    Bad cold idle?

    Not terribly but it has backfired a couple times - how would I go about resetting the computer? Not sure if this was done on the install or not but it can't hurt to try...

    Bad cold idle?

    Just had the car switched from speed density to mass air and am happy overall with the improvement but the idle is still kinda rough when the car is cold. Not to the point where it's undriveable but it stumbles first thing in the morning consistently when I leave for work. Engine mods are CAI...

    MAF - what a difference!

    Had the car swapped over to mass air from speed density this morning and what a difference! E-cam, cobra intake, exhaust, and otherwise stock did not make the previous speed density too happy - ran super rich at lower rpm. Car now idles beatifully and sounds 100% healthier - no more surging...

    Help! Correct MAF ECU???

    ...spent some time researching and answered part of my own question: http://fordfuelinjection.com/?p=17 computer is from a MAF auto car - will it work out ok in my manual trans ride? directions from PMAS say "damage to computer may result" but i've never heard that this mattered much...

    Help! Correct MAF ECU???

    Swapping from speed density to mass air - just got my conversion harness in from PMAS and their instructions list the "appropriate" computers as A9L, A3M, or A3M1 for a manual trans car. I have an A9M which is not listed under appropriate computers for auto or manual but I was previously told...

    Patriot Performance SBF Heads

    ...interested to see as well. Isn't $800 getting pretty close to TFS pricing though?

    Bigger injectors?

    Need some advice on an upcoming speed density to MAF swap I'm about to do on my '88 GT. All the parts for the swap came with the car when I bought it - only issue is that the 75mm meter included is calibrated for 30# injectors. Will I be ok running 30#ers on a mostly stock setup (cobra intake...

    New 'stang pics/need wheel well clearance!

    Baby on the way and had to cut back a bit. Bought the wifey a new 4WD Commander so I'm back in a cheaper ride. Besides...just something about the exhaust note and overall feel of a fox body. PS - Any more tips on rolling that lip back? I HAVE to get this done tomorrow before I run through...

    New 'stang pics/need wheel well clearance!

    Looks more or less perfect for the job but spending $250 on a tool I'll most likely use once kinda sucks. What kind of shop do you work in that carries one? Body or speed/performance shop? Gonna have to start calling around...

    New 'stang pics/need wheel well clearance!

    Thanks guys - it's definitely growing on me. What's my best bet on rolling the lip completely flat? Would tapping it upward with a body hammer work out or do I risk damaging the outward appearance of the flare? I'd assume there's a better way?

    New 'stang pics/need wheel well clearance!

    Haha...red was not my first choice but it's so clean it was hard to pass up. That and it works out ok with the mineral grey i think. I paid a bit more than I wanted to for my next fox but this one's clean - all original panels that have never been off the car and original window...

    New 'stang pics/need wheel well clearance!

    Just picked up this '88 GT here locally and am overall happy to be back in a fox body after a few years (couple terminators, a lightning, and a :cough:Z06:cough:). Mostly stock drivetrain short of the usual e-cam, exhaust, gear, intake bolt ons. Would like to keep her as a solid...

    Good stang shops in south FL?

    Sounds good...I (as evident by the username) ordered quite a bit of my parts for my old '85 from Steeda and had great results. I was unaware they did installs and tuning as well with the size of their operation. I'll definitely give them a call and get some pricing...anyone else have any...

    Good stang shops in south FL?

    Hey guys, I just moved to Pompano from Tampa and am searching for a new shop to have work, when needed, done to the car. I have dealt with a couple shops in Tampa, including Ramsey's, that were great and am looking for the same down here...kinda a down to earth, reasonably priced place. I've...

    NEW 03'COBRA OWNER, NEED SUGGESTIONS!!!

    I live in Florida as well...you can go a couple routes with the tune. A lot of guys, including myself, buy a handheld tuner and then have a shop fine tune the car on a dyno from there. The Predator is pretty much the best out there right now and can be found on ebay new for a reasonable price...

    ATTN: Duner - need a pic of your cobra!

    Wow...that looks every bit as good as I had imagined it would. Thank you for the pics. If you dont mind me asking, what tire sizes did you end up going with? I like the look of the Toyo's as well. Nice job on the car overall...it might soon have a twin here in south florida :)

    ATTN: Duner - need a pic of your cobra!

    Rogue Cobra from Salem directed me your way concerning pics of a black Cobra with black FR500 wheels. I am very close to going with the same combo and was looking for some pics before I make my final decision. Also considering the Eibach Pro-Kit to go along with my install and was wondering if...

    opinions on a contour svt

    I would definitely try and talk him down. 71K on a '99 isnt terrible but it definitely isnt ideal mileage for the year...$6K might be a little more realistic if the car had 51K miles. Wholesale value on the car right now would be about $4K, so you can judge fair private party value from that...

    Pics of FR500 wheel on 03/04 Cobra?

    I've been looking for a black wheel with a polished lip and a set of FR500 replicas caught my eye the other day. Just wondering if anyone has any pics of these wheels on cars so I can make a final decision. A black car/wheel combo would be perfect...been combing the internet with no luck so...
