I'm testing Amsoil Severe Gear 75w110 in my ptu. Flushed my ptu and installed it last year when I installed my meth system. I checked the oil it last month when I rebuilt my turbos. It's still clear with a hint of gold. Nothing on the magnet. 10,000 hard miles, 13gallons of meth. It should also be noted that I'm running catless downpipes so my ptu temps are musch lower than with running cats.

Ordered up a set of the MSD upgraded COP's in Ford Blue today. Direct from MSD @ $259.95 w/free shipping.

Mfg'er states currently on backorder on/in this color, but a ship date in June. So not to terrible of a wait.

Next up, the upgraded 1700cc larger fuel injectors from DeatschWerks. $950 direct from Mfg'er. Not too shabby either. Gotta see how much O.T. is on this check.

Now that the massive audio upgrade has been paid off in its' entirety, I'm feeling a lil bit frisky.

Oh still fun times left to be had in my SHO!

More to come......

Speaking from experience, but you will NOT be disappointed. Only issue I see is that you are already pushing the most the trans/ptu/rdu can take... you already have a tune just for the dyno at this point cause you were told they couldn't say it wouldn't leave pieces of your drivetrain all over the track... not sure what the HPFP will buy you?

Thinking full E85 setup? I know Rich is working on that too... but he has yet to install the injectors and the LPFP isn't holding up....

It wouldn't be any fun of me to reveal everything all at once now.

Tsk tsk tsk ***wags the pointer finger playfully***

You good sir suck! Even though I am highly disappointed in your lack of information, I am still excited to see what you have planned...

Well my anniversary of my hire date is 08/13.

As such, I get my bonus, longevity, and uniform allowance check(s) at that time (play money so to speak).

So I am essentially just purchasing various parts for the time being, with the intent of install to occur sometime in August.

Then another trip out to LMS for (yet more) custom dyno tune session(s).

All in due time my friend.

I anticipate purchasing LMS's (lower of the two) HPFP's, as I am running a dual nozzle, 15lb each side injector of methanol. No real need to purchase the highest one. I have never been a fan of the E85, and have no desire to (ever) run it in my SHO.

Also will purchase two new, higher capacity, aftermarket LPFP's too.

I mean I am resigned to the trans breaking at some point, but before I cross that bridge, these aforementioned purchases (& anticipated purchases) are essentially a must anyhow.

So like any good puzzle, all the necessary pieces must be in place.

I have been liking your "safety net" mantra, and am combining those concepts, along with my own, for the ultimate SHO therein.

SHOdded · May 16, 2018, 08:09:24 PM

No question this is exciting. Really gonna put that built block to the test. Good luck, hope a new frontier is established successfully!

I highly doubt LMS has your tunes to rely on the meth... nothing I have seen from them would suggest them risking it.

But I am super pleased with the additional safety I have with the HPFP and the support LMS has provided.

Curious what "upgraded" lpfp you are referring too.... I have a spare bucket and pump you can have if you need one for fittament purposes...
