    Need some opinions for next mod

    Hey guys (and gals). Well, I wanted to see about getting some opinions as to what my next performance modification should be. I'm thinking about throwing in another $100 - $200 dollars and I was wondering, with my current setup, what would be the most bang for the buck. I was thinking about...

    Haunted Headlights

    Tonight, as I was parking my Stang in the driveway, I became convinced that it is haunted...lol. With the car idling in park and the headlights on, the headlights and fog lights began to flicker on and off in about 4 second increments. When I say flicker, I mean they went completely out and...

    My Problem With V8s

    Ok, alot of people have asked me, "Why do you hate on the V8s? We respect you 6ers." Well, I had the perfect example happen to me today. I was driving down the road minding my own business when a black 03 Cobra coupe turns off of a side road and gets behind me. I'm not paying him any mind, I...

    Bad Vibrations

    Okay, here's the deal. The other night when I was driving home, I was cruising at about 70-75 when this stupid Volkswagen Beetle driver decided to change lanes on top of me. :mad: I nailed the brakes pretty hard and managed to miss HER (no offense ladies, but it's true what they say about...

    Pics not posting

    Well, I tried to throw a few pics of Vanessa (my Stang :D ) on here, but I took them with a digital camera and apparently the shots are too big to attach. Is there any way around that other than using a scanner that I don't have? Man, I feel like a new B all over again with this one...

    CD player broken, Ford blames Flowmaster

    Ok, so here's the deal. When I first get in my car, my CD player works fine. As the CD player heats up, it starts to freeze up and eject my discs. After the radio has been on for about 5 minutes, it spits out any disc I put in it. Before it does, however, I can hear the unit making a...

    My TB Spacer Nightmare

    Well guys, have I got a story for you. I went to get my Motorvator installed at a shop up here by my house. The guy said he'd charge me the standard shop fee of $60 and that it would take about an hour to do. So I said sure, go ahead and they went to work on it. Well, about forty five...

    01 Cobra Amber Lights

    00 Cobra Amber Lights Actually, I've two questions. 1. Does anyone know where I could find a pair of 2000 Cobra style tail lights with the amber turn signal? I think they look pretty slick. Also, does anyone know what would be involved in switching my tail lights over? Is it possible? And...

    Will a Motorvator work with my CAI?

    Hey all. Well, I was shopping around for a cheap performance part and I came across the Motorvator throttle body spacer. From what I can see, it's about one inch wide and they claim something like 10 HP gain to the wheels from it. Thing is, I went under my hood today to see how it would fit...

    Silver on Black

    I recently purchased a decal kit from Steeda for my black 03. I'm thinking that they'll look pretty slick and I'll be able to avoid over-decaling the car as a whole because I really hate seeing Stangs, or any car really, with tons of decals on them. I have one question though. I'm thinking...

    '03 drop question

    Ok, I'm thinking about dropping my ride about 1-1 and half inches all around. I was thinking of using the Eibach spring kit to get the job done, but I have 4 really stupid questions. 1. What is the difference between a progressive and a specific drop? I've only found the progressive drop to...

    Chassis difference from 02-03?!?

    I ran into a problem that I really wasn't expecting while trying to install my latest modification. The shop that does all the work on my car told me that the BBK strut tower brace for the 99-02 models won't work on the 03. I wasn't aware of any changes being made, but they told me that the...

    How do I get GT performance from a 6?

    I'm sure that's the question that has come over a lot of people in this forum. My real question is, besides the modifications that I currently have, what can I do to my car to get a little (or a lotta) extra power for not so much money? I was thinking of putting on a 70mm throttle body, but I...

    Trouble locating my E.C.U.

    :shrug: I recently purchased a Jet performance chip for my '03 3.8L. Only problem is, I can't seem to find the actual E.C.U. The instructions with the chip claim that it is hidden away behind the passenger side kick panel, but I had no luck finding it after I popped off the panel. Does anyone...
