    Supercharger Update

    I got to step 50 something, manifold is off the car. I found a mouse nest under the manifold, who knows how long it has been there. The KB instructions have been good, possibly color pictures would have helped. So far so good, I will let you all know. I have not done this much work on a car...

    Spark Plug Removal Hot Or Cold?

    Hi Guys, I already posted this, but thought I would follow up here as well. I started with a cold engine, cracked them 1/8 of a turn, soaked in pb blaster for about 24 hours. I got all 8 out no sweat. I worked them back and forth, no screeching but a few scary moments. I went real slow and...

    Spark Plug Removal Went Great, On To Super Charger

    for what it is worth, I ran a tank of 91 octane through in preparation for the supercharger install, engine was not started for a day, turned plugs 1/8 to 1/4 turn, let pb blaster soak for slightly over 24 hours. I gently worked the plugs back and forth, a few turns were fraught with terror...

    Can Someone Help Me With Some Wife Friendly Mods?

    Why would I trade in a wife who took pictures of me ordering my super charger, a video of it being delivered and pictures of me with the boxes? She also does not understand why I don't want to upgrade to a boss 302 or a shelby. How great is it to have a wife who TELLS you to buy one of these...

    Can Someone Help Me With Some Wife Friendly Mods?

    My wife really dislikes riding in my 06 mustang! She is tiny and does not like sitting so low, nor does she like sitting on pillows. I had posted a while back on how to raise the seats, but we could not come up with a way to do it safely. Is there a way to raise the seat? The problem is she...

    ok guys cash is in my hand for a supercharger...which one

    I have the cake! Now I have settled on the stage 2 kenne bell, but do not want to make a mistake, if the mammoth would fit on my stock engine, I would just buy that one. I will write kb again and ask if they can give me a tune if that would work. My car is a street machine, but I want to get...

    dumb question regarding flowmasters and headers

    Whoops, (my wife is right, I never say what I thought!) I was wondering how I would swap the mufflers without knowing what aftermarket headers I have on the car. I didn't want to make the assumption that it was remove and replace and find out it didn't fit. I will look at the muffler you...

    dumb question regarding flowmasters and headers

    I hate these flowmasters! How do I figure out how to replace them, as I do not know what headers I have? Are all aftermarket headers same as stock? I don't drive the car anymore!

    back seats are in!

    I got some great parts from prestige mustangs in GA. They sent me the brackets and parts that I needed, plus some extra's. Good service and they made sure they sent me the right parts. The funny part (no pun intended) is that the parts look like they came off a much better car than mine! It...
