    Check out my back seat!!!

    Ya, this stuff just doesn't add up. 630RWHP and only 125mph in the traps? OK, I could see if you had no traction, but you had a 1.4 60ft time, so you had traction. I assume you are pulling the front tires off the ground then. With the power you state you have you should be pushing 130+ mph in...

    Ate a Boxter S for lunch

    Sweet. They're are so many versions of the Boxter's now I can't keep track. I don't run into many Porsche's around where I live, but I have seen 4 Ferrari's and 1 new Lambo believe it or not. Not one of them even wanted to look at me. They were all probably thinking (speaking with an...

    Check out my back seat!!!

    Um, ok. I hate doing this, but I gotta call BS on this one. Why does your graph stop at 6300RPM? Your car should be able to spin to 7000-7500 RPM's. Did you run out of fuel or something? Also, that is unlike ANY KB dyno graph I've ever seen. KB's are known for bringing on the power...

    Gears for 01 cobra maybe????

    Yes, the rear axle is what houses the "gear". Stock is a 3.27 gear. The gear acts as a torque multiplier to spin the rear wheels. Since you have a 3.27 gear now, the driveshaft has to turn 3.27 times to spin the wheels once. Most people upgrade to a 4.10 or 4.30 gear to accelerate faster...

    Check out my back seat!!!

    Numbers seem high for only 9lbs of KB boost....even with all the supporting mods. I've been reading where most 99-01 Cobra guys are not happy with their KB's because they are only getting low 400 to the wheels. Granted that is just with exhaust mods and the KB. I'm pushing 14 lbs of boost...

    Anyone ever painted their mustang 04 Mystichrome paint??

    Never done it, but I heard that DuPont's patent expired so you can now get that paint for about 40% of the oringal price. I was thinking of doing something like flames in mystichrome on my black 99. That's for another year......

    Clunky Clunk Sounds from front suspension.

    Either the brake pads are rattling around or the nut on top of the strut has come loose and the MM aluminum spacers in the CC plates are clanking together when you go over a rough surface.

    Check out my back seat!!!

    So, 9:1 compression, cams, a KB....and now nitrous. That 600+RWHP number is whith the nitrous right? What kind of boost are you running? Intercooled? What size Nitrous shot? What is your fuel system, injectors, MAF? What octance gas are you running? What's your timing set at? Fill in...

    I should know this but...

    Why do you want a different mass air meter? MAF's measure air volume coming into the motor so the computer can adjust the fuel tables correctly. Putting that MAF on your car will do nothing power wise. I would leave the stock one in there. Unless you are putting on a cold air kit or doing...

    Running problem

    Sounds like you just added the plugs and then the problems started. Sounds like spark blow-out to me. What heat range and what gap are you running the new plugs at??

    Race with LS1 Trans Am. Not Pretty...

    Raced an 02 Camaro turbo charged LS1 a few weeks back. From 35mph to about 115mph, got him by a 1/2 a car then we shut it down. I didn't pull away until about 105mph though. Otherwise we were dead even. He was only pushing 7lbs of boost. LS1's are no joke.

    In need of some tires

    275-35-18 would be my guess. Where can you buy that size tire....anywhere.

    Investigation into sudden acceleration of 2003 Mustangs. (Carpet Problem)

    I installed aftermarket aluminum race pedals awhile back.....happened to me. the edge of the gas pedal was hitting the carpet and caused a small rip. One day it got caught and the car was WOT in 2nd gear. Bounced the limiter twice and turned the car off, coasting into a parking lot. Thank...

    99 cobra s/c help..

    Go with a KB....good blower for the street. Instant max boost. Good downlow power. Pricey kit though.

    99 cobra s/c help..

    Either will work. Each offers a different power curve. Depends on what you want out of the car.

    Problems with IRS

    Ford Racing also sells the same thing for about 1/2 the price. You will also want Steeda's polyurethane bushings. I did all this when I had the IRS still. In the end it might have helped "reduce" it, but nothing ever took it away. If you plan to keep the IRS, then get this brace, the...

    Supercharger Question

    What he said above...boost is determined by RPM, not load or what gear you are in. These engines will last a long time if left alone. You can always slap a blower on there, keep it under 10 lbs of boost, tune it safe and enjoy 420RWHP for a long time with a good tune.
