    pi head info needed

    if the heads are only 250 bucks, I would get them and send them off to be worked over and a good P&P. Then put some agresive cams, better springs, valve guides, valves, lash adjusters and followers. You'll have a really good gain over your stock PI heads and cams.

    CAI, TB and plenum installed, but problem

    I have the BBk CAI (same as mack) and Accufab Plenum and TB, I have the same sound, it either goes away after about 6 months or you just get use to it. as long as you don't have a MIL, you're good.

    Mechs in Southern Cali.

    It's gear whine.... Depending on how big the difference is, you could have 3.73's, 4.10's or even steeper. What's your speed at 3k RPM's? If it is always there, I would be concerned that they were not installed properly. You should only have whine at certain speeds and not all the time. I...

    P1504 Intake Air Control circuit malfunction??

    I got that code after my headswap. Do I have to change out the IAC now? I had a code reader and the error it gave me was Auxiliary inputs Veh. Spd. Idle Speed Control Is this something I have to get a tune to fix or did my IAC go bad during the swap from sitting out for a few days?

    Falken Tires

    I have the FK451R's or something like that and they are great. They hook pretty damn good and are a pretty good all around tire. I believe they were rated #1 at one point.

    Stangers with SLP loud mouth in L.A.

    You know what...SCREW MAGNAFLOW and SCREW FLOWS and SCREW SLP...... It's all about BASSANI you BIOTCHES!!!!!!!!!!! Ok....Seriously though....BADGT makes a very valid point. Someone inquired about SLP and wanted to hear it. There is no reason to hate on it and make judgemental coments. A...

    Stangers with SLP loud mouth in L.A.

    Glad to see we still have some old farts into mustangs. I think it's fairly silly to categorize people by saying “Get SLP if you want to sound like a kid wishing he had an old musclecar.” Not only is it silly, but it shows how opinionated and egotistical old people can be. I’m only 31 and I...

    Stangers with SLP loud mouth in L.A.

    Let's try to get back on topic here. The SLP set up IMO sounds SWEET. I have had a few different systems on my car and love the way the SLP sounds. If I could do it all over again I would either do SLP or all Magnaflow or all Bassani. I have heard BADGT02's car and it sounds sick...

    Well, it happened again...

    Don't feel bad, I managed to put one of the sprockets on backwards when I did my headswap. I chewed up both tiiming chains and the chain guids. So my car is non-op yet again!!!! :nono:

    Headswap break in time and some ?'s

    OK, this really sucks. I didn't have a gasket so I used RTV to seal the EGR at the plenum. My car still runs like sh ! t when it's cold. Maybe I should say DOESN'T run when it's cold. It dies. I checked all my lines again and can't figure it out. Why would it run when it's warm but not...

    Headswap break in time and some ?'s

    You know...you might be right. Now that I think back, I didn't see a gasket on the plenum OR the egr. Do you really think that little thing could cause the rough idle til it was warm? Either way, I think you just nailed it because I didn't see a gasket and just said F' it cuz I was tired...

    Headswap break in time and some ?'s

    Hmm....I'll check that. It's doing the same thing my car did when I forgot to plug my MAF in. It's plugged in this time though.

    Headswap break in time and some ?'s

    That's pretty much what I thought. I'm fairly convinced it's just the whole break in thing. I'm going to double check everything tomorrow and go get the codes pulled at the auto part store.

    Nah, I'm running shorties. Do I need mils for shorties?

    Headswap break in time and some ?'s

    That's what I though, but it runs smooth once it's warmed up. Drives really smooth in stop and go traffic. So I don't think it's that. I don't have a gauge though, so it might me. I'm going to double check all my conections tomorrow. The thing is I let it run for 15 min. after I cleared the...

    Headswap break in time and some ?'s

    I did a search but didn't come up with much. Now that the swap is done and I have driven it I have a few questions. 1) How many miles should I run it before I go for WOT? I'm keeping it around 3k for now. 2) Did anyone else notice more "ticking" with headers? or is it the infamous "PI...
