    Mach 1 Chin Spoiler???!?!? :(

    That REALLY sucks. I was going to get one not to far in the future and paint match it to my car. Looks like I'll go with the ROUSH Stage II after all. Thanks for the info.

    bad gas milage, please help

    Tuners can kill your gas mileage. I go an XCalibrator 2 with an aggressive premium gas tune, and my MPG dropped by 4-5!! I went from 24 to 19-20. My car is a daily driver and not only was the cost of premium gas killing me, but to get 5 less MPG really sucked! I just returned my tune back to...

    4.10's vs 3.73's

    EXECELENT post! And for all of you thinking about gas mileage, look at it this way. There are simple and easy ways to ensure you maintain and even get BETTER gas mileage from your gears. First: Under drive pulleys. The name speaks for itself, at the upper RPM's you reduce the drag on your motor...

    Why do some guys with c springs get a level drop?

    SCT Xcalibrator 2 Problems Help!

    Sounds like your gear ratio is all messed up. The X2 is not all that it is cracked up to be. I have an X2, but if I had to go back I'd get the Diablo. You can't do squat with the X2 as far as "user" adjustments. Even if you have an XTR file you can't do much anything, and you can adjust the...

    Why do some guys with c springs get a level drop?

    I just installed these springs today and am VERY happy witht the result. There is more of a drop in the front, but it looks natural and old school. About 1.3" in front, 1.1' in the rear. For the money, this was one of the best mods I've done so far. It makes the car look good without the...

    Buy an SCT XCalibrator 2 or go to strip club?

    OK, I'm getting 4.10's and decided to get the SCT XCalibrator 2 tuner at the same time. I'm also installing a Carputer and a wideband O2 sensor as well. I have the cash in my hand and got all excited until I realized that I needed the ECU code to order it. The problem is I installed a custom...

    3.73's installed today, and...

    You HAVE to put in a friction additive when you do gears. Some gear oil has it built in, but that's rare. Without it you may get chatter and lockups especially around turns. My guess the whine is coming from the gear oil being to thin. And make sure you put full synthetic gear oil in as well...

    I found a solution for VT stage 1 cams

    Of course everyone will say you need to get tuned for any cam install. And without a doubt if you were doing stage II you wouldn’t even be able to idle without one. But I've heard of people doing stage I without a tune quite a bit. Sometimes it may take three or four cycles for the computer to...

    So the car I JUST bought is already ****ing up on me...need serious help

    There could be different reasons of a hard clutch pedal. See if this helps narrow it down. http://www.euro-drive.com/hard_pedal.htm It sounds like things are sucking right now. But I have the opinion that if anything breaks on my Stang, it is just a good excuse to buy a high performance part...

    Synthetic oil a "waste" of money?

    There was a big article on oil in a recient MMFF magazine. I read it, but I can't remember any of it. I'm sure it said something important though. All I know is I decided to switch over to Royal Purple on my next oil change after I read it. I saw on ebay where you can get a case for $68 or about...

    FRPP 99-04 GT Blower Kit

    Looking forward to those pictures! I am also very interested in this kit. I love the torque of a roots blower, and the design is very cool as well. I think it would be a great kit for a daily driver like mine. Good luck on the dyno!!!

    Anyone running a ProChamber'd Off Road H

    The sound is amazing on a prochamber - worth the extra money IMO. My car sounds like a 600lb lion that just got his balls zapped by 60,000 volts of electricity. :banana:
