    10r80 swap

    @TMac @DetroitST yea I've held off for now. Shifts are very "hard" in sport mode, reminds me of really banging the gears in a stick but then again I'm not riding around in sport mode 24/7. We'll see what happens. As far as warranty I think I'd be shit outta luck with the mods I've done.

    Smoking on startup after sitting

    I had this problem too, and would get really bad (plumes of oil leaving red lights). Looks like the UPR can had too much vacuum put on the 50% restrictor and it appears to have solved the issue. Still monitoring it.

    All things Hellcat (and other platforms) vs The Explorer

    Yea, I think I've got the ZL1 1LE. Advanced trac would have only affected my launch gear slightly maybe 10-15% power reduction nothing crazy. There's not much left for me to do except turbos and I'm not sure I wan't to go that far, especially if it means running an ~E50/E60 blend (I prefer the...

    All things Hellcat (and other platforms) vs The Explorer

    Traction was fine, no marks laid down but I did forget to turn off Advanced Trac too. Need to data log for Adam running a little rich and there's a little more power he wanted to put in anyway after the trans broke it. Haven't found any (trackhawks/trx) willing to run. Got a run against a 2022...

    Rear end damage

    @C4talyst I've replaced the rear sub without encountering a failure. I knew the proposed mods would almost guarantee a failure (e85 + supporting bolt ons) and I didn't want to wait on Ford to make it right. RareFab did the installation and I have peace of mind so I'm good.

    The ULTIMATE Dyno / V-Dyno Thread

    @DetroitST car threw a couple codes and RareFab had me bring it back just to make sure everything was ok and run a full diagnostic. The trans was slipping because ford sent me the truck 2.5 qts low on trans fluid, when I initially brought it they had to add a qt of oil too. So now all go and...

    10r80 swap

    @DetroitST group buy starts with 3 ppl all trans must be sent in at the same time and they shave off 10% of the $5,998.00 price, trans would be rated for 1000hp. If we get 10 ppl they knock off 15% each order. I called and spoke with Karen.

    That makes me feel so much better, I only have about 700 miles. Sounds like there's some hope lol

    Newly installed Steeda springs and exhaust.

    @CLAYMAN I havent seen or heard any rubbing I'll look again today, didn't do the install myself RareFab in Boyton Beach did. I'm assuming the middle setting but I'll double check with them. Need to bring it back to detune a little the E85 from ZFG until my trans brakes in. I'm going back up this...
