    Best Auto Tranny cooler?

    There is a variable for trans temp in the EEC that the flash tuner can monitor. I forget the actual abreviation for trans temp. I just go to transmission variables and scroll down until I reach a variable that is a temperature and not the ECT variable. Propellerhead should remember the...

    Best Auto Tranny cooler?

    At first I was monitoring the peak trans temp with a temperature strip stuck to the bottom of the tranny oil pan. Then when I got a flash tuner I used it to monitor the trans temp. I have learned that I can beat on the car as much as I would like and the temp will not go past 190f. Most of...

    Best Auto Tranny cooler?

    Just so you know... There are fittings that will work without cutting the line. I have posted the part #s several times over the last few years.

    Diablo tune

    Correct... Thermostat and Tune = the complete cooling package They work together. Thermostat = mechanical Tune = electrical AKA electro mechanical system. I just could not stand the idea of spraying (N2O) when the ECT was in the 215+ range. The fringe benifit I have realized is...

    Please help troubleshoot my problem.

    Could it just be drivetrain slop??? I have the same basic issues and I am positive that it's drivetrain slop. It has progressively gotten worse since about 20K now I'm at 45K+. It really does not bother me very much. BTW my engine definatly does not idle as well as it did with stock...

    THIS SUCKS..............Vt stage 1 cams

    Just call up MPH and tell them your situation. Wideband a/f meters are affordable now and so are SCT Xcal programmers. I would think with WOT and part throttle data logging (including a/f) a good tuner would be able to nail your tune within one or two trys.

    Predator fan setting and pinging ?????

    For my N/A tune I run 87 octane and +10 timing. I am also running 2 step cooler copper plugs, 180 thermostat, 15 deg lower fan set points, and 7 richer. Adding fuel will help if you have just a little pinging. Otherwise keep removing timing until the pinging stops.

    180* Thermostat ??

    Correct... But the installing thermostat without adjusting the fan on/off set points is kink of a waste.

    Knock Sensor With Closed Loop Timing Retard !!!!!!!!!

    I don't have an 03/04 cobra engine so detonation is really bad. Also I would like to altogether avoid detonation, therefore closed loop knock\timing control. The product looks reall neat but only has 3 or 4 outputs so it would not work on 99+ cars. I am suprised that someone else does not...

    4.10's in an Auto Video?

    A trans cooler is a good idea for any 4r70w.

    Knock Sensor With Closed Loop Timing Retard !!!!!!!!!

    Let me begin by saying that I really like lots of torque, so I added a NX kit to my little 281. I also like having a reliable engine! Some people don't think that power and reliability mix, but I think it is a great combination. I would like to extract more power out of my current setup...

    Made up my mind...getting nitrous

    Get the MSD digital window switch. I run Awsfa-12c Motorcraft plugs. 2 step cooler Run the stock tune for 100 and less. Go ahead and pick up a FPSS, only $50. You might want to get a wideband a/f meter while you are at it, just to be safe. Also a bottle opener, purge, heater, 2 1/6" N2O...

    4.10's in an Auto Video?

    Propellerhead, Driving 70 mph in 3rd @ 3000 rpms the TFT temp stabilizes at 175-177 with 83 deg weather. Just cruising 20-40 mph the temp stabilizes at 173. You just need a big trans cooler!!!

    What wideband kit are you using?

    Have you concidered a Dynojet wideband commander? I was looking at the innovative lm-1 but got a good deal on the WBC. It has all the basic features you need: rpm, tp, a/f, analog input 1 & 2 data logging; Programmable output; Autometer 2 1/6" a/f gauge; Auto calibration; Bosh LSU-4 sensor...

    slipping tranny????

    Change your trans fluid and filter. Then see how it does... The 4r70w is a decent transmission.

    Just installed NOSzle!

    Congrats on the install :nice: Just make sure you have some cooler copper plugs and enjoy... BTW most wet systems experience a brief lean spike, it should be ok as long as you keep it to 125.

    The dreaded siezed nut and air tools

    Oh Yea... You have to love the air tools. If you ever have to remove the strut again, just use an impact and it should come right back off. BTW a bad bearing in a CC plate will cause the same sound you described. I have had both problems...

    ecsta supra 712 compared to nt555

    I just have to add this: I had had 712s on a previous vehicle, and they sucked big time! But I decided to try Kuhmo Ecsta MX tires this time, they rock. 15000 miles, that has been standard and the MXs reproduced that with better wet dry traction than stock gatorbacks or yokohamas. I am...
