What have you done to your Ecoboosted vehicle today?

On my 2010 they didn’t even want to dyno tune my single nozzle meth setup... I was told to get a dyno tune I would have to pay to have it converted....

At the end of the day they are a business trying to make money... but if BPD1151 can run his monster on a single pump with two nozzles then there is no reason upgraded wheels can’t IMHO..

I like LMS as they have pretty rock solid tunes and the support is good. I do question their business practices at times which I have never been shy about.

I have question pertaining to your build as it relates to the meth system.

Are you running dual Alky pumps with your dual nozzle setup?

I am running a SINGLE PUMP with two 15lb. nozzles.

I am no expert, never claimed to be, so I can't vouch for whom you spoke with, nor is it my business to override what you've been told.

However with that caveat prefaced, all I can say is, that on my set up, it works PERFECTLY FINE.

It makes sense that a vendor would hold a preference (in this case, the DP injection set up versus my own set up) but preferences aside, it shouldn't be mandatory to have one over the other, and/or withhold services due to not having set up 'A' and not setup 'B'.

But again, I am not the vendor and I don't offer services, so I can't speak for anything you heard, and/or were told.

Hope that answers your question(s).
 
Thank you guys. My whole build is pretty much complete, now I just need a Dyno tune to bring it all together. Then they throw this curve ball my way, A quite expensive one at that. I installed my meth setup in summer of 17, watched lms YouTube tune a few 400+awhp shos and flexes and now they're treating me as though my alky kit is obsolete. I plan to speak to them in person to possibly work something out. Otherwise, I may go SBS route, and tour a few tuners.

Finally got all the parts from the PI installed on the SHO last night. Just gotta top off the coolant and take it for a road test and it'll be ready for the track to open tonight.
 
Had a helper today! Got my SHO all shined up... and my daughter got a bath by collateral...

I installed that Heat Sleeve around the waste-gate hose.. The 1/2" sleeve fit's perfectly around it and protects the hose from the thermostat housing & elements. Z  :)

Decided to delete the rear mufflers but used some resonated Borla tips. Kinda wish I had done what Gray Brick did though Lol.

I found the LEFT WHEEL BEARING LOOSE with more than 1/4 play after removing axle nut........

The LEFT DRIVERS SIDE looked to be more worn IMO based on the PICS ^^^
I hope its a permanent fix this time around with the new updated metal thrust washers.  Z

The car overall feels Great and hopefully will have some TRACK-TIME.  :drive:
