    First mod ordered

    My first mod was my SLP loudmouths. I was tired of driving a musclecar that you couldnt hear lol, more specifically one that I couldnt hear. But now the bug has taken a hard bite, have HID's, Pypes xpipe, jlt intake, SCT tuner with brenspeed tunes, 4.10s and sequential tail lights all going in...

A couple weeks after that I will be having 4.10s installed in the car, im wondering if I should order my tuner programmed for 4.10s and wait to do everything until I throw the gears in, or...

    2006 Mustang GT cabin air filter?

    Yea I replaced mine a couple weeks ago. My 06 GT has 48k on it and i dont think it was ever replaced before me, it was nasty. quick simple 5 minute job and i was done, wipers did not interfere with the cowl on mine either.

    Post pics of what you drove before your s197

    Post pics of what you drove before your s197

    Ive had two sports cars other than my s197 since I was 16. My first was a 94 camaro, nothing special, stock. Some lady took care of that when she hit me head on after she crossed a double yellow line. Second car was a 1995 Eagle Talon, turbo, bunch of mods, built motor, small turbo, cams...

    What's causing this??

    You probably had a bent wheel on the back, and its now on the front. Take it to a wheel repair shop and have them check the front wheels to see if either of them are bent. You wont notice it until they are swapped to the front, so thats why you might not have noticed it with it on the back.

    Aluminum Driveshaft

    Like Shadow said, an aluminum driveshaft would not MAKE more hp, it would simply free up some hp that was otherwise lost through drivetrain loss, in this cause due to decreasing the rotational mass of the driveshaft. I believe a while back I heard that for each 10lbs of rotational mass taken off...

    Tips for running at the track?

    I would suggest just learning your car for now. Dont mod it yet. Break into the 13's get below a 2.0 60' then mod it. adding more power and not knowing the sweet spots on your car is just pointless.

    Fuel filter or pump

    Were you driving it when it died? Is there much gas in the tank? Its probably the fuel pump, fuel filter would just make it run like crap not just decide not to run all of a sudden. The reason it probably stopped working was it got hot while driving, probably at a half a tank or less. The gas is...

    Tune & Exhaust note?

    If my theory is incorrect somebody correct me, but im pretty sure its due to the amount of fuel being burned that makes the exhaust louder at any given rpm. say at 2k WOT you are burning a larger amount of fuel with the stock fuel maps as compared to your aftermarket tune that is leaned out. The...

    Steeda Suspension Installed!

    Looks amazing after the full drop. Keep us updated as it settles in, it should lower a little bit more and the ride should probably get even better. Im performing an internal battle as to drop or not and if I do ill fight about which kit to buy. This will be some influence :)

    Flowmaster or SLP?

    They pop a little when cold or free revved. But once warmed up its sweet music to my ears :) I got mine from AmericanMuscle, very good experience, fast shipping, loved it.

    Got some draglites from a buddy's foxbody can i use?

    A while back i picked up some Weld wheels from a kid who worked with me that he had on his fox, got em for 20 bucks for the rear pair. Im now toying with the idea of some M/T drag radials on my 06 gt, however im not sure if with the offset he used on his fox that they will work on my 06. He did...

    Flowmaster or SLP?

    I vote for the SLP loudmouth axle back. I just put mine on my car 06 gt last thursday and ive been finding excuses to go driving just to hear them. They sound amazing. No drone, they are just what I was looking for. If you want an idea on what they will sound like, just pop your mufflers off and...

    Spent the day buffing the stang

    Yea Vista Blue has an awesome shine to it when cleaned up. Great job, especially for just doing yours by hand, kudos lol. I remember the days of doing it by hand, I would feel like my hand was gonna fall off at the end of the day haha.

    Spent the day buffing the stang

    Its a very lengthy process using compounds and polishes. It took me roughly 8-9 hours, but thats with some breaks in between i couldve probably done it in 5-6 if i wouldve just done it straight through. Of course I clayed prior to polishing :) And yes the rotors rust pretty much instantly...

    Spent the day buffing the stang

    Got up this morning and spent pretty much the whole day buffing the car. Paint didnt initially look horrible but during the polishing process I realized just how bad it really was comparing the un-polished parts to the polished parts. I am very happy with the results, I spend so much time...

    Bad idea for removing water spots.

    Ive never tried the Lucas stuff but I would recommend Optimum Instant Detailer & Gloss Enhancer, comes in a blue spray bottle. Also their spray on wax is great when you dont have time or feel like actually taking the time to wax the car.
