    Slack In Timing Chain

    After talking on the phone to the guys at the machine shop who built the bottom end, turning the engine by hand, and watching the cams and crank for about an hour I came to this conclusion. Between the supercharger running a higher boost and having a much stiffer valve train in the heads, the...

    Slack In Timing Chain

    I just fully rebuilt the 4.6 3v in my 2007 mustang. Upon reassembly I used a brand new FRPP timing kit. Got the car running and tuned but when I left the shop after it sitting overnight it started clacking in the front. It was a random noise, not in time with the rest of the engine. I pulled the...

    Long tubes or short tubes?

    I always thought pacesetter was a fairly reliable name. and yes they are less expensive but i figured it was because they were only painted. i was gonna have them ceramic coated locally.

    Long tubes or short tubes?

    I got the Pypes Shorties and they're good headers, however i'm fed up with them and about to buy some pacesetter LT's. When i got them put on i called my tuner and he said they didnt tune for them because they dont make any extra power! then why the f*** do you sell them?

    800 HP

    CT is right. Throw a good suspension on there, brake upgrade, some lightweight wheels with sticky tires and then take your car to a track day where a professional driver can teach you how to drive properly. I don't mean that to suggest you cant drive, but true road race driving takes skill and...

    Exhaust Mod Ideas???

    ive got a set of QTP electric cutouts that work like a dream. had em welded on just before the x-pipe. I have the switch, wiring, motors, cutouts and y pipes. I'll sell em to you for $250 if you're interested. If not, my next suggestion would be to get a nice set of LTs.

    OBX LT headers

    You should PM AMNick, i believe they still have a sale on the Pacesetter LTs. Its not a big deal, it just wot run as efficiently as it could and your CEL will come on. Only way to do O/R without a CEL is via tuner.
