    Rear axle moan fix.

    NOW you're on the same page as me :nice: I've never questioned the quality of the previous 8.8's... read my posts, I've clearly stated that they have been badass. However with the S197's, Ford has changed something in the differential, and it is believed to be the clutches. I didn't...

    Rear axle moan fix.

    metroplex, apparently you've not caught on to the fact that I'm not the only one with problems with the 05+ 8.8. Regarding the moaning... People (including me) are getting the TSB "fix" performed, the moan comes back in about 10-15,000 miles. People (including me) are also trying to "band...

    Rear axle moan fix.

    ... USED TO BE a very good unit. not any more. If you have to rebuild it every 10,000-15,000 miles, it's junk.

    Rear axle moan fix.

    I had the tsb fix performed on my car about 15,000 miles ago, and the moan just came back again. I'm going to add some friction modifier and see if that helps. If it comes back, I'm ditching this POS Ford TracLock and throwing in an Eaton or Auburn or something. I don't know what all Ford...

    Car dyno'd

    I agree... that 108 mph trap speed is the truest dyno there is.

    Full JBA Exhaust System

    JTGrant, when I first installed the longtubes, there was a slight resonance around 2500 or so. The car didn't have many miles on it back then, and the resonance is now pretty much gone. My only guess is now that the car has 30,000 miles on it (only had 10,000 when I installed the longtubes)...

    How to launch this beast?

    my routine is similar to Hoboattacker. With my setup in my sig, I run about 26 psi in my tires all the time including the track. I do only a SMALL burnout, just to clean the dirt off the tires... and stay away from the water box. I rev to about 3500 with the TCS off. I slip the clutch out...

    CMVC delete question

    If you have a 9415 with the SCT canned tune, you indeed do have end user adjustability for the CMRC deletes. I had this, and this file works perfectly fine. However, if you have an XCal that has a "custom" or "internet" tune from shops like Bamachips, Brenspeed, Evolution, etc., then it is...

    Full JBA Exhaust System

    I have the stock mufflers with JBA longtubes & off-road H-pipe and there is NO resonance at all.

    JPC Driveshaft

    I didn't do a before/after dyno, but I can tell you that I wish I'd have done my aluminum driveshaft WAY SOONER. I think it helped more than the 4.10's, on street tires anyway. I got mine from PSI Performance. I picked up 1.05 mph after I installed my aluminum driveshaft & 4.10's... but...

    Get the X-pipe and the Charge motion deletes. Don't forget a new tune for the deletes!! Don't waste your money on the tb or coils. Neither adds SQUAT to these cars. The coils would help a little if you're running ~12# of boost. The charge motion deletes are a GREAT mod on these cars and...

    Comp cams Stage 2 and 3 questions

    What bigcat stated is pretty much the same thing I've read/heard. Everybody with these cams say they idle/drive like stock. Doug @ Bamachips also stated that anything under the Crane "Stage 3" cam isn't worth installing, since his car lost NO driveability or idle issues with the "Bamachips...

    From LS1.com - Lutz says no new Camaro

    You SERIOUSLY had to revive a 2.5 year old thread???? :shrug: I read the first 3 pages of this damn thing thinking "why the hell would GM axe the Camaro at THIS stage??!!!!".... then it hit me.... I looked at the post dates and realized some dumbass decided to bring back a 2.5 year old thread...

    Comp cams Stage 2 and 3 questions

    Guys with the Crane Stage 3 cams are gaining approximately 30 rwhp all throughout the 4,000+ range. Below that, the #'s seem to be +/- a couple hp/tq, which is fine by me. The car makes plenty low end power as-is for daily driving, and I'm never really below 4,000 rpms when racing anyway...

    WTF Neon! Can a GT beat one!?!?!!

    Those SRT-4's respond to mods really well. A couple of my friends around here have had some modded SRT-4's that had some SERIOUS top end. They're definitely "punch buggies" though... only good from a rolling punch.
