    wheel opinions...

    Anyone have any opinions on wheels for the 08? A guy i work with wants to buy my stocker rims w/ tires for 600. Too good of a deal to pass up and not get new wheels. I wouldnt mind goin against the grain and gettin a non ford type wheel but all the ones i look at are not wide enough. Anyone...

    Question on the 1/4 window louvers....

    Age check.

    If you drive a '197 what's your age? i live in a very small area and ive noticed more older guys drivin these things, and from a lot of the posts on other forums it seems to be a trend nationwide... :shrug: I'm 24 btw..

    Probably a stupid question, but after my Xpipe install...

    After my xpipe install should i get my car retuned? My friend who helped me put it on when we were letting it idle put his hand down to feel the air comin out of the tailpipe and it was really hot. And it is kinda hot to the touch as it comes out, but i dont know how it felt before. Think...

    Found this on another board: GT500 crash...

    Unsure of cause, but appears to be related to either a head gasket letting go or a coolant hose letting go, and causing fluid under the tires and loss of control. Thoughts?

    Got the C&L and bama tunes installed on the GT...

    Got it installed in around an hour. Took my time of course. Looking back on it, i wish i would have preassembled the thing in my basement and then put it on because the instructions made it a PITA. Only thing i dont like about it is the airbox, it doesnt seem to fit that well. IF anyone...

    Smoke from exhaust on deacceleration/accel?

    Whats this mean? I can't really tell if its on accel or deaccel. Maybe i am worried about nothing but when i did my cam swap none of my plugs were coated in oil, they were all a nice brown. My coolant is not brown nor does it have oil deposits in it. Is it just because its a modded motor or...
