  1. 1064HP Corvette

    When I lived in Coal Creek, I would see them and other brands testing pretty regularly. As far as the power, it's nice to have it in an OEM package, but a lot of us have been making more power and more power per liter for quite some time. My 20+ year old S2000 makes ~10hp more per liter on a...
  2. Engine oil additive - Cera Tec

    A lot like the videos... Just a car guy to me with all the other car guys at PRI.
  3. Engine oil additive - Cera Tec

    I know, I've seen the video. I've met the guy a few times as well.
  4. Engine oil additive - Cera Tec

    Buy the correct oil for your use case and don't worry about trying to mess it up with additional additives, since oils have additives.
  5. Is an intercooler worth the effort?

    I did a Mountune intercooler about 2 years ago as I knew I would be towing in hot weather, since that's when racing season is. It helps in that the temps don't reach as high, however, the stock intercooler is pretty good. It's large and because it isn't an additional 20 lbs of metal, it will...
  6. yamahaSHO's Street Truck

    I ran my power into the car and used a fuse under the dash. I did not like fbekr implementation under the hood.
  7. yamahaSHO's Street Truck

    I had to connect the battery power to it. It stopped doing it after that. Yeah, they can add up... But don't think the wife would let me go that far. She just told me when I decided to build this, that she didn't want to know how much it cost. This includes building a new computer. It...
  8. yamahaSHO's Street Truck

    Finally took the truck on a somewhat of a road trip. About a 3 hour drive to go to our SCCA AutoX awards banquet. I haven't hand calculated the fuel yet, but it was right at 26mpg on a coldish, windy day. Yep, I park away from everyone else... At said event, I did receive my trophy for...
  9. yamahaSHO's Street Truck

    This is the right-angle adapter I used. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C5M178GG?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 For the AA Wireless, it's a version 1 and now they're on version 2. However, I have a version 2 in another car and can probably test fitment. v1...
  10. yamahaSHO's Street Truck

    I got tired of having a cable coming off my AA Wireless adapter, so I ordered some right angle adapters and found a decent fit.
  11. How many miles on your 2.3L EcoBoost

    I'll probably hit 8k miles in the next week on my 2022. Been pretty uneventful other than installing a transmission dipstick and finding that it was underfilled from the factory and topping it off improved the issues I was having. Seems Ford is regularly underfilling stuff as the Maverick guys...
  12. Subaru WRX anyone ?

    My STi was more to insure than a Corvette. I tune a lot of Subaru's and they can be fun cars, as long as you can keep mods within reason. There is a cult following with them... Annoyingly to me. The new WRX's can be made to be pretty fast with a couple bolt-ons and a tune, and they are more...
  13. Ranger Turbo Upgrade (Work Turbos)

    Ya'll calling blades "vanes" likes it's a VGT. :p
  14. Engine Replacement at 50k Miles - rod bearing

    That bearing doesn't look spun... Do you have a picture of the spun bearing?
  15. How To Lubricate Your Driveshaft Slip Joint

    Your 8th gear clunk a lot? I found my transmission was low from the factory. Topped it off and it's not been doing the 8th gear clunk. I do need to lube my slip joint as you can feel it. I've only got just under 8k miles on this truck...
  16. PPE Install and removing heat shields

    I would put it in. It's a radiant barrier for heat coming from the cat. The aluminum pan may dissipate heat better, but it will also absorb it better as well.
  17. yamahaSHO's Street Truck

    Checked the fluid level and like many, it was low from the factory. I put about a half a quart in and got it just over the 5 mark (hard to see). I've done two drives since and it's seemed to improve the transmission. Over the two drives, I did not have an 8th gear clunk, which was somewhat...
