I’ve actually been throwing the idea around of selling mine too. Haven’t had luck selling the blower setup. Probably easier to sell it with the truck 🤣 Been wanting to get back into another Audi, maybe an S6 or an A8 this time. Loved my S4. Hell, even an A3 with a big turbo would be fun too...

I’m running some slotted only rotors with akebono pads. Again, another upgrade from stock-and recovers quickly-minimal fade, but nothing near a true big brake setup. The other option is to do the 01 aviator setup, which takes the rotors up to 13”( I think). This is the most budget friendly...

His truck is supercharged(M90 I believe).

I’m pretty sure all of those other points have been upgraded(minus gearing) on his truck. Displacement will help, but I don’t think it’s going to be as much as you’ll need(for your app), or rather, want to have on tap. A gear change to 4.10’s would help as well, but 1st gear would be pretty...

Haven’t seen a stroker ST. But a few mustangs with the setup, mostly NA, and a couple turbo. 100k? My blower went on the truck at 195k, and currently sitting at 220k. A recent compression test showed she’s still very healthy. I do have new rod bearings, HV oil pump, and...

Pull the vacuum line to the heater core control valve and see if it changes. I haven’t had mine hooked up for years. Having stagnate coolant sitting in the core just seems like a bad idea.

If you’re not familiar with ac systems, I highly suggest you take it to someone who is. I’ve seen TOO many ac systems with “repairs” performed by inexperienced owners that end up with more issues. I don’t mean to sound rude… but it’ll honestly save you time and money in the long run. Yes...

If there was sediment in the cooling system, it wouldn’t just be on that side of the head. Radiator would be clogged and the rest of the system would have issues as well(ie overheating). If there is a “only that side” issue, it would be a clogged cat causing excess heat on that side. She...

Yup, the passing tq these things have is pretty impressive for such a small displacement V8. Haven’t towed much over 3k, but it did it without breathing heavy.

I’m not on FB. Thanks though!

Update on the Hyperco front coils. They are night and day difference from the stock coils that come from scale. Soooooooo much better. Can’t compare directly to QA1 front coils, but they ride very similar to the rears, which are QA1’s. Fronts are 575lb and rears are 500lb. I don’t think I...

I haven’t dyno’d it. But the datalogs show 61-62lbs/min. I would like to think it’s somewhere around 500whp on 93. That’s impressive for the little M90! I’m guessing your running 20+ deg of timing on the E? I think we have mine around 17ish. It’s done very well considering it’s non-intercooled...

Needed a stickier tire. The Atturo AZ850’s are worth the hype. 285/45’s hook up decently now. Need to build a set of adjustable upper arms to get rid of a tiny bit of camber. 🫣

Bought these to swap back into the truck, decided against it(after dialing in the coil over setup). These are eBay struts, the same that I ran previously (Unity struts) when I cut 2 coils off. Ride was…. Ok. Not great, but not trash. This time I took off 1.5 coils all the way around. This should...

Finally got off my lazy ass and swapped the front coils. Ride is night and day from the “stock” scale springs. The rears were done awhile back. Those are QA1, the fronts are Hypercoil(I think). Got a good deal on them, and they are roughly the same spring rate as the QA1’s for the front would...

Since we are talking tune up….. I noticed an increase in MPG by switching to the 4L8E-A4A injectors. Granted, mine were probably slightly clogged/worn(had 198k on it at that point-didn’t see much trash in the inlet filters however), so some gains were from a new injectors. But I think these...

Something to think about, if you go with a name brand and have someone do it, it’ll probably cost double what a normal paint job will run, if not more. Most spray in liners are 5-800.

No luck on the adapter, forgot to respond yesterday. But I use a small-long funnel and it works just fine. 👍🏼

Will most likely be pulling the blower setup off the truck in the near future. Figured I’d offer y’all first dibs. No issues with the setup, just at the limits with the rods and I don’t want to pull the engine and build it. It’s a Magnuson kit for a mustang, it’s the 1.9l TVS. The rotor pack...

Welding cast is a VERY hard thing to do properly. Even then, it’s maybe a 50/50 chance. With the Mx, you could look at cat temps. But I think this info is just calculated by the ECU. There are no headers for this truck. Well, not drop in anyways. A certain Mustang shorty header fits, but...
