    I got some Q's regarding X-pipes.

    Yup, or combine your Flowmasters with an O/R X-Pipe and scare little children like i used to. Sounded amazing to me and was raspy while also deep. All personal preference

    Building an engine on a budget..

    I think a stock motor would last about 5 minutes with his setup lol. I say go all out hehe and just go get a MMR 900 block. DONE.

    Installing 3.73 gears

    Also, spend the extra $50 on a t-lokj rebuild kit at that kind of mileage just to be sure. Might as well get everything done while the diff is taken apart so you don't have to pay for labor down the line to fix something again. Preventative Maintenance

    Ever NOT want to drive the stang?

    Actually lately i haven't wanted to drive my car. Funny thing is its my only mode of transportation, but the fact that it has rained here 33 days in a row or something crazy like that makes me not want to drive it. Its constantly dirty and with the windows up and a/c on the car feels slower and...

    Help me analyze my track times...

    Actually some of the info is not 100% dead on. The reason your trap speed is good and your Et sucks is because you are spinning in 1st and then into 2nd. Meaning the car has enough to run better since it traps at 100 once it finally gets traction, but your ET sucks because you waste time...

    Going for 14's

    I say with an auto a very good mod for you is definitely a handheld tuner/ sct xcal 2. It will bring the car to life with the ability to adjust the shift points and of course you'll have firmer shifts as well. I'd say thats a must-do mod for an auto. Also, a nice stall/torque converter combo...

    Installing JLT...Need Assistance

    Yes, except you READ that its gains 12rwhp on their website (reading a dyno sheet is still reading). Im not knocking the intake as i have one as well, but 12rwhp is not gonna happen with just a JLT. Manufacturer's claims are not really good to go by. Magnaflow claims their catback adds 10rwhp...

    Installing JLT...Need Assistance

    You're kidding right? 12rwhp from a JLT RAI? try about 3-4 and then add the TB/Plenum and you'll get around a total of 10-12rwhp or so. Don't believe what you read. Maybe if you go and throw a JLT on with a TB/PLneum and then get a TUNE you'll see 20rwhp or so, but most of that will probably...

    Installing JLT...Need Assistance

    I have the JLT intake like you and installed it at the same time with a Accufab 75mm TB and C&L PLenum. While it felt like i di gain some power, it was nowhere near 20rwhp, maybe about 10rwhp or so and the car pulls harder after 3k rpms

    ~Vid~ New Mac o/r H + magnapacks

    Yea im really not a fan of the "blatty" sound that Magnapacks produce on our cars at all. Its like a non-stop popcorn machine.

    Need some awesome rain tires for the front

    Yup, best street tire IMO and they are amazing in the rain. I can actually lay into it a bit and somehow they still don't spin when its wet. Just slip for a while and then hook up and go. The dry traction is phenomenal with them as well, so best of both worlds and they don't cost a fortune.
