    Need help, I've ran out of ideas..

    My first though when I started reading this was your IAC valve but it seems you have fixed that. Now assuming all the vacuum lines are secured and there are no stragglers you could check a few other things. One would be the PCV valve. I believe if you PCV goes it will idle higher but you...

    Tires for the occasional weekend racer?

    Hey so I have a supercharged 2V making ~400rwhp and it is my daily driver (I don't have to drive far). But I occasionally like to take it to the track and make some passes. I currently am running ****ty tires on the stock 8" wheels. I plan on going to a staggered set up (9" front and 10.5")...

    Handling....what's handling??

    Hey thanks everyone for the advice. Unfortunately, my 04 came with the Eibach springs installed so i have no way of comparing them to the stock ride. It seems a lot of people are getting into arguments on this post and that really wasn't my intention. Everyone has there own views on the...

    Handling....what's handling??

    @txredgt yea only springs they were on the car when I bought it. That was roughly 20,000 miles ago and there is currently 85k on the clock. I am assuming it has the stock bushings in it. @joshjwc9 Thanks alot that was definitely very helpful. It sounds like that would definitely tighten...

    Handling....what's handling??

    I recently went on a trip to California and was lucky enough to drive the infamous Glendora Mountain Road (GMR) in my friends AWD twin turbo 3000GT. If you are not familiar with GMR it is basically like a mountainous racetrack. I am assuming it is some sort of gift from the racing gods for...

    Anyone with an intercooled Vortech???

    @jymboslice I understand with a centrifugal supercharger that your boost builds linearly with rpm. However by going to a smaller pulley wouldn't this effectively increase the slope of the boost vs. rpm graph? You would be getting more boost at a lower rpm with a 2.8 pulley opposed to a 3.6...

    Anyone with an intercooled Vortech???

    Thanks everyone for the info. I plan on doing it myself in my garage with most likely the help of my dad. He welds both steel and aluminum and I plan on learning in the near future so I will most likely weld beads around the tubes instead of couplers. However, a good point is made when it...

    Anyone with an intercooled Vortech???

    Hey I installed a Vortech V2 a few months ago and am thinking about adding an intercooler. I would like to retain the same power but err on the side of safety and dial the boost back a bit (currently running 11psi on a 3" pulley). Anyone install an intercooler on their Vortech I am looking on...

    Dropping K Member/Oil Pan removal

    Alright so my Vortech oil return line to the oil pan is becoming a huge pain in the ass. I have decided I am going to pick up a new pan weld in a bung and be over with it so there are no more leaks. However I am looking for a right up on dropping the K member/removing the oil pan. Has anyone...

    Terminator vs. Vortech GT who's faster?

    He bought the car with an aftermarket intake and mufflers and just put on an off road X pipe. We were supposed to run tonight (him having only those mods). It just so happens that today is when he is taking his car in to get the new intercooler, pulley, etc. installed and tuned so we won't be...

    Terminator vs. Vortech GT who's faster?

    Unfortunately I just got off the phone with my friend he just got some new parts for his Cobra and is installing/getting it tuned on Wednesday so he most likely won't make it to the track. He is getting a 2.8 pulley and larger dual pass intercooler put on.... all I can say is he must have been...

    Terminator vs. Vortech GT who's faster?

    @screaminGT In response the injector question I was unable to purchase FRPP 42lb injectors. It seems that for right now you cannot by them new and could either use the 39lb injectors (bad idea it is set up for the 4V head) or make a big jump up to 60's. As robmac36067 said everything...

    Vortech Oil Return Line Leaking :/

    Well that was the case initially. I had an initial leak used some JB weld and it worked perfect no leaks. Actually I found the JB to work better than the RTV but it kind of depends on the case and currently the leak is very minor. However, after attached the new hose it really proved to me...
