is it only my car or does anybody else's car with a ve spin the tires when the cams switch? Mines does it while it running in 1st gear i floor it then at 4800 when the vvl kicks in my tires loose traction n spin.when i got the car it had some cheap ass tires on it but i then got some michelin pilots on some lightweight wheels ..with better results. But it's winter and i put my stock rims back on *** new yokohama avids with the same wheelspin. anybody else experience this??
i've done it in second too!! and i have the stock flywheel.
all i can do in 3rd is chirp the tires.
Wow, I tend to baby third. Even though I'm not making enough power to shatter it, it still lingers in my mind. Sometimes I even skip third and go straight to fourth during regular driving
cold air intake, headers, 2.5 in exhaust(with cat), jwt ecu, j30 maf, msd ignition and switch, ngk iridium plugs n wires,act hd clutch *** s/sdisc, all around es bushings,
and a 2" drop.
ur probably right,
the b14 tranny is better or hmmm what about that primera 6 speed i told my mechanic about the 6 speed and he said u need to modify some mounts i think.

It's quite a bit of work, if you have the money than go for it. If you are talking about the specv gearstack, I have heard alot of bad things about the specv's trannys. I don't know if the newer ones are fixed or not.
na forget the spec v.
it all depends on price and reliability.
in other words something without gears popping out that can handle my future mods...hmmm like a VE-T in which i might have in the works soon.
i have a h/s cai, h/s gen 6 header, 8.5lb. fidanza flywheel, exedy stage one clutch that is now blown, jwt ve ecu. thats it. i have stock exhaust as well. the previous owner said it dyno'ed 194 at the wheels so its a strong motor

the michelins are alright ...its the other tires on the stock wheels that spin. The reason i need stock rims and all season tires is that i live in the northeast and i drive my car year round.
ugh, it's my pet peave. I disregard any dyno data that isn't printed and from a mustang dyno.
anyway wheelspin in 1st is typical. i'd be worried if it didn't. the fact that it happens right when the vvl kicks in suggests that you're not tuned right, and actually making less power than you should. a properly tuned engine will be smooth(er), with no dramatic increase in torque when the cams kick. It means you're making less power than you should before they kick.
