    Battery Recommendations

    I daily drove on a Braille 17lb race battery for 1.5yr. It started my car every time without problem. BUT, my alternator kicked the bucket maybe 2mo back and I have a hypothesis that the small battery with small capacity over worked the alternator, over heated it and killed it. I now reserve the...

    Surge, not the refreshing drink.

    LPFP took a **** on me so I replaced it. I'm having the turbos replaced next month so I'll have the wastegates checked or replaced. Would you do stock or the turbosmart?

    ATP Turbo upgrade help

    So the Turbosmart wastegates would be a waste of money?

    2013+ SHO Carbon Fiber Trunk Project

    DM me, we can talk about it. It would be cheaper in the long run for me. You already have the tools and such, plus I would waste a lot of CF, resin, FB etc etc trying to learn the process.

    2013+ SHO Carbon Fiber Trunk Project

    If you think your craft is honed, I would gladly send you and pay for you to replicate a sunroof and the quarter window on the rear door. I have bought cores of those pieces just for that. The glass of the sunroof is something like 19 or 21lbs. The rear door quarter window is pointless IMO and...

    When it rains, it pours.. fluids apparently.

    So my mech just showed me that my water pump is leaking so I have a big job coming up. I was driving around slow through the city yesterday for a photoshoot and it would squeak on speed bumps. So I get under it to WD40 bushings and start to see more and more leaks. I have oil dripping from a...

    2013+ SHO Carbon Fiber Trunk Project

    I can attest the work and skill required to do what you have done. If that isn't a multi piece mold, I would be surprised. The learning curve to CF and mold making in general is almost vertical.

    Performance exhaust manifolds

    Just thought I would circle back about Hellcats, real quick. I did a 60 roll against a stock one tonight and he pulled on me like I pull on Prius'. It was impressive and embarrassing.

    2013+ SHO Carbon Fiber Trunk Project

    Seems like a logical mod for the pure race guys that are chasing 10s. Weight is racing. I read that you are going to make fenders as well, If the SHO emblem is not eliminated on them, I would be interested.

    So center tail lights go away as well?

    Engine dies

    That is pretty similar to what my in tank fuel pump was doing right before it died.

    NX WET KIT

    a 50 shot took you from 12.8 to 12.4?? That's impressive. Dry shot?

    NEW GUY PURPLE/BLUE SHO with a LEAD FOOT

    Just came upon this, great looking car man. You have a good amount of mods. if you haven't seen the latest Engine Masters, you should check it out. They proved pretty hard that meth should be ran at 100% always. The water it is mixed with just takes up space in the combustion chamber and reduces...

    Upgraded Turbos

    ^ Seriously though, who is in charge of this forum? The word police are n.a.z.i. level.

    Meth Bung Plug for EPP Noisemaker delete?

    I believe the hole is tapered because the nozzles are tapered. So you would need a tapered plug

    Very Impressed . . .

    Or just look at the commanded PSI on your log.

    Very Impressed . . .

    HUH? I'm talking commanded PSI. What you see during first spool, before the wastegate or right as you close the throttle should be erroneous. Why would anyone bring up any other number when talking boost?

    Very Impressed . . .

    I got the 2.5bar when I started tuning as well. I don't think my engine is going to see over 21.5ish psi of boost so I didn't see a reason to go with the 3bar. But hold the phone, I too have a unleashed tune that has been dialed in with over 16 revisions and he has me at 15psi. He has you at...

    performance headers?

    I've seen them compared in person, the 13 year model and up is much less restrictive. Would be a cheap, simple upgrade.
