    Terminator owners in here!

    I'm sure a lot of you guys have dealt with/are dealing with the old hesitation issue. The PPRV mod of the stock fuel hat is something I've been meaning to do forever I just really would rather have it done by someone who has done this and knows what he is doing seeing as fuel delivery is kinda important. The sending unit is a bitch and dropping the fuel tank is something I'm not trying to do on my back.

    So I took my ride down to Mike at Wolfpack Speed for the PPRV mod along with a few other things. Check out these pics:

    1st one is the stock fuel hat
    2nd one is the PPRV mod Mike did

    Next up is to drive the car as is to see how it affected my slight hesitation at high RPM's then get Mike to data log my car and have Jon Lund tune it.

    This is a highly worthwhile mod IMHO and I couldn't be happier with Mike's attention to detail and work.

    Yep we have a system down now.

    We have done about 5-6 of these so far.

    It will eliminate the hesitation between shifts for sure.

    Not sure if your high rpms hesitation is the same thing though?

    Mike worked on my car a few months back. He did a great job on and it treated it like it was his own car. He did the pprv delete and my car shifts smooth as hell with that and the a tune from Jon Lund. Couldn't be happier with it now. Hope it works out good for you too.

    Shifting at high rpm/ wot it falls on it's face for a second and then picks up again. Sometimes also when your at part throttle and go WOT it will do the same thing. PRVV is a checkvalve in the fuel system that has proven to help cause this condition in modified Cobra's.

    Nate you don't need a new tune and it may fix your hesitation but if the tune is a good bit off then it may need tweaked as well. Either way man this is a mod that is definitely worth it.

    Big Lou--I don't know what you are talking about my tires are just getting broke in got a lot more miles to go on those bad boys

    Nate,

    i can't remember who you had tune your car but if it's a solid file by an experienced tuner you should be fine. as mentioned, there have been some cases were the pprv didn't fix all but from that point it is correctable by a knowledgeable tuner.

    yes, thats his car! he hurt #7, i did some testing but didn't take the head off, im pretty sure he bent a valve!
