    Lowering

    I just ordered H&R Supersports and KYB AGX fox-body struts off Ebay based on what I saw in 007's thread. His vert looked sweet! However, I'm really nervous that the front may be too low since my MRT catted H-pipe already has clearance issues going over speed bumps. Add Maximum Motorsports...

    Kenne Bell Switch Chip in advance of Supercharger kit?

    O.K. after re-reading the GEARS section I've decided to stick with the stock gear ratio. 3.27 x 5500 = 17985 which is right at the supercharger's max of 18K rpm. Thanks all.

    Kenne Bell Switch Chip in advance of Supercharger kit?

    I did email the question to KB and their email auto-reply says it may take up to 7 days to get answer :mad: so I decided to ask here as well. I was considering the 3.73's because I think my mustang is extraordinarily heavy and the KB supercharger is in most likelihood 6-8 months away. Auto...

    Kenne Bell Switch Chip in advance of Supercharger kit?

    I thought so too, but then I read on their website that 3.73's were optimal. Kenne bell 2V tech tips I have an automatic.

    Kenne Bell Switch Chip in advance of Supercharger kit?

    I have an automatic and I'd like to run 3.73's. However, since I plan on getting a KB 9 PSI blower eventually I'd like to avoid having to pay $400 for a Predator or chip to correct the speedometer since the KB kit comes with a chip. Is it possible/practical to buy the switch chip (or the...

    Another new KB dyno sheet......

    Awesome numbers! And that is one sweet stang! :hail2: :OT: That drop looks clean, too. Did you use the standard Steeda springs or do they have special part number for converitbles?

    FINALLY. After 3 years I've killed the 4x4 look! Review of parts:

    Looks great! Your other mods are sweet, too. Makes me proud to be an automatic vert owner. :nice: Any chance you could list part numbers for the springs and shocks/struts you used? I want to mimic your setup to get rid of the 4x4 look on mine.

    Steeda 5-link come with springs?

    I'm in the same boat. After reading the Mustang suspension basics article I'm convinced that the 5-link is the way to go for the rear and that a tubular k-member w/coil-overs is the way to go up front. But all this is gonna cost just $2K. That would severely cut into my supercharger fund. But...

    KB 9lb w/automatic

    Hey thanks for the link! I love the way they scientifically and dispassionately lay out the pros and cons of each mod. I remember being frustrated at the delays in the relase of the 4.6 kit years back. But the more I read the more I appreciate it and realize it was worth the wait.

    MRT catted H: Initial impressions

    I'd like to co-sign on this description of the MRT catted H-pipe. It's a thing of beauty. :nice: I feel like I need to baby it when cops are around because it really roars when I get on it. Actually competes with the stereo now. (I often wonder which ticket I'll get FIRST...the exhaust, the...

    KB 9lb w/automatic

    Where did they make this suggestion? Their web site says "Lower gears not necessary". I wouldn't mind throwin in some 3.73's to help my heavy automatic vert but I've only hesitated because I plan on getting their 9PSI kit

    Stainless Steel bumper inserts question

    It's technical because he asked about the definition of 30 guage vs. 20 guage...something I was wondering myself. I was just about to order some 16 guage ss inserts from fordpower.net. But after this discussion about raised letters, I might hold off. I think flush letters would look nicer.

    For those with AUTO and NEW Gears...

    Hey how'd you guys with an AUTO and gears correct the speedo? ...And how do I make my sig font size smaller? I thought I chose the smallest one when I created it. :shrug:

    Will 295/35/18 tires be ok on 18X9's?

    I have 18x9 Chrome Mach 1 replicas from AFS Wheels. (Very pleased with them, btw). I first ran a pair of 295/35/18 Good Year Eagle F1 Supercars on the rear with no issues. Looks phat. I wouldn't try it on the front, through. Now I run 265/35/18's all around just so I can rotate tires. And it's...

    FRPP blower kit for 99+ GT?

    :OT: *Not legal for sale or use on pollution-controlled motor vehicles. :mad: If KB can get their supercharger kits CARB-approved and smog certified why can't Ford? :bang: This market needs more competitors to reduce the currently inflated prices. $4000 for a an air compressor and...

    Automatic transmission problems

    Don't overlook the tranny mount. I had "clanking" in my last auto stang when engaging the gear until I had it changed out. It's like a crossmember for the tranny made of metal and rubber. Leaking fluid can dissolve the rubber. I believe it was about $40 from the dealer. And if you've got leaking...

    '99&+ rear bumper on '94-'98 Possible?

    That stang looks pretty impressive from the rear and ok from the side. I agree that the front didn't fare quite as well. But I'm surprised no one called BS on "Makes 332rwhp without nos." Is this possible with 'just' a $ean Hyland port job, cam$ and a Bullitt intakeit-in-the-shorts??
