  • Well, I found this interesting. My new ‘12 Boss does not have an axle vent. At all. The hole is plugged. That’s not normal, right??? The hole is there, but there’s a bolt/plug in it.I noticed this because when I went to pull the fill plug and...

    What Steve said. I have used both the Autoblip and the Xingeneering units. The Autoblip is easier to adjust with knobs for adjustments while the Xing is more consistent while requiring g a laptop to make adjustments. . (see full post)

  • stevbd replied to the thread Brake Pedal Feel (upgrade).
    I don’t have experience with all the setups mentioned. But there are a lot of reports out there of the s550 6 piston calipers leading to a softer and longer pedal on an S197.Sort of stating the obvious, there is a world of difference in brake... (see full post)

    I use the ankle roll method but it’s very inconsistent with the results. Usually takes a few laps to get it dialed in. It’s a great feeling when everything clicks, but definitely frustrating when you fumble it. Keep at it if you want to perfect... (see full post)

    No help but I also hate the pedal on mine. I have the Wilwood 6 piston kit and that helped a little...I have debated messing with different calipers to improve it but have never spent the $$$$$. There also has to be a way to adapt other MC.I... (see full post)

    Get a Xingeneering module. Plug and play and can adjust timing and blip settings with laptop. Wire in a power switch to be able to shut off for street use. Heel/toe is a great skill. But is archaic in today's environment and definitely affects... (see full post)

    Have you switched the rubber brake lines to OEM Boss 302 brake lines? They're made of a type of long-lasting rubber tubing that's as stiff as stainless lines. Made a huge difference in feel on my 2011 GT Track Pack. (see full post)
