two different times, I reached out a few weeks later asking about shipping or tracking, and those two times I received some sort of a “sorry that one order got passed over” type of deal. Both times, however, Lee was very courteous and made sure...

    Looking for opinion on 16 SHO at Dealer MODDED a ton

    I’ll never understand why a person sells a car without the tuner if the tuner is needed cause the car can’t be turned back to stock. Luckily in this case the new owner was able to obtain it.

    Excessive Tire Wear

    If everything is in alignment and balanced, I would think that is the quality of the tire, or lack there-of. When I put new tires on, I chose Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 tires. Few weeks back I popped one by hitting a hidden curb in the middle of a parking lot. I measured when I went to...

    Whats next?

    I was curious after reading this about the shelf-life of methanol. A quick interwebs search revealed it does not have an expiration, does not deteriorate, or degrades when stored in an air-tight container. I would still wonder about being in the tank in the trunk with high temperatures over time.

    Here is the receipt from when a dealership replaced mine under the TSB. Hope that helps.
