    The smell of new Nittos

    What do you define as "normal driving"? I put mine on and they have tons of grip so I hit a few corners a tad faster than normal (in a secluded area away from other cars and people) to check it out and they smelled like burnt rubber then. Now that I have some miles on them, they don't smell...

    13's N/A possiblities

    Is this a 5 speed or an automatic? List looks fine but the real "path" to a good et is hooking the car up to the track/road. Look at Drag Radials, lower control arms, welding in the torque boxes and spot welding the tubes. If you can afford the extra $120 get full length weld-in subframe...

    How long to install springs

    That is assocated with bump steer and changing your roll rate by lowering the car more than an inch. When you do the springs you really should consider also doing the bump steer kit, X2 Ball joints, and C/C plates... Bo

    H&R Super Sports and CC Plates?

    My understanding is if you drop it more than an inch that you will not be able to get it aligned without the C/C plates. They are not too expensive and appear to be an easy install. I just received mine in the mail and I am hoping to put them on this weekend along with the Steeda comp springs...

    Differences between subframe connectors

    SFC's are definately a good mod. Metcos are highly recomended where I am but you will pay more for them. The Steeda SFCs have additional torque box support. To me that is a very good thing if you plan on launching hard... When I finish my engine mods I will be looking at one of these two... Bo

    Engine pinging at ~5k RPMs

    If the gas doesn't work, try these... - gently clean the MAF with a Q-tip, it could be sending erroneous readings causing your engine to lean out... - O2 sensors... - maybe even the Intake Air Temp sensor Best wishes Bo

    got beat by another mustang

    If you could hook up better you would definately do better from a stand still. For that get some nittos and lower control arms. If you are looking for more HP quick and easy, then maybe a plenum and throttle body combo. That adds about 10 HP and torque. Neither of these mods will effect your...

    IRAQI Vet with a Q?

    :flag: :flag: God Bless! :flag: :flag: Did you get to put any kind of fuel treatment before you left? I am not sure what you might need if you didn't. Might get luck with just some injector cleanor added to the tank. Battery might be dead... Jumpers or a new battery may be needed...

    Analyze my dyno-1999 GT Auto

    It looks like it runs out of flow at around 4850 rpm's. Where it is restricted is the next question. Are these the 99+ PI heads? There are lots of things that could effect these readings... TPS is maxed so it is telling the puter to dump max fuel in and the mix is not all too bad although a...

    2 questions about my Accufab 75mm TB and C&L Plenum

    The cap addresses the symptoms but doesn't fix the problem IMHO. I am going to have my computer flashed for a tune on the 17th and I am going to have them flash the idle pots as well. It will be fixed properly then! :flag: Bo

    Wanna see some sweet KB dyno numbers?? Check this forum thread...

    Considering how conservative it is currently set up at??? I am sure it will hit 550 rwhp when they clean it up a bit! Bo

    1st Mod Motor Mustang...Need help!!!

    Just my opinion... but I wouldn't use the C&L MAF. Some dyno tuners will not touch your car if it has one on it. I guess they have a rep. The rest of the C&L bolt ons seem to be very good though... Bo

    C&L Plenum and Accufab 75mm TB are not hype to me anymore!

    I definitely know this to be true. I am in the middle of tearing my car apart for a supercharger install. One reason I have not been to the track is that they are closed in my area for the season. By the time they re-open I will have to make other mods or they wont let me on the track anyhow...
