I ran an IDP Extreme Race tune and had a rough time getting it to shift right. WFO it would shift to 5th then immediately in to 6th. While trying to get that sorted out, it wouldn't go into OD unless you were above 2200 in the previous shifts. The end result was frustration a tune that short...

1.893 60 ft time. That was before adding the Pro-Comp traction bars. I plan to hit the track this summer and see how much they help. If the improvements in the sand are in indication, it should be interesting.

While I didn't see anything like that, my turbo wouldn't cycle properly until I re-plugged in the EGR valve itself. It's laying on the intake manifold, but it completing the connection enabled my turbo to cycle properly.

Kind of hard to argue with that logic.

It really depends on what you re doing with it. If you're hauling/towing, then yeah, gear it. If it's a daily commuter, then a set of gears might help, but not required, it's personal preference at that point.

:whs: I forgot all about having the converter completely seated. The measurements were to confirm that the snout is the right OD and/or not mushroomed as previously suggested.

Having run Brand E garbage and SCT, I'm inclined to agree with Mike. My first post Brand E SCT tune was IDP's Aggressive street, it felt like the "Hot Unlock" (who thought up those stoopid names?). I loaded up Extreme Race, WHAT A BEAST compared to Brand E "tuning". While mpg stayed about the...

The last time that I had a problem like that it turned out that I had forgotten to take the pilot busing out of my crate motor's crank. Therefore, I would measure the OD of the converter snout and the ID of the crank center. It sounds like there is an interference issue there.

.093!?! That seems huge considering that Nitrous Oxide Systems calls for a .067 front and rear for their 125 plate shot. Is this .093 jet a recommendation from a manufacturer or through trial and error?

I know nitrous is an oxygenator, but would you spray it before or after the turbo? The plate I have on my Mustang is pretty simple, but adding a turbo adds more questions for me. Considering it's easier to fill a water meth sump than a nitrous bottle, does water meth make any hp or does it just...

Not that I am planning to juice my 6.0, but do you spray it into the elbow or before the turbo? Does water/meth make hp like nitrous does? Or is it just an EGT lowering tool?

It's not so much that you are naming you backspace as it is the 05 and up use a different backspace than the 99-04. Therefore, 99-04 wheels on an 05 and up will stick out farther than wheels for an 05 and up.

Why not run 10s front and rear but with less back spacing on the rears? Say a 6" backspace (typical on most 05s and up) on the front and a 4.25 or 4.5 backspace (typical on 99-04s) on the rear.

I was pretty spooled up on 5R110 issues when mine self destructed (thanks Edge Products :flipa:) but I seem to have flushed most of it now. I do recall the hesitation between D and R going both directions. I seem to also recall a code of P0730 (referred to as the kiss of death). Not aware of...

Thanks for the clarification. I thought there was a tube they went through and I agree that the flow blockage is nominal. We're going to skin that y-pipe cat a LITTLE differently than you did, but the end results should be the same.

Pretty cool :thumbup: Considering that I have never looked inside of one of these, do the bolts go through a tube or post that must also be cut to expose the innerds? I have a spare intake now, so I was wondering what I could do with it. Also, how did that modification at the top of the y pipe...

It would be easier for you to Google Smokey than it would be for me to explain him here. In short, when he wasn't thinking outside of the box making things work better than anyone else could, he was doing things like welding a differential cover plate to the back of a 9 inch rear end under an...

Are you going to be using this with your modified y-pipe?

What EXACTLY were they wanking about? The BFGs on my truck are D rated for 3195 and Discount mounted them like it was cool. That's ONLY an additional 109 lbs over what those Nittos are rated. Maybe it's because I had a go around with the IDIOTS at Discount in Las Vegas that I don't care too...

That's a definite possibility, my lift springs don't have the over load. If you get the Pro Comp bars, they are two separate kits, the mounts and the bars. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/exp-72099b/overview/make/ford/model/f-250-super-duty...
