    GMS tb problem

    The only bad news on them is that people dont know how to set them up correctly. There is a setting in the PCM that controls "dash pot" this is what needs to be set in the tune correctly to fix the idle issues where it does not return to idle quick enough. It can also have a higher idle (idling...

    How much RWHP?

    I think it is a personal preference - not an absolute "best" choice out there. If you have a safe tune and good fuel you should be fine with any of those choices. If you talk to JDM, those guys have lots of Saleen S/C cars running over 550 RWHP without a single failure. They have been very...

    How much RWHP?

    Okay I completely disagree with that statement. The amount of PSI does not determine your limit. There are lots of people at 13-14 PSI with a supercharger on stock engine. I have 12 PSI and never had any engine issues. Besides, the different superchargers/turbos create different power levels so...

    OK......Who is the Man for a Custom tune?

    Brenspeed is an awsome tuner. Brent White can tune just as well as any of the above mentioned people.

    driving a un-tuned auto with a gear

    are you talking about the user defined settings or in the AdVantage III SCTsoftware used to create the tune? I believe the only place you will see shift point in milesper hour (MPH) is when you are making adjustments as an end-user in the hand-held. Shift points are set in MPH in the tune...

    driving a un-tuned auto with a gear

    BS - You will be just fine. The tranny shifts are based on RPM so the gear chang behind the transmission won't affect your cars shifting points negatively at all. I ran 3.73 gears in my car for 6 months without changing the tune. The only negative effect was the extra 1800 miles it put on my...

    Changing tires, floor jack too high (anyone else find this)?

    They make jacks for lowered cars but you can throw down a 2 x 10 board, drive up on that and then your jack will fit. Just be sure to put it back under the tire before lowering and drive off.

    brenspeed or bama chips?

    It is BreNspeed not BreMspeed. Brent White is the owner.

    Safe HP level w/automatic

    You base this opinion on what? My 5R55s transmission was toasted after only 440 RWHP for about 3200 miles. I wish I had only read your post before that happened so that I did not have to replace it. (Nobody can guarantee that your tranny will hold that power, sorry. )

    Glow Shift Gauges + Pod

    So are you trying to unload them or use them? Gauges are one mod I would not buy low-budget substitutes for.

    Roush Ducktail Spoiler

    A mustang GT Outlaw? What is that? A regular Mustang GT with six guns and a cowboy hat? Or maybe a special vinyl sticker package from a dealer?

    ??? Coil on Plug Upgrade????

    So that doesn't mean the OEM work better than aftermarket. The same cars might be making 625-630 with upgraded coils. I am running the 60,00 volt GMS COPs and they are an awsome modification. They improve performance, the car idles smoother andaccelerates better. They give 5-10 RWHP on a N/A...

    Drag radial question

    That tire is 25.7" tall. It is way to short.

    3.73 or 4.10?

    3.73 is the best all around gear for the automatic, especially with forced induction. You will reatain some highway performance with them and have better gas milage and still increase your acceleration over the 3.31 gears. If you drag race you should determine with your setup if you still want...

    New Best 1/4 mile time 10.73 at 128 1.58 60ft

    I run 100% stock suspension too. No control arms, relo brackets, anti-roll bar, shocks or springs have been added. My short times are 1.50-1.63 all the time. The stock suspension on these cars does quite well in my opinion.

    Forced induction question???

    Nostalgic look? From what era? Whipple came out with these in 2007.

    LSD in 2005s - simple question, no guessing.

    All GTs have LSD whether auto or manual. Ford has never put an open diff in an S197automatic tranny GT sorry.

    which super charger to get? I need help!

    My dealer installed my Kenne Bell. It has been flawless since I bought it. I bought this car in January 2006. I have been a customer of Kenne Bell for thirty years, since Jim Bell built the fastest Buick Stage 1 cars in the 1970s. Two and a half years of drag racing this convertible and I am...
