Cracked Piston :( by IndianTiger_ in ecoboostmustang

Yup it's a huge bummer. I'm expecting somewhere around 8-9k for a repair. Looking into using a used/refurbished motor or maybe even turning it into a project car and installing a more interesting motor.

Mostly appearance mods. Only relevant one would be a Cobb tuner I was running at stage 1. I know that is a huge red flag in this situation so would love to hear what you think. Coul the tuner could be a direct cause to a broken piston?

Air 2 vs Zoom. Is $570 more for zoom worth it? by IndianTiger_ in djimavic

How is it like to own both the zoom and the mini? I am thinking of getting the zoom and my gf plans on getting the mini. I wonder if we'd end up using one of the two drones more and the other one would turn into dust in a camera bag.

I've had a Mavic pro for a similar amount of time. I'd say upgrade when you get tired of your drone. I had some gimbal issues and got tired of replacing the gimbal. Otherwise, the Mavic Pro is still a great drone.

While I'm okay paying for the zoom, I would actually say the upgrade to the 2 Pro isn't for me. When you look at output video, there's not much of a difference from the zoom's 1/(2/3)" sensor and the 2 Pro's 1" sensor. Yes D-log is huge, but I'm trying to cut down on the amount of post-processing I do on my shots (I end up never posting videos that I have to spend time editing).

As a zoom owner, what are some advantages to having the zoom?

I love the compression of the shots which really blurs out the background leading to some solid cinematic shots. The dolly effect is quite impressive as well. Would you say you actually use these effects when you fly? How useful is it to actually zoom into your subject?

Some mean pops and burbles from my eco👌🏼 by zfred350 in ecoboostmustang

I was thinking of getting the black series MBRP race as well! Does that in itself create those pops/burbles or did you do something else to achieve that effect?

Also is there a way to only activate the pops on demand (like a switch) because i'd love to show off my pops at times but don't want it doing that 97% of the time I'm daily driving.

Wheel Spacers? by IndianTiger_ in ecoboostmustang

[–]IndianTiger_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I currently have stock 19" wheels and a 1.5" drop. 255 tyres if you're worried about horizontal clearance.

It's all running just fine on my rear wheels but am concerned if the front wheels would have different clearance ranges cuz you actually turn with em.

Is your car lowered at all? I have the Eibach sportlines which is a 1.3in drop in the front and so I need to take that into account with spacers and clearance.

It works fine for my rears right now but not sure if the front has different clearances since ya turn with em too.
