    What's max SAFE hp of stock 2010 GT w/ boost?

    One guy on another forum blew his bottom end with a twin screw running 9 psi. He said it was cold outside and he was laying into it hard. He feels that the pcm was advancing the timing too much. Then again FRPP sells a 500 hp twin screw with 11 psi. Do you feel lucky?

    Popping noise coming from under strut bearing bracket?

    The Pro kit seems to be as low as you can go with a nonadjustable strut mount. Sportlines are too low for the GT 500's and the stock one's. You need to go with any that have adjustment in them. I don't believe you can pick any up for under $300. There's no cheap way the lower your car that much...

    Good Shorty Headers?

    I have BBK shorty headers. I put them on Feb. '09 with the stock H pipe and the FRPP tuner. Made the car rumble louder and felt minimum performance gains. In July I added the BBK high flow catted x-pipe. Made the car sound noticeably louder but with the same FRPP tune I lost low end power...

    best tuner?

    I have a feeling that he owes his suppliers money and they may have cut him off. All you die hard BC fans, keep buying email tunes from him so he can get financially caught up(lol).

    best tuner?

    BC after 37 days didn't send me the X3 I ordered and I had to dispute it with Visa. Ordered it from Brenspeed and had it at my front door within 2 weeks. Very happy with Brenpeed's customer service and performance. Way faster than the FRPP tuner I got last year.

    Caster/Camber question

    I replaced just the springs last year and the ride was bouncy. This year I put on the Eibach struts/shocks and it rides like it should. The factory shocks in the back were getting locked up after being compressed constantly. Get an adjustable camber bolt for the front steering knuckle to get the...

    throttle body questions

    The stock TB is a twin 55mm. I put on the BBk one which is a twin 62mm. The only P.I.T.A. was getting out the TPS bolts. I would do it again. As for Bama I waited well over a month for a X3 and couldn't get in touch with him so I had Visa refund my money. I contacted Brenspeed and had the thing...

    School me on the CAI/Tuning

    I have a Mac too. Why is it I can't get a tune emailed to me when I can get messages emailed with no problem. Also Sparty92, I think it's a waste of money to go from 3.55 to 3.73. At least I would go to 3.90 or 4.10.

    Deals on Black Bullitts, also where do I get taller rear tires?

    CJ Pony parts has those stock Ford wheels(8.5") with BFG 255/45/18 instead of the stock BFG 235/50/18 for $1418.95. With Nitto's $1338.95. Don't forget to add $300+ for new tps sensors and bands. If you go wider with oem wheels they start to look like you're riding on donuts and you will have...

    Problem with B_m_ch_ps

    This isn't about kicking him when he's down. I was very disappointed about the whole situation. If you can't fulfill an obligation the ethical thing to do is to refund a person's money. Now he doesn't have to deal with an angry customer. He has to deal with Visa and they will get back their...

    CMCV Plates, will it pass emissions?

    I live in MD too. I hate this state. I know someone with a lowered Eagle Talon that said he got a pass because his car wouldn't clear the dyno.

    So should Ford get rid of the Shelby Stangs and bring back the Cobra?

    Here's a brief history lesson. C. Shelby invented the Cobra Roadster, GT350, GT500, GT500KR, Super Snake, etc and owned trademarks on them. In 1968 Ford bought the rights to just the Cobra logo but none of the others. Ford then renamed the 428 the 428 Cobra Jet in 1968 1/2. Shelby and Ford...

    Plugs

    Years ago no one used champions except in Mopars and lawnmowers. Seems like they're trying to move up the food chain. Brenspeed sells a brand called Brisk that appears to be a one piece. Wish E3 made um. They make them for the V6 but not the V8 for some reason.

    Problem with B_m_ch_ps

    Thanks for speaking up. I was beginning to think everyone was a true believer here. I'll be taking my business to Brenspeed.
