    Why do people delete their spoilers? Aren't they functional?

    even below the roofline some gain might be made and not always does a spoiler cause drag either

    Why do people delete their spoilers? Aren't they functional?

    thats what a large wing is for :D but honest truth sometimes you might see for lower speeds ppl will still use a wing and it does give some effect though granted you will not see many of them on the street because they woud look fugly and cause way too much drag but some manufacs have...

    Why do people delete their spoilers? Aren't they functional?

    that might be but there are other good things that can come from a well thought out spoiler and you don't need to go uber fast to see the point in having one

    Why do people delete their spoilers? Aren't they functional?

    SHOStang your right most are pointless the ones that generally work are small and almost wonder why they are even there that taurus wish I could see a picture of it but most of the functional ones just extend the lip on the rear out a little more to help with aerodynamic drag and lift...

    Will Gears Void Warranty?

    Will Gears Void Warranty?

    also as far as the person who brought up pullies saying since the alt was spinning slower that is what caused the failure sounds like a cop out of warrenty service if anything I think the pully would help make the alt last longer

    Will Gears Void Warranty?

    amen to that so lets say you install gears then throw a rod those gears are not going to be the cause of failure now are they? BUT if you break your rear end that might be another story or maybe even axles but unless the break was caused by the gears themself then you are safe so just...

    Why do people delete their spoilers? Aren't they functional?

    man you guys seem to be shafted with the spoilers the little spoiler on my car will reduce aerodynamic drag AND cause negative lift (AKA downforce) kinda funny mind if I get a pic though cause I can't recall what they look like off the top of my head

    DO you ice your intake after runing at the track??????

    I understand that a intercooler generally has more surface area when in referance to a intake manifold but there are spots on the intake manifold also where dwell time does stand a little longer the plenum is one though the surface area vs volume still isn't the greatest there but still the...

    DO you ice your intake after runing at the track??????

    he didn't say anything about N20 in the motor but rather spraying the intercooler with it N20 has some very good cooling props when it goes from liquid to gas form it tends to take a lot of heat from the area around it. spray it in the motor or on the intercooler and it is going to draw heat...
