    Hissing under throttle

    I don't have a CAI (yet ;) ) and under any sort of throttle more than none I hear a hissing coming from the front of the car. Any idea what this could be? Everything is completely stock right now as far as mechanicals.

    SLP install

    I just ordered the SLP Loudmouth cat-back :D anyone in the midland/odessa area want to loan me some jackstands and a floorjack? I know I can install it, but all I've got are rhino ramps :( Is it possible to get the stock cat-back off without cutting it? If I do have to cut it, can it be...

    Custom fiberglass enclosures

    I'm thinking about molding some fiberglass enclosures for the wheel wells in my '04 with the Mach1000 system. Right now I'm undecided whether to make them for the stock 10s with a little extra volume to upgrade later, or to make them specifically for 12s that I have yet to pick out. The amps...

    public apology to Chips...

    well my friend had told me and told me I should wait for the '05 but I was too impatient and bought my '04. Here is my public apology and admission that he was right. I love the new Mustang, I still love my '04 but the '05 is just an all around better car. Once I drive a manual GT, I may just...

    Full SLP exhaust

    From the long tube headers to the SLP X-pipe with cats or race pipes to the loud mouth exhaust. Anyone have a sound clip? All mustangexhaust has is on the stock headers and midpipe. I'm thinking about this setup over the SLP headers, x-pipe and borla stinger. It would be nice to have SLP...

    Laptop programmable chip?

    What kind of software is out there that you can tune your car with a laptop? Is it even possible without a dyno anyway? I'm thinking if I got a wideband O2, and it logged the parameters when I took it down the track it could be tweaked afterwards. Am I crazy or is this possible, or better...

    What will break first?

    Keeping everything in the driveline aside from the engine stock, what will break first? Drag radials, full slicks, street tires, what is the weak link in the driveline?

    '04 Cobra IRS in a GT

    A guy on another forum has an '04 Mystic Cobra (:drool: I know) and wants a live axle. My car will be nearly 100% street car and anyway I'm more concerned with handling than with pure straight line performance. What are the pros and cons of this? How will exhaust work? Will I need a cobra...

    Borla Stinger

    The short and sweet of it is payday is friday and I'm buying the Borla Stinger cat-back. The long story is I'd like to find it cheaper than what I've seen so far. Cheapest I've found is from LMPerformance for right at $510 shipped, if I can find it cheaper from a reputable dealer I'll buy it...

    Used Tri-ax

    Anything wrong with getting a used shifter? It's coming off a 2003 turbo Mach1, it's seen some drag strip action but there's really nothing to worry about with a used shifter right?

    Mach 1000 system

    Has anyone upgraded their Mach 1000 system? I'd like to keep the layout of the amp rack and the subs but swap 10" Alpine subs and maybe a custom MDF box to tuck the subs a little further next to the wheel wells. Anyone have pictures of something like this?

    '04 exhaust louder?

    My '04 sounds louder with the stock exhaust than other GTs I hear. Did ford change anything at all around '03-'04?

    Welding axle tubes/torque boxes

    What is the downside to this? It seems like a simple mod everyone should do and probably should have been done right at the factory. I'm thinking about getting it done when I get the subframes welded in if there are no negative effects. I'm assuming most service departments aren't going to go...

    Subframes or Shifter?

    Next friday I get my first paycheck for full time, so after I put away enough for this months car payment I've got enough to blow to get the car tinted amd buy either the Steeda full length subframes or a Steeda Tri-ax. I'm kind of leaning towards the Subframes just to get them on and keep the...

    How to keep her clean?

    I should be taking delivery of an '04 Sonic Blue GT tommorow afternoon, after the hell I've been through already, who knows though. So if all goes well, what are some tips to keep my baby clean? She may be garaged but I'm not sure yet.

    How to keep her clean?

    If you've been following my influx of posts the past week or so you'll know that I was buying a 2004 Competition Orange GT. Well long story short I'll be taking delivery of a Sonic Blue 5-speed GT coupe in the next day or two. :rolleyes: I love the color but around here, dirt shows up on it...

    High Altitude Emissions?

    What's the difference between standard and high altitude? The car I'm trying to get has the high altitude emissions. Around here the DA is 4000ft+ nearly all the time, will the car run rich or throw codes? I've got a kick-ass deal on this car, they're giving me $1300 at the place the dealer...

    I've seen several parts that say they are for up to '03, will all of these work with an '04?
