    New furniture for the stang

    Seats look great. I think the rears match even better than the fronts (if that is possible). Your car is seriously coming along. Every time I look here or on MPH, you have more and more mods. Too bad you don't have a vert. Rear seats come out with 2 clips and 4 bolts. Takes about 10...

    How critical are shocks and struts

    Has anyone went...

    Thats what I had planned on, but I was just too drawn into the power. I bought my s-trim headunit and almost the complete kit, then tried to sell it to get suspension stuff instead, but too many people were dicking me around so I just put it on. 350hp later, I'm trying to get my suspension in...

    Vortech Mini Race used as a BOV?

    If you want an actual blow off valve on your draw through setup, get something like this http://www.hopupracing.com/tuxsrabyvaty.html It's just a recirculating one. It is made for a VW so the inlet/outlet is 1" ID and will match up to the stock piping. Should be a direct replacement for the...

    JMS Velocity kit VS MPH Mongoose kit?

    Exactly. Steeda sends out 30lb injectors with their supercharger kits so I don't think 60lbs is that necessary. No way you will max out 42lb injectors before you blow up the motor. 03 cobra guys upgrade to 60lb injectors when they port blowers and make over 500hp. I've never heard of the...

    Vortech Mini Race used as a BOV?

    I think the concensus here is don't do it. Usually prochargers are the only ones with blow thru setups because they are intercooled. If you don't already have a blow through setup, it would be pretty hard to fab one up unless you wanna cut up your charge pipes and weld on connectors and such...

    PCV?

    Interesting. A little before I installed my blower, I put a small catch can on my PCV tube and it is catching plenty of oil. Not a crazy amount, but a decent amount. I want to get a new PCV valve, but everywhere I go to look for one, there is no part number in the little books with all the...

    More Suspension?

    Since you sound so hardcore into tracking and autoX, I would have swapped to a cobra IRS before getting all those mods. I've read up on the swap and have heard that it makes a huge difference over a solid rear in the handling department. Coilovers were a good choice but I think you shoulda...

    Starter heat shields for longtubes?

    Interesting. I've had my MAC LT's for over a year and haven't had any problems with the starter as of yet. I think the LT's are actually resting against the starter with no ill effects ::knock on wood:: You should be fine.

    Redline Tuning Hood-Struts

    I've had mine installed since last Christmas and actually installed a set on my ex-gf's eclipse yesterday on my day off. They are cake to put in, just drilling and riveting. I have the black ones and her mom bought her the elite kit, but I like both equally. The eclipse set happened to be all...

    How Well Do You Trust Your E-Brake?

    I always leave my e-brake on and car in neutral. Been doing this ever since I got the car and never had a problem. My e-brake feels very strong and the car has never moved with it on, even on a steep hill. If the hill is steep enough, I'll put it in gear, but I've forgotten a few times and...

    What do you think about my times at the track?

    Sounds decent. My first time down the quarter I ran a 14.8 but forgot to take off traction control. Mods were LT's, o/r H, flowmasters, JLT intake and MGW shifter. Eventually got it down to a 14.14 with a 2.1 60ft. Just practice I guess. Went to the track last week and my launches sucked balls.

    Ticketed for emissions tampering ?

    Guess I'll be the first on here to say yes. I guess my car was running lean or rich or whatever and smelled pretty bad with the o/r H pipe. Cop pulled me over on Rt. 1 just up the street from UMD. He must have smelled it cuz I was doing exactly the speed limit at 10pm on a sunday. I asked...

    Cammed guys what u'r gas milage?

    Same here. I have full intake and exhaust mods, 3.73's, plus a Xcal2 mail order tune and I manage around 20 if I'm lucky. Last tank I think I got 150 miles on a little more than 3/4 of a tank. It's awful. Thank God gas is going down now. $2.75 for 93 last time I checked.

    Fraternity's

    Hell no. I have friends who are engineers and in frats, and IMO they take up way too much of your time for sponsored events, parties, and ****. I joined a car club on campus and its like our own frat. We party, go on fun drives, attend shows all around the area and hang out all the time...
