    Post Pypes O/R H pipe install

    It is trumpeting. Brenspeed told me it's from the 3v motor. Personally I hate the noise but like Bigcat says you learn to drive around it. Also the hangers are not long enough and they hit the brackets. I just bent mine back a little and this really solved that problem.(I didn't use a...

    ? about 4.10 Gears

    Should have listened back at the end of July. But better late then never. My FRPP gears have never ever whined. Why would anybody take a chance on those Motive gears? So many people can't be wrong.

    Difference in ET times with 4.10 gears?

    I changed from the factory 3.55's to 4.10's in my 05 and my times didn't improve either. I believe some of the problem was very hot track temps with the 4.10's. And I'm still running the stock tires. Wheels spin was a huge problem. Even when I would get a real good 60 ft time I would blow it...

    Launching on street tires...

    I've tried lots of different rpms. It's pretty hard not to spin the tires. I would say 2,000-2,500 yields the best results. I changed gears to 4.10's and it makes it really touchy with the stock tires.

    CAI and tune, gains really from the tune?

    I have heard and read that the stock air box isn't very restrictive. And that the big gain comes from the tune. I have the jlt 2 and brenspeed tunes but I've never tried the tune seperate from the cai.

    Headers!!!

    Did you install them yourself? I was looking at getting the Kooks as well but I'm not sure if I can do the install. Thanks in advance.

    300 rwhp?????

    You hit the nail on the head. Without the cats the sound is exactly as you described, but only at certain rpms. Brent from Brenspeed told me it was due to the new 3V motor. I'm going to get resonators on mine soon. I've heard they take care of the raspy sound.

    300 rwhp?????

    I believe it might have been Mustangs and Fast Fords. Nothing I have a subscribtion to, just something I picked up off the shelf. Sorry I don't still have it. Didn't mean to start a big fight with the kids on here just something I did read and was passing along. By the way I do have the...

    300 rwhp?????

    I saw an artilce in a magazine that showed an O/R h pipe did lose hp but it gained torque. They bolted on several different things in search of 300 rwhp. One of the last things they did was install an O/R h pipe instead of the high flow catted pipe.

    ? about 4.10 Gears

    I had the FRPP 4.10 gears installed. The guy who installed them said they were the nicest gears he's ever installed. If you buy the FRPP gears a few months from now you'll have forgot all about the extra hundred bucks they cost you. But if you install the Motive gears you might always be...

    Bama/Brenspeed...

    Don't feel bad, I emailed them 3 weeks ago and have never heard back. I have always had really good responses from Brenspeed.

    07 Stang on Horsepower TV now

    They had it all put back together several weeks ago. But they wouldn't put it on the dyno because it needed some serious tuning because of all the mods. I never have seen them dyno it. Maybe I missed it maybe they've never shown it yet.

    Don't understand!

    I agree. I have used my Garmin on many road trips and I am convinced it is very accurate. Just my 2 cents.

    ? for anyone with 4.10 gears

    I've had mine for a month and would not go back. You won't be sorry. Much more fun to drive. (I have a 5-speed)

    The best of the best. CAI + Tune !?

    I have a jlt2 with sct. But I'd also have to believe that the CAI is mostly looks. I read quite a bit on the Kenne Bell web site and he convinced me they don't do much if anything. According to this site the Steeda intake was good for a whopping 1 horsepower. Lets face it they are not...

    Lowering Springs for Convertible

    I put on a set of the FRPP springs a few months ago and really like them. It looks a lot better and rides a little firmer. I would do it again.

    Hurst v.s Steeda Tri axe

    I'm sure there the Steeda is a good shifter but so is the Hurst and it looks awesome. The Steeda is a snooze to look at. Anyone can look in the car, see that white Hurst knob and crome rod, and know it means muscle car. Heck it would be worth the money just for the looks.

    just look

    I like them. Probably would look good on a black Mustang. If you get them be sure and post a picture, maybe I'll get em myself.
