    4.10 vs 3.73 gears.... AGAIN.....Road Courses

    I think.... your overthinking it. You are right, that 3.73 are "best" for road courses, but it will vary depending on the exact road course your running. In some cases, the 3.55s may actually be better. You'll want to avoid going into that long fifth gear at all costs, so if there is a...

    436 TO THE WHEELS

    congrats! I am looking forward to a Brenspeed trip at some point. The guest house idea is great. Just curious, that seems like quite a difference in HP and Torque numbers. I didn't see a cam mentioned, so I am guessing your redline is at 6500. Is it common to have much more power than...

    speed guidlines

    That is actually an even better idea. There could be different levels of license, and the plate could be a different color for the more advanced drivers. In finland, it apparently takes several years to get a "full" license, and that involves lots of track time, hydroplaning, etc. This...

    speed guidlines

    brilliant. The speed limit could be a percentage of your cars top speed. On the interstate, say, 70% of your top speed. On a Mustang that would be 105. I still cant believe something like the autobahn exists. Those germans are crazy. Can you imagine? No speed limit. There is a huge...

    Radar Detectors Are Now Worthless

    Thanks for the info everyone. I think, at the very least, I am going to request the info on the type of radar and any notes the officer took. I have a growing suspicion he actually was not able to get a good reading giving the conditions, and I can argue the point.

    Air Ride Suspension

    Check out this vid. Now, I know some of you will claim this is too "hoopdi", but I have heard good things about the performance of the air ride suspension. Think about it, you can custom tune the spring rate to fit any condition, on the fly. Combined with some sort of electronic...

    Radar Detectors Are Now Worthless

    Mine has a radar detector-detector function. It has only gone off a few times. Probably not the best.

    Radar Detectors Are Now Worthless

    Got a speeding ticket the other day. 98 in a 75. First off, I was not going 98. I know I was speeding, but I was keeping it around 85. I hit the brakes as soon as the detector went off, so I know I was decelerating while the cop was getting his reading. I think, either my speedo is off...

    Spring 2009 Build

    was the 13.1 in Calgary? 3000+ feet, it could make a difference. I know the elevation has less of an effect when your talking forced induction, but it still may have slowed you down a bit. Although the 115mph trap shows that this was a low 12 second car with proper traction. I cant wait to...

    New (to me) Mustang GT horror story

    Damn, modding gone bad. I am surprised the guy was able to do so much, so badly. I would think he would not have been able to even remove the original parts, if the mechanic skills were so laking. That is scary. Were they able to get it back together correctly? What did it cost?

    Exhaust

    From what I understand. (not an expert) You'll loose backpressure and thus torque by going with a larger pipe. I think there are two main reasons exhaust is not the first mod most mustang owners go with. 1) the mustang exhaust is already pretty free flowing from the factory, so there are not...

    Bye Bye Grabber Orange GT.... :(

    Nice deal! Fusion Hybird is on the top of my list of next potential cars, so good call on that. And getting them to go 4k over fair trade is great. It is a great time to buy right now....

    New Sound for an 09 GT Premium Shaker 500

    yup, more than likely it is a peice of interior trim rather than the speaker. Get some dynamat. The reason a mustang is affordable is because they dont do a lot of refining to the design. That means, its just a chassis, an engine, and sometimes, they throw in a huge powerful sound system as...

    MUSTANG WINS! - Car and Driver front page!

    I am wondering if an article like that will actually hurt the coyote's chances. If the mustang is competitive now, why ad a better motor? Also, I have to wonder how the coyote will fit into the product line. It is supposed to replace BOTH the 4.6L and 5.4L engines. Does this mean, our...

    Help with new sneakers

    I went with Falken Ziex 912 because it was the least expensive I could find in my area. Tire Details - Discount Tire And I have to say, I am very impressed. The ride is very smooth, road noise has been significantly reduced, and the traction has been amazing. I even took them to a track...
