    Air Intake Question

    Hook a leaf blower up to it if you really think you need that much air. You wouldn't be running the right ratio if you had a v8 intake on there anyway I doubt.

    Check Engine Light

    Cold Air Intakes don't really lower the temp of the air going into the car. It just pulls in the air, most often times, from the fenderwell which is farther from the engine. The air is not in the intake system for anytime at all, let alone enough time to cool off. Pretty much what the intake...

    V6 Gas Mileage? Exaust?

    I get about 20 city/highway. I figured it should be a little better so I replaced the fuel filter, bought some bosch platinum 2 plugs, put on a CAI, bought some UD pulleys (For performance but they are supposed to help gas too) and I still get around 18-20mpg. If I drive it easy I can pull 23...

    Ford Aluminum Driveshaft!

    I have an 01 V6 auto too and I've been wondering about a new driveshaft for it too. Does anyone know if aluminum driveshafts really help much? If so what kind of gains if any does this help. Is it really just for a weightloss on the car or is does it actually help transfer power since the...

    CAI: Are they worth it?

    It's amazing how much your 200 dollar mac CAI looks just like my 39 dollar ebay CAI. :banana:

    First mods were a catback dual exhaust system, then a CAI, then a grill delete kit, underdrive pulleys, and diablo predator.

    Cr*p, Engine Problems?

    If it's missing and losing alot of power it could be a number of things but I'd check plugs and wires first to see if it can be a cheap fix. One thing, next time you run your car, start it up and pop the hood. Is the engine shaking real bad? If it is, it might be cause a plug isn't firing...

    Is it just me...

    There is an unmarked black mustang cop car around here. It's pretty cool, except for the fact that it has pulled one of my friends over like 3 times. He just doesn't seem to use his seatbelt....crazy kid.

    Questions about V6 mustangs

    No, he means the v6 will need 93 after a flash tune. Before a tune the v6 will run fine on 87.

    Need help with new car decisions

    Work your ass off for the next year and save all the money you can. Get about 10k more from the bank or something and then go and buy yourself one of the new gt500 shelby cobras if and when they come out. I've heard it will be pushing around 500 hp bone stock most likely.

    Headers and Cold Air Intake

    I'd be suprised if you noticed any difference at all. The headers won't do anything probably on your near stock v6. You have to have a good amount of mods done to the engine, not just bolt ons, to notice a difference from headers for power. As for the intake, I noticed no difference with...

    3.73 and t-lok

    Like said, the 8.8" won't fit on your 7.5" rear. I'd say buy new gears and t-lok but I think besides that and the friction modifier you'll need a gear install kit I believe. I think those are like 80 bucks too. I could be wrong about that though.

    Fun Ford Weekend June 3-4

    My prom was the first week of may, and graduation last sunday as well. Yours are getting to be really late. I went to midnight madness there a couple times and it was pretty awesome, I'd be really tempted to go except I leave the 3rd for my class trip to Florida so unfortuantly I won't be...

    Anyone have any intake opinions?

    I doubt that makes much a difference because the air is not staying in the intake long enough to heat up to make a difference really. I have an ebay intake and besides the whooshing sound I notice no difference performance wise. Probably gained maybe 2 hp at most but I never dynoed so I...

    Finally a member of the Mustang family!!!

    Congrats on your purchase. 10,900 seems a bit high but it's an 03 so it probably has very low miles. I paid a few grand less for me 01 and it only had 36k miles but it did not have duals or the gt hood or anything either.
