    What now?

    I did not get a full baseline. They tried to do one but cut it off before winding it out. My car was detonating big time. It was running very very lean. Was like above 14 or 15 in A/F Ratio. Measurement was 219hp at first, but like I said did not wind it all the way up. Made some adjustments on...

    Anyone know how to removed rusted rotors? Working on it now, need fast reply

    Same thing happened to me. Pounded and Pounded with regular hammer after PB Blasting the crap out of them. Eventually went to Home Depot and bought a small mallet/sledgehammer that had some good weight in the head. Took that to the rotors and a couple hits and it popped right off. Just need...

    STG 1 CAMS 101

    I am considering getting some cams too. What would it cost to have them installed? Not sure I would want to tackle that myself.

    What now?

    Yeah, I would consider stage one cams, but definitely don't want smog problems or lose any low rpm power. That is what i like the most. I don't rev her out too much. Definitely not dragstrip car. I just like punching it on streets and freeways. Or just plain showing off.

    What now?

    I thought about cams and LTs as others mentioned, but I don't really want to bother with the LTs unless I can pass smog with them. I don't want to switch those out every time I have to smog. Too much of a pain. Maybe cams, but I have heard they won't add too much power for the money. As for the...

    Question about upgrading to Cobra front brakes...

    if your rotors have not come off in a while, you will need to spray down with PB Blaster and then get a big rubber or metal mallet to pound them off from the back. Not real hard, but the heavy weight of the mallet will help them along. One of mine took some time to get it to break free.

    What now?

    I just got my car dyno tuned today and I was running super lean. Car runs much smoother now. I put down 251/285. So basically I believe I am maxed on on power without getting into the engine or adding a power adder of some sort. Only thing I have not done is touch the headers, but those seem...

    Need help on a situation with my g/fs GT

    I enjoy the MRT H-Pipe. Uses Magna Flow cats. It is SS. Bit on the pricey side though, or at least when I bought mine. It may have been luck, but I passed smog with it too. Barely, but did. But I took it to a gas station that did not look like they were real serious about visuals.

    Can't get car to start

    I just did a search about something similar. This is what another member said about another person that replaced their intake. "Some coolant probably leaked into the plug wells either during the install, or they are leaking after the install. Pull the coil packs...

    Can't get car to start

    You are sure you hooked everything back up? Does it even turn over but not start? Start but then shut down, or just click?

    Not bad. Not bad. But would prefer the RKs for sure. But they are close.

    Finally replaced my cloudy / foggy headlights

    I just paid 80 for the pair and 32 to ship them. Nice deal.

    Well its time for some new wheels

    I find that most people rarely put these on their mustang probably due to the price, but BBS RK's are cool.

    Anyone passed smog in CA with a non-50 state legal exhuast setup?

    Not necessarily true. I replaced my mid-pipe with an MRT stainless steel midpipe with 2 cats. They are magnaflow cats in the pipe. I kept my original stock one that has 4 just in case. I decided to try my luck with the MRTs first before switching out. Made sure to drive around first to...

    Rear Brakes??

    thanks for the info. For the most part it was for cosmetics to match the front, but at the same time a little performance. But at this point, my pads are gone and it is starting to grind. If I can just grind it down and fit the cobra bigger rotors with the stock calipers then that is an idea...

    Rear Brakes??

    Hey everyone.....I know there are plenty of threads on rear brakes and installing them, but I forgot something and I could not quickly find the answer. I was going to upgrade my rear brakes to the Cobra Brake Kit (I have already done the front some time ago), but having to remove the axles...
