    Yet more suspension questions...

    the holiday season is comming up soon, and i'm trying to decide what i want for christmas. granted i know i'd like the whole MM kit (or a Kenne Bell S/C) but I know that won't happen and I don't expect my parents to spend that much on me. I'm leaning towards doing this piece by piece...

    IAT Sensor Missing on 03 GT

    I recently installed a BBK intake on my 03 GT. During the install, for the life of me I coulndn't find the IAT, so i just covered the hole in duct tape. On Sunday I went to drag day and compared my car to a friend's 99... mine appears to not have an IAT, as nothing comes off the wiring loom in...

    Filter Dimensions for BBK CAI

    I just bought a BBK CAI used... got it for $30 bucks. Only problem is that the guy didn't have the filter anymore. Does anyone know the dimensions of this filter so I can get one in the correct size? PAW said 2 weeks to get the BBK replacement filter in, and I'd like to put it on this weekend...

    SLP Loudmouth Install Questions

    My loudmouth exhaust should be here tomorrow, and I plan on installing it myself. I have a few questions, mainly about getting under the car to do this. I've got a nice floor jack and a pair of 3 ton jackstands... is this going to be enough to get the job done? Also, I've never worked under...

    Plenums!

    I have a line on a BBK 70mm TB for my car for next to nothing. If I'm doing the TB, I figure I should do the plenum too. Which one will compliment this throttle body best. Does the C&L work with a 70 or 75?

    Those with front suspension creak...

    I had an awful creak comming from the front right of my Stang... took it into the Ford dealer today as a warranty issue. I expected having to fight them into fixing it, them saying they cant replicate the problem, etc. Or that somehow my exhaust voided the warranty. But they didnt, turns...

    15000 Service

    I took my car into the dealer today for an oil change, and they asked me if I wanted the 15k service while I was in there (car has 15200 miles on it). It was $140 bucks. I said no, don't have the cash today, just do the oil change. I then looked at the service info board. The 15k service...

    Keepin it cool

    So I went to the track last night for the first time with my GT. The best time I ran is in my sig, but I was having trouble keeping it consistent. I ran everything from 14.5 to 14.9 to 15.3. I think at least part of this has to do with heat. I let her sit for about an hour before that 14.5...

    Anyone Runnin 3.90's?

    Gears of course. I'm not going to 4.10's. I was looking at 3.73's because I'm planning for forced induction in the future, but wouldnt mind a little extra oomph for now. So are 3.90s a good compromise? Or will I regret it when I do ultimately get a power adder becasue the gears will be too...

    Will a 2003 Cobra Bumper

    work with a GT hood? Figured since the "repair" costs that all these shops are quoting me on the GT bumper (not including paint mind you) is the same price as a new GT bumper i figured I would spring for the 2003 Cobra one, NOT the 99/01 Cobra (not my style). I read somewhere that the 03 Cobra...

    So what are these things made of anyway?

    I was talking with my friends last night regarding some of the repairs I need to do on my car (rock chip, hit and run) and they came to about 700 bucks worth of damage. When I got an estimate, I was told that my hood is fiberglass. I know the bumper is the urethane plastic stuff. When I...
