    bucking when cold

    Even in the summer months I never start and go. Try and allow time for the oil to reach the top of the engine and during the winter months I never let the RPMs go over 3k until the gauges tell me I'm at full operating temperature. Cleaning the MAF and throttle body as suggested certainly...

    08 Bullitt Grille in 05GT

    True- that is a good point… in the 3D-Carbon grille none of the honeycomb pattern is closed off it is completely open… it was only in for a short time before I ordered the bullitt grille and didn't drive much over the posted speed limit so I did not notice any hood flutter. With the bullitt...

    08 Bullitt Grille in 05GT

    Thanks guys- The swap took about 15 minutes once the hood was raised. Had the 3D-Carbon grille in so I’ve been through this before… nothing major though and you do not have to remove the front bumper as some instructions indicate. The tri-bar running pony came with the 3D-Carbon grille but I...

    Tuner question

    Both Diablo and SCT are good tuners. What most people do is check around their area to find out which tuner the local shops like and use. That way if you ever decide to get a custom dyno tune from a local shop you can have them work with the tuner they are familiar with. You can also go the...

    New Agent 47 Mirrors installed ----------------

    How much smaller are the mirrors compared to the factory one's from a viewing stand point also… being in the automotive glass replacement business, is there a part number for the mirror itself, not the housing, in the rare case one is cracked or broken?

    anyone else had these problems??

    My blinker passenger side went out, or so I thought. Went to get replacement bulbs and the thing was working again when I went to put the bulb in so I tossed the bulbs in the console. Then the windows starting acting up (bounce back) while I drove down the road and then suddenly would stop in...

    Insurance on 07/08 GT?

    Actually, if I hadn't replaced the factory grille already… I thought about putting a deer lick in place of the running pony but the expense is so high now I'm not about to buy two deer licks to go on the outside of the fog lights in the new grille. Deer hunting… I never have to fire a shot!

    3D Carbon center light grill

    99GTtony... did you install the bulds that came with the kit or leave the factory bulbs in? I have the same grille and installed the bulbs in the kit and do not like the different color compared to the factory headlights... thinking about swapping the factory bulbs back in.

    Gear Swap/Kits

    Thanks Kool :nice: I was looking at late model and will more than likely order from them... my main reason for asking about the Motive installation kits... is I can get one separate at a nice price from someone I know.

    Gear Swap/Kits

    I have decided to go ahead and get the complete install kit. Looking around on some of the vendor sites I notice FRPP gears but only the Motive install kits are available... unless I didn't look close enough and with some people having whine issues after Motive gears are installed couldn’t...

    Gear Swap/Kits

    Okay, I'll assume most who have had a gear swap have gone with the bearing kit as well... so is there no difference in the Motive kit compared to the Ford kits... shims are the same size...?

    Gear Swap/Kits

    I know this has been asked a thousand times but would like some insight from those of you who have done a gear swap with 30k+ on the clock. How many of you went with just the installation kit and how many went with the bearing kit? What is the rule of thumb in your opinion when bearings are...

    Plastic burning smell????

    Had the plastic bag thing happen with the factory h-pipe and it gave off one heck of a smell... the factory pipe has been replaced now and funny thing is I thought I smelled a plastic burning smell last night. I've replaced the factory shifter as well and wondering now if it is related to the...
