    I really like my Stang!!

    I love mine too. Probably my favorite car to date, but I'll always have a soft spot for my first car, a 96 mustang GT. Dan

    Ahh, cool. I really wanted to get one when I was looking at CAI/tuner combos, but I just couldn't justify the added expense. Dan

    I would generally agree, but as you said, there are many variables. The WMS intake, for whatever reason, doesn't outperform the C&L racer or the JLT II intakes, and both are considerably cheaper. It is a really nice unit, but not really any better. I'm not sure why, since I would typically...

    Bang for buck. Long read

    To do tuner, cai, and gears you're talking about a grand, but it will make a huge difference in the low end power you want. The tune from a good tuner will make a huge difference in throttle response and power across the board, the intake will help here and is pretty good bang for the buck. The...

    Just Picture it... The Nose Job on Vista Blue

    Walter, I voted option 3, but I'd put it fairly low on the mods list. I love the way the roush looks with no chin spoiler! Dan

    PINGING visited - again...sorry this one is kinda long...

    +1 on the gas, and I'd find a good local dyno tuner and get a full custom tune. How much has the weather changed in your area, that can cause it to, but not too likely. Dan

    One of the reasons I picked the JLT was the strait large pipe and it has, from what I have seen, the biggest filter (it and the WMS are probably close). I think filter size has as much to do with it as everything else. Dan

    ball joint question, 2005 gt with 20" saleen wheels

    Since you live in the north, it's possible that some salt crap (or other crap) got in the boots and corroded the ball joint. You might try re-packing the ball joint boot with fresh grease once a year in the spring time (after the snow has melted and the salt has been washed away). When you get...

    I've heard that the WMS units do peg the MAF pretty quick, which is why they came out with the 95mm MAF tube. I like the idea of the strait shot to the TB, but I don't honestly think it makes much of a difference. The C&L racer and JLT II are about the same, I would go with either of those. Dan

    ball joint question, 2005 gt with 20" saleen wheels

    The Steeda X5 ball joints raise the spindles about an inch, which helps if the front is lowered to correct geometry but hurts if the front is not lowered. Stock replacements will work fine for probably about the same amount of time as you stock ball joints laster, which is probably as long as...

    Steeda Solid Upper Control Arm

    Keep in mind that the griggs torque arm costs about $800 and has to be welded in, so plan on $1k installed. For those of you wondering why that would be worth it, the torque arm will completely (utterly and forever) remove your wheel hop issues, while increasing traction (both forward and...

    Steeda Solid Upper Control Arm

    Walter, you need to get a torque arm from Griggs. Expensive, but from everything I've heard it's night and day from the midget of a UCA we have on our cars. Maximum Motorsports is supposedly working on one, but after 4 years who knows when it will really come out... Dan

    new kenne bell mammoth super charger

    I know blow by racing put the mammoth, 2.8L blower, on a forged stroker with ported heads and cams. With a 2 1/2" exhaust and a ford 9" rear end they made something like 750 RWHP at 17 PSI, though they did have to rev it to 7k to get those numbers. Dan

    GT500 wheels + Big Brake Kits: The Truth about fitment.

    Sorry I'm no help Walter. They, or the Ford GT knock off wheels, will probably be your best bet, I would just get what you want and then measure to see if you need spacers and how thick. Dan

    ROUSH front bumper cover???

    Personally, I really like the roush front fascia without the chin spoiler, I think it makes it look more aggressive.

    How to upload a tune file into your XCal2 - The Mustang Source EDIT: to get the software, go to SCTflash.com, tech support (at the top), device updates/downloads, I believe you will need both the update software and the drivers. Dan
