    Dyno Tune vs. Bamachips 91 Race

    My tuner did basically that. The A/F was pretty good so he just kept adding timing. After 3 pulls the handheld was maxed out on timing, so we stopped... To that end, and this is vs. a Bama 93 race, I went from 303 to 306 RWHP, with gains throughout the RPM range (as high as about 5 lbs of...

    DD/Auto-X suspension options?

    The rod ends don't really bother mean, until they wear out and start knocking... I'm temped by koni yellows, but I'm not convinced that it would really be worth the money to me (~$750 for the set). Thanks for the alignment specs. I'm looking forward to that, Walter. I tend to agree, I don't...

    DD/Auto-X suspension options?

    I'm looking to replace my shocks/struts springs and swaybars with aftermarket ones, and was wondering what you think the best options are. To be specific, I'm looking for a relatively inexpensive setup that will stiffen up the car. Basically, just something to make the car a good double duty...

    Octane Boost

    I dunno specifically, but it's easily possible that something in the booster could, over time, foul plugs. Dan

    anyone running a o/r h+muffler delete+resonators?

    I ran just the M-80s for a while with LTs and an O/R-H. Loud as all hell, I mean seriously loud. Lots of drone on the freeway (from 2200-2800 rpm). I put the stock mufflers back on, so it was M-80s into the stock mufflers, sounds good but too quiet for my tastes. Now I have some flowmaster 40s...

    anyone running a o/r h+muffler delete+resonators?

    Was that a 302 or a 351? The old 302s are a far cry from the 3Vs. O/R pipes are a pretty prove mod on these cars. Dan

    Fuel Injectors?

    What Klaw said. There's a grey area, around 380-400 rwhp, where you could use either the stock (29 lbs I believe) or upgrade to 39 lbs injectors. But bellow that bigger injectors will not help and could hurt. Dan

    C&L intake manifold

    Several people getting very bad results with this intake, dunno if it's a tuning issue but I would wait until we see some more results with it. Dan

    thinking about a supercharger

    Any reason why you would go with the roush over the saleen at 5-6 lbs? Dan

    Octane Boost

    People have run e85, but it may degrade the fuel lines and possibly the pump with prolonged use. We already run e10 (standard gas is up to 10% ethanol, or it might be 15% now), so mixing e85 with normal gasoline should dilute the ethanol enough to keep it from harming your car, while bumping the...

    Throttle Body

    My guess is a tune will be required. I'd call them to see what the their TB comes with. Dan

    Car not feeling the same...

    Weather can have some effect, but I bet a good bit of it is just you getting used to the power. I feel the same way about my car sometimes, but it's all in my head:D Dan

    Upgrade Radiator?

    +2, might as well while you're at it. How much are they giving you? You can get some of those radiators cheep off of e-bay. Dan

    Throttle Body

    Not really sure Klaw, other than to say the monoblades should outperform the twin bores by a wide margin (I'd guess ~30-50%). Though a 62mm twin bore should be fairly close, the monoblade should still be better (has 15% more surface area). Dan

    Throttle Body

    The man is correct. Also Techco ports the stock TB to 62mm, linky. I'll probably go that route, as it's the cheapest. Dan

    Octane Boost

    Best octane booster I know of would be adding some E-85 to your tank. 50/50 mix would give you roughly E-50 and probably in the area of 95-97 octane rating. Might shorten the life of any rubber in your fuel system though. Dan

    Classic Muscle car sound for people 40+

    Unfortunately, the 3V tends to get pretty raspy when you take out the cats, I find this more so with LTs. Different people have different solutions, but a lot of people are finding that adding resonators in the typical mid-muffler position tends to help a lot while not reducing volume too much...

    mustang gt vs. charger rt

    I'd say it's a drivers race, but the mustang may have the slight advantage. With a CAI and tune you should have him though. Dan

    Upgrading from stock 16"s to 17" bullitts

    Umm, I thought the stock wheels were 17's, mine are anyway... Dan
