I just hope when I call Roush Monday they don't try to give me the run around. Did you get a name from a representative at roush that told you there is a update for the tune with automatic

The VMP triple pass will solve your heat soak issues. It's hot as Africa down here and the 130's were max temps sitting still after the install. It will run the water pump and fans while the car is off if you touch the brake (around 2 minutes).

Hey on the vmp triple pass they told me water inlet is on the drivers side so did you relocate the pump to drivers side or just use the longer hose to reach from pump passenger side ?

Yeah call Roush about the tune. I can't remember the guy I spoke to but he called me back and I think he's assigned to my account. I'll get that if you need it. Great that your Stang performs when it's cool. I tried that after reading your post. Fresh out of the garage and 2 minutes to exit the the neighborhood. Hammered it and was better but still had some bogging. Hopefully the tune will resolve it.

Let me know how easy the VMP kit is to install and how effective it is. Anything may be better than the Roush set up lol. I like the liquid/meth idea and the process for how it works. Does not seem to have any proven side affects and may even have additional benefits like cleaning the top of the pistons. Using that with and upgraded HE sound make a big difference. I will contact Roush at some point just to make sure it doesn't void warranty. More cooling is always better.

Sometimes the posts come in when I'm typing. I'm kind of slow lol. Jc5057 I will get the reps name for you on Monday. Following you and Dragonetti on the triple bypass install. I'm interested in one.

Yeah thanks for the info and appreciate that you are going to get me the reps name. As for the triple pass heat exchanger I like that is has fans the roush heat exchanger seems very whimpy and is only good for cooling on freeway . As for the roush updated tune only things that sucks for me is I will have to mail them my whole pcm again . Question when did they 1st calibrate your pcm? Mine was done august 1st of this year

No problem. His name is Gavin and we just got off the phone. He said the tune for manual and automatic will be out on 9/30. Going to look into that heat exchanger...I agree that the Roush one could be much better. My PCM was calibrated at the beginning of last month.

Yep I just got off the phone with Chris from Roush and was told the same thing they will call me around the 30 the for new calibration . I am am just thankful Roush is going to handle it with no drama. The vmp heat exchanger the triple pass with dual 11 inch fans is on its way.if you want to save like 40 bucks on the heat exchanger go to vmp racing website add it to cart and enter coupon code. Vmprocks1. That should get you there discount brother. Yeah fans should make a world of diffrence

Cool! Thanks for the tip bro. Could always save a few bucks. Yeah Roush and my installer have been very accommodating so far. I just hope the update cures our problem.

Yeah I can't wait to send the Pcm back and bolt it back in the car and turn key and hope the bog is gone .Chris told me it's the torque management in the Pcm kicking in when it should not. Sounds like roush got a grip on it we will see if am praying lol
