    22HP from customer tune, axleback, and midpipe

    no, the dyno compro was not done on the same day. the conditions on the good pull was better but you are right it is a great bump. to tell you the truth, to drive the car after the tune is night and day. no matter what, the car makes a ton more power and sounds great.

    Hooker or BBK?

    i think the other thing you need to look at is ease of maintenance. i dont know what shop is putting in you headers but i assure you that the maintenance will be north of four hundrad dollars. well if you have a five speed you will be changing out the clutch sooner or later. the cheaper long...

    22HP from customer tune, axleback, and midpipe

    well than i am spot on. the axle back and mid pipe together made 17 hp on the brenspeed tune. the key might be that it is a 3" pipe vs the typical 2.5 now to tell you the truth the brenspeed tune leaned out. the tune on my car now makes more power and is safer. i dont want to bash brenspeed...

    any good how 2's on mounting battery in trunk?

    you guys have me confused. why would you even consider putting the battery on the lt side. with the tortion of the motor the right rear has much more weight than the lt on a hard launch. if you have to have to put the battery in the trunk that is the only place to pull it. have you ever seen...

    any good how 2's on mounting battery in trunk?

    alot of people i talk to say to stay away from it. consider this, the battery is on the right side now and also set back in the engine bay. if you are from the school that beleives every little bit helps than go ahead. but i have been advised against it. these cars are much better balanced...

    Next Mod...(help me out plz)

    i would get the upper and lca's. but if i were you i would keep some extra money in the account for the clutch upgrade. if you do the upper and lca's with your drag radials you will be launching you car at 5000 rpm's. the stock clutch does not like that for long. but since you are doing the...

    throttle spacers and aftermarket intakes.

    i have talked to a couple of s197 tuners and they say to stay away from them. this i not like you are putting a 1" spacer under a 5.0 upper intake. they look good but dont do anything for performance. if you are looking at an intake, i say get it and spend a couple more dollars and instead of...

    First 5 mods

    the easy way to explain it is to say that there is a throttle plate in the intake system. it is supposed to help with gas milage and emissons. the plates replace those and basically clean up the intake track. they dont do much on a daily driver, but if you drag race the car it is a good...

    ? about 4.10 Gears

    it is all in the install. if your mechanic knows what he is doing then it wont whine. also you can talk about the "m" and the "a" part numbers all you want. but in my opinion if ford will put their name on a part made by motive, that is good enough for me. i had the 4.10's by motive...
