My #8 goes bye bye and who know's why - OP runs and hides

3v>coyote?

I still love the 5.0's but just leave em stock..

 

[ViciousJay]

as a matter of fact, there were not.. Especially from just a tune on a NA engine.. If so you would have seen a tsb (like the 5.0) claiming not to warrant engines with tunes.

O RLY!?!

Whippled 3V>Stock Coyote>tuned Coyote Piston blower

 

[S197 GT]

Kb>whipple>procharger

I knew that was coming.

No KB for me. Not even for a slamming deal! Gotta change it up.

I'm leaning in Whipple, they are about 2.5 hours from me, and I hate KB's customer service!

Whipple or Procharger?!?

Procharger FTW. Go with the F1A. My buddys car (twinscrewgt on here) made 711rwh at 11lbs with his. 12 rib dedicated belt, giant intercooler, sexy presentation, and big numbers.

Obviously I'm a little biased. The reality is, any of the blowers will make the numbers.

Yes, i deleted my previous posts on s197 because the problem was solved.

For those of you who are svtp members. Here is my post from svtp I said I would post here,

Fellas, this is my car you are discussing. My name on s197 is "35annGT", I would be more than happy if you would like to pm me to give you my cell number and I will tell you my situation. The forum boards are getting old. Yes, i deleted my previous posts on s197 because the problem was solved. I ran a sct "canned" tune for about...a day. Next day my BBr tune was loaded and ran that for a few months, no problems. About a month ago I ordered the lund 93 cam tune, I live about a mile from LRS, the owners car as well as avoid 4 others sitting in the lot are BBR tuned and have had no problems. As well as all the other BBR tuned cars they sell their tuner to. After about a month of my lund tune I had this Issue. Put two and two together Its not hard. And I will post this on s197 so you can see this is a legit post from me.

Wow! Interesting.

So 35annGT - what exactly was fixed?

Nothing, I am having to pay 3k for labor parts gaskets fluids etc

Are you upgrading anything? I can get you a smoking deal on Boss parts.

And, in a couple days I'll have a brand new Boss shortblock I'll be listing in the classifieds.

as for the OP.. sorry to hear that man!

Most of the reputable tuners are recommending throwing in 2-3 gal (to 12-13 gal of 93 octane) of 100 unleaded octane before you go racing your aggressively tuned 93 octane car.

Seems like cheap insurance to me.

Not trying tobe a smart ass, but if that is the case it is not a 93 tune


To me aggressive 93 tune is driver demand table tuned to be more on/off feeling and transfer to op table wot much quicker

FIXED!!!

Tune the car within it's limits and all is well. Tune for beyond it's limits and BOOM goes the piston.

Hmmmm, now I've got extra leverage with the wife to get that Procharger or Whipple kit I was planning on getting next year.

She did just ask what I wanted for my birthday!

Me: Baby, I need to get a blower to keep my # 8 piston intact.

Her: What the hell is a # 8 piston?

Me: It's very expensive!

Her: Damnit Nick! It's always something. Well, if you get a blower the piston will be ok?

Me: Yup!

Her: sigh

Me: Thanks babe! I'll place the order, and we'll know the 5.0 is safe.

Well Nick..........we now know you must be a happy camper, because if she'll SWALLOW that..............

The OP needs to call MMR. If you put factory junk back into that car, you should be spanked with a broken bottle.

Scroll to the very bottom.

 

[retfr8flyr]

I know you're new but you really should check how many members here feel about MMR before you start recommending them!!!
