    Super Charger or Turbo

    A properly configured turbo setup on a car that comes stock with 240 BHTQ should NOT have any turbo lag at all. If there is turbo lag, a few things would need to be addressed. The size of the turbo; specifically the hot side and/or the headers, primary size and exhaust gas velocity...

    Which exhaust would u buy?

    Yep, I agree. I'm doing headers back. Custom stainless to 3" single pipe, single cat, single 3" strait through muffler tucked under the car before the Y pipe (still have to get under the car to work out the details) and strait pipes out the back. I'm a fan of the fox and the dual strait pipe...

    Which exhaust would u buy?

    Thanks Hamidlmt Best sound clip for the V6 I've heard so far is the Y pipe JBA. It sounds more GTish than the Magnaflow clips I've heard and may just change my mind on what mufflers to use.

    Any dealers doing X-Plan yet?

    Yep, the only thing I did not try was the Vert. Very odd that they would do that. Jaki is proof the decision to restrict the manual in the vert-pony package combo is costing them sales. I'd love to see the been counter reson behind that decision. :notnice:

    Any dealers doing X-Plan yet?

    Thanks for the compliment. Not to highjack the thread, but I love the car. My 02 has a bit more torque, but it's a completely different driving experience when you factor in the chassis and traction control of the 06. This is an all weather capable car and though my 02, witch is lowered...

    Image update Here is a pic of the interior and one of the window sticker and one of the car. Look at the top right corner for the drive train info.

    Any dealers doing X-Plan yet?

    Absolutely not true I ordered my car sep 25th and it is a Manual Tranny Pony Package. Who said you could not get a Manual Transmission? I misplaced my dora, but I'll post a pic of the interior tomorrow. Keep an eye out for a new thread - Tungsten Grey Pony -. We've had rain for what seems...

    Which exhaust would u buy?

    Find a place local or on line to get the Magnaflow muflers (and cats it you're after total performance - you will loose a bit of torque without a tune) and then find a local exhaust shop that fabs up systems using manderal bent pipes. Out the door should be $600 or less with mufflers and...

    are the sticks missing?

    I have a 2006 5 Speed w/ pony package. I ordered it on the 25th of September, order was confirmed on the 27th or so, had the DORA emailed to me and it was scheduled to be built on the 3rd. The tranny seems to be in the car, right where it should be... my delivery was supposed to be W/O 21st, but...

    Can I delete the spoiler on a V-6 from the factory?

    Thanks E, - I'll have a better pic up now that the sun is out again - felt like 40 days and 40 nights. I was actually going to get white. I'm in the midst of restoring an 84 SVO that is going to be Gunmetal and am a fan of odd colors - hence the sonic 02. I love the Tungsten and would make that...

    dome light

    I noticed them on mine too, but did not really look into it. I thought they were mini lights that came on upon door opening but lost the thought by the time I exited the car. I'll look through the manual eventually to see what they are about. ...personally, that flat part on the dome light is...

    Can I delete the spoiler on a V-6 from the factory?

    For the premium, you will get a spoiler delete option. If you order the Pony Package, the option to delete will NOT be available even though it is checkable in the build and price on the web.

    Does this annoy anyone else?

    SN95 Mustang owners had the exact same complaint going the oposite way - when you have a radar detector plugged in the cord runs right down the center of the consol. So Ford did "fix" it. Maybe next year they'll add one to the lower consol to please everyone once and for all... and maybe a...

    2008 Bullit..?

    Well, if this is true, Ford would be utterly foolish not to do an S197 Bullitt Latest Updates on: Bullitt Bullitt Updated: Friday 11th June 2004: Bullitt Update: Director Wolfgang Petersen is to remake Steve McQueen's Bullitt for Warner Bros. The 1968 original was based on the Robert...

    Why my car is better than yours.

    Jenn, I was referring to personal choice, not intending to stereotype you - sorry. It's just that we all like to think what we have is the best; and it is really, for our own given situation. If you look at my sig, you can see I'm diverse to some degree. I'm in to a lot more than just Ford...

    Why my car is better than yours.

    Not to make this a "what car would you get if..." thread, but it's kinda going that way. For me, it's be a Noble M12. Noble Cars UK uses a 3.0-liter 352 hp version for the Noble M12 GTO-3R in the UK. This is the same Ford Duratec aluminum block V6 engine currently used in the Mazda...

    finally tried the track

    I'm still humming and hawing over getting a new stang right now vs. waiting a bit. My car is almost paid for and going a year or so without having to make a payment at all is very tempting. Threads like this don't make the wait very easy. The trend of the V6 keeping up to or out running the...

    Did ford ever make a EFI I6 motor?

    Poolie SVO Better late than never. Had to go through the 2 year old trash for this. Don't get the color choice, but with 435 or so RWHP - so what. No engine pics, but I'll try to email the owner and get some, and some shots of the badging. The Mexican SVO posted by 140 is a standard...

    Did ford ever make a EFI I6 motor?

    Just some obscure history on the Mustang SVO and the 3.3 I6. There was a company out there who converted a few of them (only one that I know of for sure) to what they called a Poolie SVO. The car I saw pics of was blue and yellow. Yes, odd color combo, but the Turbocharged 435HP EFI I6 made up...
