    Thanks for the info. That definitely helps clear things up.

    "Proper" method of eliminating CEL (O/R)?

    I've got MILs, but I'm wondering if there's a better, more beneficial way of getting rid of the CEL. IE, tuning it out with an SCT/similar. Are there performace/etc issues with just using the MILs, or is it better to properly disabled them within the computer. Is there any compensation in...

    Roush 2009 SALEEN NATIONALS PREMIERE EVENT

    Don't know. Wish I'd know about the Greenwood meet last year, that'd have been really convenient. I'm really psyched about going to one, somewhere. Obviously, one in OH/IN/MI would be easier to attend than one 1200 miles away. :) I'm assuming "Brimingham" is Alabama?

    Roush 2009 SALEEN NATIONALS PREMIERE EVENT

    Looked at the site, very interested. I've actually got a couple friends that live in Castle Rock. That said, how would I go about finding info on any of those starting in/near or passing through northern IN?

    Is it possible to not drive *enough*?

    The ironic thing about this all, a week after I stored it and dropped covereage to comp, gas went to $2/gallon... Ain't life a B.

    Is it possible to not drive *enough*?

    I thought about doing that, but I've got the insurance dropped to comp only. It'd be my luck, something would happen. It'll just make it all that more fun when it comes out of hibernation in a couple months. :)

    Is it possible to not drive *enough*?

    It's got a trickle charger on it and a full fuel tank with stab-bil in it.

    Is it possible to not drive *enough*?

    Reason I ask, I've got a '99 with 17000 miles on it. I drove it approx 1000 miles this year and now it's sitting under a blanket in a heated garage for probably another 4 months... I've already replaced a couple pulleys (upper idler/tensioner). Is it a reasonable worry that non-use could...

    So I drove my car in the snow...

    This is exactly why mine is parked in a heated garage until the snow's gone. It's more of a salt concern than anything else. One bonus of having a company vehicle, I don't *have* to drive the Mustang in this s**t.

    Quickest mods to beat LS1!!

    Yes, the most important thing is that you have the faster car. All other things in life are secondary, and by all means, race him in the parking lot at school. That's what the cool kids do.

    Looking for no BS advice on modding my S281

    I was kinda guessing it was around 280-300 as it is. It's 350-360 at the crank from the showroom floor.

    Looking for no BS advice on modding my S281

    Not too worried about suspension/brakes. It's got RaceCraft suspension (from Saleen) under it and 13" Stoptechs. The first time I stomped on the stop pedal I thought it was going to flip over it's nose. :) The beauty about the pulley, a friend of a friend is a machinist guru (over 30 years...

    How much to paint entire car?

    Luckily, my cousin's been painting cars for 20 years. A couple cases of beer and some time fixing his computer, he'd paint anything for me. ;)

    Looking for no BS advice on modding my S281

    After looking at the engine bay, and reading about header swaps, I've come to the conclusion: eff that. There's far more easy things to do than that. I may just get a CAI and pulley, then have it tuned. Minimal money and it's not something that's drastically changing the guts. What I need to...

    Looking for no BS advice on modding my S281

    Yeah. That's the "quandry" part. I could probably get a high mileage GT for cheap, then just frankenstien the hell out of it.

    Looking for no BS advice on modding my S281

    I put a MAC O/R H on it (love the sound), on the stock manifold. So I suppose, if I don't want to eat the $160 I paid for the H, I'd get shorty headers? Where does that fit into the mix?
