    Hot starting issues

    Fuel pump upgrade? Wow. It has to be a fuel pressure/fuel pump issue. At least that makes the most sense. Is there a better aftermarket fuel pump for our cars? Or are we stuck with the crappy ones forever? :( My car starts okay in the mornings, but hot starts don't startup so...

    4.10 and Auto Tranny Shift Smoothness = other GT owners' opinions!

    You're a wealth of tranny information, heh heh Thanks for your help. My Predator tuner doesn't adjust for these issues, as far as I am aware. I'm not sure if a custom tune can do this or not. The may adjust things that their tuner does not allow the user to adjust - I'm not sure. I'd...

    GTO,CHARGER quicker the the STANG

    Mustang looks are much better. I agree. Both those cars don't have any looks NEAR the quality of the '05 Mustang. The GT kicks both their butts all over the place. :D

    Catback or X-pipe?

    The stock cat-back with a high-flow X midpipe would sound good, plus give you much better flow since the stock cat back isn't very restrictive. The stock cat back is not mandrel bent like most aftermarket cat backs are, so you will have more narrow spots in the bends for exhaust to blow...

    4.10 and Auto Tranny Shift Smoothness = other GT owners' opinions!

    Smoothing out the "gear hang" :) and good news! I appreciate it! :flag: Well, I got my Transmission oil and filter redone today. Wow! I'm glad I did. That made a nice difference. I guess my oil was getting a wee bit old, and maybe low too. My car is set to 25+ PSI on the shift...

    total waste to mod an auto v6?

    If I had a V6, I'd add a duel exhaust (magnaflow for a 6 probably) and I'd fix up its looks. That's one thing about my GT I wish I would have done is go for the looks a little more. Usually I don't care that much about looks and more about performance. Lately though, I've realized that if you...

    What will a torque converter do for my car? I was looking at the converter they have for my year model (Ford AODE/4R70W Part # PTC-11AODE) and it says it goes 2400-2800 depending on the car's power curve. What is the stock converter on a 2003 GT rated? Also, what difference am I going...

    4.10 and Auto Tranny Shift Smoothness = other GT owners' opinions!

    Predator r50c Thanks! I think that might be a solution until they update. If you want, you can email me the r50c file. Will it work with my GT since you have a Mach? I know the Cobra's predator is different, so I wasn't sure about the Mach since it's a 4 valve. PM me and I'll drop you...

    4.10 and Auto Tranny Shift Smoothness = other GT owners' opinions!

    Thanks for the help! Here's a question: Thanks for that great post. That should help me out a lot. I'll do some research on those topics/products you mentioned and see what I can come up with. :) I'm looking at this page: http://www.artcarr.com/catalog/ford-B-D-H.php What would product...

    4.10 and Auto Tranny Shift Smoothness = other GT owners' opinions!

    I don't think the predator is a bad tuner, I just think it has a glitch they haven't taken care of yet. As far as I can tell everything else works well, so I can't complain too much. I think that the product should work completely when I get it though, not 95% complete. What can be done to...

    4.10 and Auto Tranny Shift Smoothness = other GT owners' opinions!

    Ha ha, oh boy. Here we go. I would do that, but the only problem is the Factory HP Tune in the diablosport predator has a glitch where the rear axle ratio will not work. If I install the Factory HP Tune and set my rear gear ratio to 4.09, my speedo will show me going 80 when I'm really...

    4.10 and Auto Tranny Shift Smoothness = other GT owners' opinions!

    Possibly the stock torque converter then? Thanks rjstaaf. I will get that done asap. So would I be better off upgrading my torque converter then, since the stock one clashes with 4.10? Or should I just get the one I have tuned? Torque Converters and their install aren't exactly...

    Original Flowmaster 40 Series

    I have a weird combo! I think the Flowmaster 40 series has a great musclecar tone. Flowmaster has more of a hollow rumble than the other brands. I would say MAC or Flowmaster either one would be great, if you want that sound. Currently I have Original 40 Flows on my car. I had Magnaflow...

    4.10 and Auto Tranny Shift Smoothness = other GT owners' opinions!

    No, I haven't changed them. I have 38,000 miles on the car. I have not changed my transmission fluid or filter. The fluid level is not low last time I checked.

    4.10 and Auto Tranny Shift Smoothness = other GT owners' opinions!

    Chip shift points/shift PSI? May I ask, do you know what PSI your chip sets your shifts to, plus the shift points (if it modifies those at all)? I may use that information when Diablo updates the predator revision to do partial-throttle shift points. If my car shifts while I'm letting...

    4.10 and Auto Tranny Shift Smoothness = other GT owners' opinions!

    Hey guys. I have a 4.10 rear and an automatic transmission. My car seems to shift more jerky since the 4.10 install even though I have it set to 4.09 with my Diablosport Predator tuner. I have made sure my shift settings are setup for the smoothest possible shift, such as setting all...

    Cam Work - cost vs. performance

    Hey all. I wanted to know a good ballpark figure for having a shop install new cams. I've heard they can give around 30HP extra, plus a great sound. Also, what kind of tuning would need to be done after that? I have a Diablosport Predator tuner. Would I be able to do the tuning that I...

    I Can't Decide!!!

    4.10 I agree. Go 4.10. I have an auto so it's a little different, but I have 4.10. My only complaint is the transmission doesn't really "agree" with the 4.10s as well as it did the stock 3.27s. If I had a manual, no doubt I would use 4.10. 4.30 for autos is an even better choice.

    Hot starting issues

    Approximately how long have you all had your cars, or how many miles have you put on them when the issue started? For me it's been around the 35000-37000 mark, I would say. I've had the car slightly over 1 year.
