txgt replied to the thread S550 Heel-toe struggles.In general I’m a fan of MMR products. Their module is plug and play and is controlled via an app on your phone so that was the deciding factor. (see full post)- RedStallion27 replied to the thread S550 Heel-toe struggles.Thanks. Would you mind sharing why the Xing is more consistent? Does the Autoblip not hold its setting properly?

- RedStallion27 replied to the thread S550 Heel-toe struggles.Yes I tried that first. The gas pedal was in the way when trying to brake normally, but I suppose maybe I'd get used to the change. Thanks. (see full post)
- RedStallion27 replied to the thread S550 Heel-toe struggles.Thanks I will give this method a shot! It makes total sense. (see full post)
- RedStallion27 replied to the thread S550 Heel-toe struggles.Thanks. Yes fumbling it is so frustrating, especially on a great lap. Would you mind sharing why you chose MMR over Auto-Blip or Xineering? (see full post)
- RedStallion27 replied to the thread S550 Heel-toe struggles.Thanks. Definitely something to consider if I continue having trouble. Are double-downshifts tricky with a blip module? (see full post)
- Champale replied to the thread Boss Axle (No) Vent.If you ever plan on driving at high speeds (over 100mph), you will want a rear axle overflow catch can. JLT used to make a great one that a lot of us used 10+ years ago that was a simple catch can with a single bolt mounted bracket but I don't... (see full post)
- galaxy replied to the thread Boss Axle (No) Vent.Aaahhhhh. sh*t, I found it.So is that normal then for the thing to hold pressure? She’s been sitting for a few days also, thus it caught me by surprise to hear it vent when I pulled the plug. (see full post)
- Bouncing Soul replied to the thread S550 Does more power = more heat?.Closest thing to a cheat code in motorsports. My supercharger lid is noticeably cooler when I have my 500 on E- on top of the extra 120HP or so. (see full post)
- galaxy replied to the thread Boss Axle (No) Vent.It looks/feels factory. And it’s a brand new car, so I have no reason to suspect someone did this due to leaks. (see full post)

TMSBOSS replied to the thread S550 Heel-toe struggles.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)
byronj replied to the thread S550 Heel-toe struggles.Have you put a space under your gas pedal to bring the pedal closer to the brake? That was my fix. (see full post)-
txgt replied to the thread Rear diff whine after track sessions (Dark Horse) – normal?.I don’t have a diff cooler. I change mine with BG Ultra Guard 75W140 once a year and send it! (see full post)
302BOB replied to the thread Bob's Ton of Posts!.I want to wish a Happy Father's Day to all the Dads out there today!!!! If you're still young enough and lucky enough to have young ones running around your castle. cherish the time you have with them because before you even realize it they... (see full post)- stevbd replied to the thread S550 Heel-toe struggles.Years ago I was lucky enough to have an instructor who explained to me how hard it is to actually roll your ankle, or use your heel and your toe, or do anything with your heel off the floor. Don’t do any of those things.Make sure your heel... (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...

txgt replied to the thread S550 Heel-toe struggles.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)
- DaveW replied to the thread Brake Pedal Feel (upgrade).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)
