    Stock rear springs good for drag?

    Hey, I've been told that the stock springs on a fox do basically the same as rear aftermarket drag springs. Is there any truth to this? I have the Eibach fronts from the drag kit available to me for a decent price, so I'd be curious to know whether this setup would work or not before I spend...

    Edelbrocker Performer H/I, Steeda cam?

    Cool, thanks for the info

    Mufflers, yes, this question has been asked forever....

    If that were true then everyone would be running with 2" headers and a 3-4" exhaust system. Having too much free flow is not ideal for naturally-aspirated applications

    alright....To hell with flowmaster 2 chambers!

    My friend has Borla mufflers and tips, and if you don't like the tips (though I do) they're expensive and that'll save you a good bit of money. Sorry I don't have a part number or anything... I can't remember his exact setup. I think Hooker longtubes, gutted cats and the Borla mufflers and...

    X-Pipe fitment for unknown longtubes

    Hey guys, got a quick question if anyone can help out here. I purchased the car I have now with longtubes and want to get a performance catted x-pipe. The problem is when I'm shopping around for mid-pipes they always have them specifically for the brand of header, x-pipe for mac longtubes...

    Finally ran the new 347 combo at the track

    Are you sure 4:30's with a 26" tall tire is a good idea? I would, first of all, use a 28" tire instead, and then also 4:10's max. I think that's way too much gear, not only for a street car, but I think you'll easily be at the rev limiter with that combo... no point in maxing out your top...

    dyno numbers i can't believe, check this out!

    That'd be around 195 on a Dynojet, too! A Mustang dyno would be even worse. Unless you're running a supercharger under there and don't know it... =\

    Can you see over your 4" Cowl ?

    I had a 6" cowl hood on my car (done by previous owner) and you really don't lose any visibility EXCEPT I could not see the passenger front corner of the car... gotta be a bit careful you don't clip anything there, but other than that it seemed good.

    Why is running open headers bad...

    I've also heard that running simply open headers can possibly cause a fire or something.. any truth to this? I mean open headers as in no dumps, since it's scavenging all the exhaust gases to the undercarriage of your car, where all the fuel and brake lines run and such. More of a myth I...

    So... where's the 351 sticky?

    You could split it up between a post and a reply, and then everyone could bask in its glory once again... also thanks for the info, vristang! That's a good part of what I was looking for. Anyone know how 351's are for road racing applications? I definately like the appeal of a naturally...

    So... where's the 351 sticky?

    Well it's true, too... lol. I need to know everything that was in that guide. My motor's just about gone and I was going to replace it with a stock motor, but if I go through all that trouble I wouldn't mind putting a 351W in there. I only remember a little bit from the first time I read...

    So... where's the 351 sticky?

    I remember starting to read through it.. and then it disappeared. Searching yielded no results. I could certainly use it :)

    Hmm.. 5.0 to 2.3 turbo?

    Is that pretty spot on with the weight difference? I thought it would've been more. I've heard the 351 is roughly 80 lbs more than a 5L, I figured the 2.3 would be a good bit lighter.

    Hmm.. 5.0 to 2.3 turbo?

    Hey guys, this is my first time venturing into this forum and I've been reading a bit around here. This has probably been brought up before.. I doubt the swap is difficult, but I'm curious if it's recommended. The motor in my '91 isn't doing so hot, and I was going to replace it with another...

    Safe shot for 5.0

    Why only a 100 shot? What's going to blow if you run a bigger shot? A stock motor will only be pushing out over 300 hp at that rate, nowhere near the tolerance limits of the motor

    Ok listen to my set up see if you can help me

    Well I'll say it'd run faster than the sled you're driving now :)

    There are a lot of important mods that you won't notice on a dyno...

    Flip or Remove quad shocks?

    What's the purpose of flipping them... so the body of the shock is farther away from the tire and prevents rubbing? Any negative side-effects in doing this?

    Sheila Vs. turbo RSX (boo)
