    How much do you owe on your Stang?

    Thankfully, I paid in cash up front.

    Dead battery light is turning on and off HELP!! PLEASE!!

    Are you running underdrive pulleys? If so, this could be one cause if your light is coming on at low speed/RPM. My battery light comes on all the time, but my voltage doesn't drop. Once you get it scanned, if it doesn't throw any codes, I wouldn't worry about it.

    Got Imulsive. Should be where I want HP wise now

    Degreeing the cams should help you out a little bit - 400 to the rear is definitely possible - I just hope that having N/A cams doesn't hurt you. PTV shouldn't be an issue as long as you re-program your shift points to a conservative RPM level.

    hello all, 05 GTO here- gf has an 03GT

    JLT or nothing - I was watching my IAT on the livewire when I had a MAC CAI (metal piping) and when I installed the livewire the temps dropped anywhere from 20 to 30 degrees depending on speed, etc. The cheapest/most effective mod for your GF would be, as mentioned earlier, either gears or a...

    Fresh Off Dyno...Numbers Way Low?!?

    I was Dyno'd by JAWS Racing here in Tallahasse, FL - with an Auto, no cams, shorties, basic boltons, at 259RWHP and 292 RWTQ, without nitrous. Your injectors may be maxed out with your heads and cams, upgrade to 24LB and head back to the tuner/dyno.

    headers??

    Flowtech's or Mac's can be had for under $500. Both are long tube.

    Coil Packs / Plugs

    If you're going to swap out the COP's and Plugs, go with those accels but stay away from the NGK's. Get some original Motorcrafts, it's not uncommon for aftermarket plugs to shoot out of the heads.

    Are you getting a new tune after the headers get installed?

    Aftermarket ignition cops, safe???

    It's perfectly safe. Based on your mods, it looks like you would do much better with the WeaponX COP's. Much better.....

    VVME HID Question

    I've had mine for over a year (I have my ballasts zip tied inside of the front bumper right behind the fog lights). They've done fine in all of the ****ty Florida weather, weekly car washing, etc. I purchased them from VVME and no problems at all. Recheck your ground wires AND your connection...

    Control Arms???

    I'm running Granatelli's and consistently get 1.90 60's on Nitto Drag Radials, automatic trans, and 3.73's - stock stall. The Granatelli's uppers and lowers are solid, and as long as you grease the bushings every 6 months or so they work flawlessly. Don't waste money on MM's or other flashy...

    Toxic Fumes Coming thru Vents W/ AC On?

    +1 on the "who did you piss off" comment - you're lucky they didn't cram turds into your a/c and engine intake, as I've seen that one too. Also, check the engine bay for rodents or rodent droppings. Rodern urine (I know from hamsters back in the day) is the most potent urine-like smell I've ever...

    2003 4.6 Rear end gears

    I put in 3.73's and wish that I had gone with 4.10's. With 3.55's on a MANUAL trans you won't notice anything, maybe a tenth at the track.

    cam help

    Tune FO SHO! Your idle should improve a bit, but a cammed motor tends to have that smell like it's spitting a few drops of gas out the back.

    Calculations - the REAL effect of rotating weight

    my aluminum DS looked much wider (larger diameter) than the stock clunker - not sure on actual specs or dimensions though

    wingless pics

    Decided to take off the factory rear wing this afternoon and give the car a wash - I liked it so much I decided to go ahead and temporarily plug the holes and keep it that way for a while. Opinions?

    Well the motor blew up tonight...

    Agreed - I run a 125 wet shot with no problems on stock block.
