    Photos of spoiler delete and detail!

    I just ended things with my girlfriend of 4 years, what better way to pass the time then spend 6 hours professionally detailing my car :D. (claybar, polish, wash, wax you name it... went over the car with a toothbrush) I've always wanted the spoiler off but the gf loved it. She's gone, so...

    Add 35hp for free!

    Yeah, so through shear stupidity I've figured out an easy and free way to add 35hp for absolutely free without affecting the torque curve! And best of all, it requires only basic tools... ... ... ... ... Install your number 7 spark plug. Yeah for longer than I care to remember and since I...

    why would my car be so light?

    Is your car actually a V6? Pop the hood and count the spark plugs. That or the scale is in kg? That'd put your car at 6,578lbs which seems more likely to me. Did you have some plus sized models and a full tank of gas in your car? Maybe your friend with the fox weighs like 300lbs which would...

    so i cut my springs today!!

    I think I paid $250 for my eibach pro-kit..... but yeah, cut away if you want i guess... Based on the numbers you quoted your spring rate went from 180lbs/in to 193lbs/in that's definitely more than a slight change lol. We cut the springs in my friends Scoupe since it was a beater parts...

    getting a new edge

    Don't fear the auto, its so much more rewarding to slide sideways into second gear when you know your not 'cheating' to do it. Just raw power and a good strong shifting auto :D. Anyone can hold the clutch that extra second and power shift to squeel out into second/third, but when you do it in...

    Noob Tuning question

    This is as newbie a question as they come. I apologize in advance. First of all, do I need a tune, would I benefit from one (see sig for mods) Second of all, what are the best options for getting a tune? I know there are handheld tuners, but, can the dealership tune the car? Do you...

    Lowering springs without spacers/bigger tires?

    Anyone have any shots with a typical drop (Eibach pro-kit for instance, ~1.5") without larger back tires or spacers? I've had the front springs installed for awhile now but have been hesitant to install the rear springs for fear of how it will look without big tires or wheel spacers...

    Quietest Performance Muffler?????

    I love my super turbo's, they are not much louder than stock at idle but have a completely different tone. At full throttle they scream, are plenty loud enough for me and everyone else for a few blocks that can hear them. And they're really not THAT quiet, at 7 in the morning on the way to...

    Made a new grill after 4.6andslicks

    Anyone know of a substitute for the black neoprene that goes around the outside??? Did you order the kit, or use some ingenuity? Maybe some rubber window trim or just a chunk of small diameter black rubber hose???

    soundclips of magnapacks and prochamber?

    that sounds an AWFUL alot like my dynomax mufflers /w o/r prochamber. probably alot louder though. It sounds like stock just deeper at idle, and sounds like a nascar at 3000+ it just gets LOUD!... plus i have a leak at... guess where... passenger side header-midpipe. I love the way the...

    Revving at other stangs

    Thats funny you say that, everyone thinks the 99-04's are slow. When i pull into a gas station i always get "wow that sounds nice, how'd you make it sound like a 5.0" "What motor does this have" 4.6 "Ahh that sucks, why didn't you get the v8?" Let me just say that I'm talking TO OTHER...

    show us the AALLLLTTTEEEZZZZAAAASSS

    If you wanted to be unique why couldn't you just paint it a non-factory colour. Also whats so unique about buying the first thing that pops into every import enthusiasts head: I NEED ALTEZZAS AND DECALS!!!!!!!!

    Did some work, Now when car is slowing down in gear, sudden drops in rpms...

    If you were raised so smart why are you street racing on the way to work??? Is it possible you reflashed your computer and erased the tune or something? My last car had a custom tune and one day the factory chip fell out of the bridge chip and it acted very erratically but still ran...

    poll on mufflers

    I love the way the dynomax mufflers sound *shrugs*. I think too many people associate dynomax with the Dynomax race bullets which are basically straight pipes and sound like gutted SLP's... They are fairly quiet (well not that quiet) and give it a really unique smooth tone. Here's the only vid...

    O/R Pro Chamber Install

    I haven't decided if mine leaks or not yet, i've come to think that the noise is just the p/c itself as i know it sounds odd inside the car. It hasn't hurt mileage at all so w/e. I reused the factory passenger side gasket and the Mac flange gasket on drivers side.

    Mustang engines and sound

    4.6 4v>4.6 2v>5.0 the 5.0 sounds like a truck imo. The 4.6 has a nice exotic tone. I've owned a 5.0 before btw, i liked the way it sounded but even then i thought the 4.6's sounded better. It really depends on the exhaust set-up, there are some 4v's that just wow me, but for the most part...

    1996 Mystic Cobra

    Are you serious???? What kind of body shops have you gone to! I personally could paint the car better in my garage than how it came out of the factory. Do you think the factory wetsands the cars in between paint layers??? Since this is a Ford, do they even do more than one layer??? :rlaugh...

    Think my car already has springs?

    I'm going to guess Eibach Pro-kit's, they have eibach written all over the spring, rub off some of the dirt and see if they're sparkly black. However in your picture they do look stock, its possible someone cut the stock springs. Definately not stock height though. This is stock, honestly...
