    when considering nitrous... consider what?

    I am by no means an expert on nitrous but I can share what I have learned. (I am only talking about wet kits on 99-04 4.6L) As others have stated N2O + Lean a/f = bad N20 + too much timing = bad N2O + Fuel + low RPM = unhappy intake Those basic rules seem verry simple but there are many...

    Reset the Computer with Pulleys?

    There is no need to reset the computer after installing ud pulleys. You are just freeing up some power by minimizing the accessory parasitic losses.

    "Clicking" on WOT shifts with an auto? Help! :(

    Like others have said the sound is likley pre-detonation (spark knock). If I remember you were turning off the torque modulation in the Predator. Doing that will allow the computer to run more timing during a shift (like 5 speeds). It is great for leaving rubber 1-2 but puts a load on the...

    1/4 Mile With No Serpentine Belt ???

    Please do not take your belt off unless you HAVE AN ELECTRIC WATER PUMP. The difference in power was supprising... But not recommended for the street. A quick question: Why did I loose power brakes with the belt off? I did not see a power brake pump only a power steering pump...

    1/4 Mile With No Serpentine Belt ???

    Yes as initially posted I have a Mezerie pump. But without power steering or power brakes driving was difficult. Has any one tried this at the track?

    1/4 Mile With No Serpentine Belt ???

    I don't think it is possible to have just the crank and alternator on the serpentine belt. I am going to yank the belt and take a test drive.

    1/4 Mile With No Serpentine Belt ???

    I have had a Mezerie electric water pump for almost two years and just now thought of removing the serpentine belt at the track. Would I damage the engine or accessories running the car without a belt on at all? Of course I would need an extra battery at the track in case the car was run long...

    Predator tunes - what #'s are you using?

    Yea with a stock trans the factory shift points should be perfect for the street. The only reason I modified mine is because of the J-Mod shift kit. The 1-2 accumulator fills much faster therefore the shift is completed sooner and at a lower rpm than stock. So I used the predator to increase...

    Predator tunes - what #'s are you using?

    RedMustang, Dude something seems wrong with your last post. If the 1-2 shift point is set at 5250rpm in the predator the actual shift should occur several hundred rpms later. There is a time dalay between the ecc commanding a shift and the actual shift occuring. Shift solenoids have to...

    Predator tunes - what #'s are you using?

    I went out and got my notecard out of the car... I have to write things down to keep from forgetting them. Stock Diablo tune has 1-2 @ 5700rpm I got up to 5950rpm for 1-2 that made my observed shift point 6100. Right now I am using 5800rpm in the diablo and the observed shift point is...

    Drive Gear on Oil Pump is Broken

    The overall ballance of the crank could be affected by the harmonic balancer/crank pulley. That could cause mechanical interference or resonance with the oil pump gears.

    What are the CONS of an electric water pump?

    My car never overheated with the stock water pump or the Mezerie. The electric water pump circulates coolant at lest as well as the stock one.

    What are the CONS of an electric water pump?

    The pump receives power through relay contacts. You have to install a single pole relay that closes when the ignition key is ON. The install is simple as long as you can follow directions. Connect a switched hot wire from the wiring harness to one side of the relay coil and the other side to...

    What are the CONS of an electric water pump?

    If you are wondering about getting an electric water pump... When my Mezerie fails I will replace it with the stock pump and order another Mezerie ($320) :nice:. For $320 you get 8-14 lb/ft tq from idle to redline and it will last for 2-5 (or more) years depending on how many hours you drive...
