    intake plenum Which one?

    buy a stocker off ebay and p&p it yourself. sure it'll be 1-2hp & 1-2tq less than the others but will cost you virtually nothing.

    Interior door panel painting?

    thanks wannabe2000GT, i'm an 00 gt too :) the tranny temp gauge is fantastic. since i'm an auto it's really a must have imo with a cooler as well.. the afr gauge on the other hand is a completly useless POS and i should of done some searches online before just buying on. but since it was...

    Interior door panel painting?

    I used the VHT plastic primer and then their plastic paint. i didn't do the door panels but instead on a new gauge bezel that came in black from autometer. here's a pic to give you an idea of how it came out. my only thought on the door inserts and other 'touchable' interior pieces, is...

    Lowest Temp Thermostat

    i wouldnt go lower than 180 on a 4.6 but that's just my opinion. also make sure you have a way to reprogram the fan on/off settings.

    Intake Elbow - Found the restriction?

    for me personally, the c&l is ugly as sin. i prefer a subtle look not the bling bling appeal of an accufab. so port & polish then paint, and you get this as a result. and total cost was around 40$ all said and done and i still have a stocker i can resell on ebay for 20$ or whatever it goes...

    Intake Elbow - Found the restriction?

    i've been working on a spare stocker i picked up on ebay with a dremel and have been able to remove a decent amount of material out of it so far. i really don't think the roughness was a design since there's also a large seam from the casting on the inside. the interior roughness is pretty much...

    which rims would you prefer?!

    out of those 3, the third is the least offensive.. saying that tho none of them are really my cup of tea. those little nuts around the rim bother me. it makes the rim look unfinished imo.

    In YOUR opinion: Best Anti-Theft Device

    baseball bat by the door and park close to your window. if you want an actual alarm on top of your Ford PATS security, just pick up a Viper or Python or whatever DEI is calling their alarms now. They won't cost a ton and you'll be able to hear when the car is being messed with. Just don't...

    do mac catbacks drone bad or not???

    i notice more drone with my mac catback when cruising at a low speed than a highway speed. certain speeds/rpms are gonna be worse but i did do a 450mi drive (each way) and it didn't bother me or my wife at all.

    what do you guys think about these?

    50$ for a 15c radio shack resistor. i think the only 'difference' your gonna feel is shame and a lighter wallet, but thats just me.

    Tranny Cooler Questions

    i was hitting 160-165 on the highway during a 9 hour drive from niagara falls to long island. when i'd stop for gas it'd go up to around 180, and then traffic by the bridges in nyc got me around 170-180. no before numbers though since i had my sender for my gauge installed the same day as...

    with my 00 GT i had MAJOR tracking issues with my Pirelli tires.. then i put new firehawk wide ovals on and the tracking problem has gone completely away. all i did was put the new rims/tires on from tirerack, and then drive to ford for an alignment. honestly i wish i did it sooner it used...

    4.10 and Auto Tranny Shift Smoothness = other GT owners' opinions!

    I've been working out my plan on the AT as well and for a TC i've been looking @ http://www.protorque.com/ When I found out they were only like 20 min from me it gave them the edge since I'll be able to just go there, walk in, shake a hand and ask for their advice :)

    How do I return to Factory Tune??

    check your ecu in the passenger kick panel. you might have a chip in there already. if so try yanking it out and giving the pred another go.
