the reason for the shutters is the allow for the car to warm up to operating temperature while staying closed. once it reaches optimal temp it then opens them up. should it warm up without them open? absolutely! will it take longer in an enviroment that has cold winters? absolutely! Are they...

to add to this it seems the transmission needs to be warm in order to maintain high levels of power. In my experience with this "issue" when the car is cold it will fall on its face with hard launches or heavy rolling pulls with the Tune. Currently being de-tuned I am not running into the same...

just de-tuned and the car shut its self off. Scared the shit out of me thinking someone bumped me.

if it comes down to something where i need to get a whole new transmission, I definitly will be looking at the rebuild option.

at least the ZFG 91/93 tune. it really makes the car wake up and really fun to drive.

I went from E50 to OEM and my foot-to-the-floor full throttle is a mere half throttle on E50. OEM off the line - get up is tranquil and non-pretentious with a gentle push into your seat and a feeling that you should be playing some sarah mclaughlin Wings of an Angel . While E50 launches are a...

yeah looks like sac raceway opened back on april 1st. pretty sure my transmission is already hurt so might as well send it

would love to meet a fellow ST owner here in sac. cmon out if she gives you the go ahead. ill be out there at 5pm

oh no shade towards Torrie - his responsivness and customer service was great I just got a canned tune from him and he never asked for data logs with my 5th Gen. He asked me what i wanted for performance and then sent the file to me less than 2 hours later. maybe that was an extra charge? *srugs*

Hey Norcal folks, it looks like sac raceway is back open and Weds night drags are back on. Im going to be out there tomorrow night with a few friends if anyone is down to meet for a few runs.

Unleashed is good but his tunes are "Canned" as well. I had one on my 5th gen Explorer and no data logging was done. Just purchased it and was sent the tune file. great response and customer service though.

there has been a few issues with the clamps on the Thermal. some have had to change the clamps to something different due to the clamps failing to stay tight. I actually am having an issue with my rear muffler sagging due to the clamps not holding tight enough. i might put a quick tack on it...

with my Thermal 3 you get a deep exterior sound as shown in my video below but you do get a fair amount of cabin sound tbh. My GF said the other day "why does your car always sound like you're going so fast even though you're not?" https://youtube.com/shorts/naj5Dc9NZ84?feature=share

nice find. well, there we go!

my anecdotal review of towing while tuned was there were no issues while towing around 4700 on mainly flat roads while being on ZFG91 tune. im not sure about my E50 tune but id venture to say with it should be ok as long as staying out of high boost situations but again, anecdotal. also in all...

HA! im pretty close - generally warming up coffee at around 1130 if I dont have to go into the office lol oh yeah I know the area, worked out there in my earlier years, I live in Orangevale now. I have been trying to get some sac area ST's together but its been tough with it pissing rain these...

man you and me sound the same...crack of noon is early round here! :LOL:

pfft!! where?? im paying 4.99, granted I have to also put in E so i need to stay at the same station.

Isnt like the explorer of old - it will slide sideways if you throw it and it will stay upright. But as TMac said, its not well suited for drifting really at all. One being that its AWD and it doesnt have the power to get it to continue the slide.
