  1. BOSS DYNOED with Black Key and Red Key, Red Key SPARK-KNOCKING BAD

    spark knock sucks, period.. I hate it >:( seriously I would get the octane adjust setting done if you plan on using the trackey, when I get my car out of storage in May I`m gonna get it done. I called Ford racing last year about the issue and they recommended to do it.Spark knock is not...
  2. BOSS DYNOED with Black Key and Red Key, Red Key SPARK-KNOCKING BAD

    V2.2 difference is just for 13 models different display than 12 , trackey key functions and tune is no different between V2 and V2.2Go book an appointment and pay the hour outta of your own pocket and get them to change the octane adjust setting.Get back to us with your fix :)

  4. BOSS DYNOED with Black Key and Red Key, Red Key SPARK-KNOCKING BAD

    why didn`t you get them to reflash your trackey and activate the octane adjust setting?If you are having a spark knock issues thats what the techs will activate in the trackey tune.Ford racing will tell you the same thing, if your not happy with the knocking, go back and get octane adjust...
  5. Your Oil selection?...

    Mobil 1 straight from Ford in Canada, even the SVT dealers use Mobil 1 as they have been getting the mobil 1 instead of motorcraft directly from ford when they order 5w50
  6. DIY Dip Kits

    I plasti dipped my wifes cooper s rims and front grill. It looks like sh*t when you first start spraying the first coat or so and you will be thinking wtf did I just do. The first coat goes on light and looks awful but after couple more coats it looks great. Be sure to let it dry 20 min or so...
  7. knock under light accelleration

    I called ford racing again today and enquired about the octane adjust setting in the trackey and that I wasn`t comfortable with any pinging. I was told the ping was designed into the trackey tune and it`s nothing to worry about? ??? Guess it depends who you talk to??still thinking about the...
  8. Canadian oil change......yikes!

    I got my oil from Ford Canada Mobil 1 5W50 which they said is straight from Ford Canada instead of motorcraft. I got a good deal on case of 12 because another dealer bought a few cases for a GT500 and the owner never came back and they are stuck with the oil :D I then picked up a ford racing...
  9. knock under light accelleration

    If you have the exhaust discs removed, you prob wouldn`t hear it if it was pinging. With the stock discs it was plain as day, with my 3/4" you can barely hear it but it`s there if you listen. I called ford racing also and they agreed that octane adjust is what needs to be on from the trackey...
  10. Boss owners package is coming to Canada :) Great News

    Mobil 5W50 right from the Ford Canada, I called a bunch of dealers including SVT dealers and was told Ford Canada was sending them Mobil 1 in 5W50 instead of Motorcraft.
  12. Honestly-is the Boss too much car to enjoy on the street?

    I use to drive my sport bikes too aggresive on the streets, I felt a need to drive fast all the time.. Then I bought a race bike and tracked it. The need to go fast on the streets all the time stopped after going on the track. I never tracked a car yet, but I can guess afterwards be same as my...
  13. Got my Track Key installed and now detonation?

    I hope to get issue resolved this spring with the octane adjust in the trackey tune and go from there... I love the sound of the car with the trackey and thats what I miss the most having to use the black key 98% of time. :(For the record, the stations here do not have any blended eth and...
