Dropped the car off for Mad Mike to do the 30k miles service. Pass an silver evo just before the 19/McKnight split this morning. Wasn't sure if it was an 8 or 9. Just saw it at the last minute.
Ya, it's 227 sandy creek rd. Verona, pa 15147

Just curious, did they get that dyno recalibrated yet?

At that price I am thinking about getting mine on there for a baseline pull, just to see my gains and just for ****s. But if its a silly # that I won't be able to compare to a future #, then I'm not interested.

Lol, like the first week the dyno was installed brand new out the box it read crazy low. A mustang tech actually came to the shop and recalibrated it. It reads almost dead nuts to buschurs mustang. My car only made 10hp more on j&s mustang than BR

Any recommendations for tcase gear lube and tranny fluid? All my fluids are drained and I'm wondering what combination of fluids to use for when I get the tcase back from shep.

I have a qt of redline heavy shockproof and 2 qt's of mt90 in mine. It's the only mix I have ever been 100% content with.

Some mixes were good when cold, some good when hot. That one is good all the time.

I have OEM in the transfer case.

I was thinking redline mt90 in the trans and redline heavy shockproof in the tcase and rear diff. Does that sound reasonable?

Got the car back from Mad Mike after doing the 30k service. He's hooking me up with a brand new antenna under warranty. I tell you what. If Mike ever leaves Bariel, I may have to sell the Evo. haha

You guys want to setup a time to meet at J&S?

Not bad mileage or price. However with the front bumper being changed, it's possible it's been modded a bit. If modded right, I wouldn't consider that a bad thing. However I'd prefer to be the one that modded it.

I ran MT-90 in mine for a while, and I tried a few blends. 2qt MT-90 + 1 qt Heavy Shockproof seemed to get more crisp shifts

I ran Redline 75W90 in the TC and Rearend and just switched to DiaQueen. Didn't notice a difference there.

Dunno about putting Heavy in the TC and Rear tho?
