    Gearhead intercooler and csf radiator upgrade

    Whoever puts it in for you will do it the easiest way possible because of time, i doubt they will pull the radiator. Ive installed a few of them for people on here that are local to me and its not “needed”. Just alot of extra work for not really added insurance. Sure the engineering way that is...

    Gearhead intercooler and csf radiator upgrade

    “Better performance (heat management) than stock an since it's coming out why not replace it labor is free.” Since when does the radiator need to come out to do an intercooler? Ive had like 4 different types and never touched the radiator.

    So what did you do to your SHO today!?

    After like 8 years or so i went back to factory springs from H&R. Car rides very nice again. I do the best i can with it but paint is coming off the front bumper. Ill get a new one eventually. Almost 160k miles….on the body

    Boost leak

    That’s a lot of miles, you should check all the piping and small boost/mercury lines

    is this okay? what is wrong?

    That’s how you can tell if a turbo car is tuned, it leaves a black cloud usually small. Safer to run rich than to run lean at wot. Lots of temperature very quick, gasoline cools the cylinder. Too hot makes the top ring and possibly others expand very quickly and can cause damage if the end...

    Finally released...Raybestos!

    Most likely because the sourced a 2013 and up transmission code when developing. Man do they grip. I barely push the pedal and get all the idiot lights for wheel spin but that’s mostly the upgraded torque converter. Shirts are solid with the upgraded clutch packs.

    Front heated seats stopped working

    I got it working good. Just have to button it back up with a wire soldered to it. Figured I’d post it so others can see what the internals look like. Taped up the link pretty good and reinstalled. Thank God seat is simple to take out with 4 13mm bolts. So if you need to replace the controller...

    Front heated seats stopped working

    Bought a cheap aftermarket controller for now with intentions of fixing the old one. Till I took it apart and found out why it didn’t work. May still fix it. Will probably just have my electrical engineer friend jip some wires into it. I’ll keep it updated. Good chances the controller is ok...

    Scammers Monitoring Threads

    For people who dont know. When you pay via paypal family and friends there is no refunds and even paypal wont get you your moneys back. I do need a rear window seal also for my 1990.

    Water Leak Near sunroof

    Find the t it ty up in the fender behind the fender liner and rub it. Stuff will come out. They usually just clog up at the t it ty. If no help then shove weed wacker rope down the sunroof drain on the corners down the A pillar.

    2015 SHO PCM?

    Sorry for the stupid question. So you have a tune correct? You need a custom tune for the car to work with a 3 bar sensor at the manifold. If you dont have a custom 3 bar tune then put an oem map sensor back on

    SHO engine troubles

    Thats good if its near zero, usually means its a valve no fully closing. When i scored my walls and had a dead misfire i still had upwards of 90psi. Remove the intake manifold and manually clean the valves with crc gdi intake valve and turbo cleaner spray. It works better visually than anything...

    SHO engine troubles

    Why would you blindly throw parts at it? Do a compression test and a leak down test to make sure ifs not the cylinder walls or a gunked up valve that is not closing fully as is common on gdi engines.

    Burn't oil smell in park or reverse but no leaks detected.

    Do you know the difference of fluid smells when burning? Oil and trann y fluid do not smell the same. Neither does the ptu gear oil. Sorry i cant be there to smell it for you to tell you what it is. My best guess would be the ptu vent pushing some fluid because its probably caked up inside

    SSM/AD mount torque specs?

    All bolts actually have to be lubricated when torquing them to have a true torque value. Thats why engine block studs or any bolt from ARP says on its instruction sheet to make sure bolts are lubricated before you apply torque. Thats why every bolt you pull off the chassis of the SHO has a form...

    Full Size Spare Options (20") Needed

    Thats not much of a difference and in reality the tires are never truly to spec and different wear along the corners is more different than this. Its either the left or right on the front that wears faster anyway because of the torque and weight. The 18 inch rim is perfect but im sure the person...
