    Anybody have a centri S/C and 4.10's?

    I've got 4.10's with my centri as well...I think that you'd find them less steep than someone with a KB setup running 3.73's....the centri doesn't kick in till pretty high rpm's so day to day driving is almost exactly the same

    mustang tuning rims?

    they have a good quality rim....I'm on my second set....they put their own centercap in now....just started a month or so back...I believe most of the aftermarket 'replica' rims are very similar in quality...none are quite as good as oem, but it's hard to beat the price

    White Letter tires on our cars???

    I concur I don't really see how small details such as putting a little paint in the lettering of a tire should be called rice....I don't see why any one mod can make a car "ricey"....I consider cars that are way over the top "ricers"....not cars that have one or two mods that I don't...

    Which upgrade?

    If you plan on doing the work yourself....I'd go with forging the internals....then save up for a KB 2.2 next year and be happy....ever since I got my s/c....I've wanted to forge the internals to up the boost....but it's gonna be forever before I can afford that....overhaulin the engine is going...

    issues during start

    Mine is the same way...sometimes It'll start just fine....then after I'm done getting groceries or whatever....i get back in the car and have trouble turning it over....problem never existed before my s/c install...so I was thinking it was either related to extra stress on the pulley system, or...

    issues during start

    ever since I installed my s/c I've had issues with my car starting. It seems that it takes a lot longer to turn over than before...sometimes I have to hold the key over for a longer period than I'd like to. I was just wondering if this was due to the different gapping in the spark plugs...or...

    suspension alignment ? w/ coilovers

    he said he didn't have enough playing room to get the right settings....either in caster or camber (i can't remember)....I didn't question him on this because he came highly recommended from the local mustang shop...he said he could get proper alignment by over compensating from the toe-in...but...

    suspension alignment ? w/ coilovers

    so I just got back from getting the alignment....not too happy cuz the guy had said he had to slot my struts in order to set everything right...cost me another 50$. Overall I'm glad I finally got this done cuz tires are expensive...but I'm not happy with the $105 it cost...The guy also said...

    Next Mod - Suspension or Wheels?

    you could do the wheels and springs first...then keep saving for more suspension components...I'd say do suspension first....but it seems like suspension is never complete...always upgrading just like the hp bolt ons...everybody wishes they had just bought a s/c instead of spending the same...

    suspension alignment ? w/ coilovers

    ...just curious...I plan on trying this tomorrow, but how likely is it that if I adjust the suspension to make the welds the same height that it will cause the car to look like it is sitting funny....i mean...how out of whack are the factory body panels generally. I don't want it to look like a...

    suspension alignment ? w/ coilovers

    I was just wondering if you ever had all four corners of your car sitting the same height...my two rears are right at 27" to the top/center of the fender...but there is about a 1/4" variance in my front two...one sits at 26 1/2" and the other is at about 26 3/4"....I spent hours trying to work...
