    Best Tires For Saleen 18x9 and 18x10

    ^^ are those NT-01's? Aren't those road racing tires? Not drag radials. First time I've seen them on a mustang. Anywho, I have 275/285 on my 18x9/10 saleens. The tires are Falken GR-Beta FK452's, which feel amazing in the corners, although I wish the rear tires were at least 295 because...

    Lowering 04 Vert?

    I bought the tokico HP kit from ebay. $400 give you springs and shocks for a nice mild drop. Here is a before and after. The after is the night that I did the install so it probably settled a bit after that. Cutting off a full coil on the front made it settle even more...

    Best exhaust system for my 02 GT?

    I heard a stock-ish GT a few weeks ago with a MAC prochamber and SLP loudmouths. Baddest sounding 2V exhaust I have ever heard.

    Clutch Recommendations...

    My buddy has a spec III on his camaro SS. He only has bolt ons making 350hp and a viper spec T56 and his clutch is slipping bad now at just over 20k miles. I'd say go with another brand.

    Someone with an auto - tell me what the SCT Xcal2 can really do??

    I just bought my Xcal2 from John Lund and got a base street tune for 93 octane. I told him all my mods (intake, TB/Plenum, longtubes, hi-flow cats, flows) which isn't really much, and he modified the tune accordingly. He's never seen my car and it didn't go to a dyno, but it woke up the car...

    New wheels...

    I have 3.73's and 18x10 saleen replicas in the rear with a 285 tire, lowered on tokico springs. Looks great and doesn't rub on a damn thing. Gears feel great too, especially now that I got an Xcal2. If you get the 10 inch wheels in the back, I'd go with at least a 295 because my tires aren't...

    Educate me on 4.6L turbo systems

    Hellion all the way. I wouldn't buy any other kit. Seen a 76mm kit on a cobra in person and it is truly a thing of beauty. Go to www.svtperformance.com and look up 'TRBO VNM'. He's making 750+ hp in his cobra and is also a hellion dealer.

    cutting front springs

    I cut a half coil off the bottom of my tokico springs after no more than a month. The fronts are linear so it doesn't really matter if you cut them, only height changes. Lowered the front of my car perfectly.

    difference between 18x9 and 18x10?

    I have hypercoated saleen replicas 9/10" with 275F/285R. You can probably fit a 285 or 295 on the 9" rim with no problem. The 285s are actually not wide enough for my 10" on the back but I got them used so I didn't care. All I have to say is these rims are heavy as hell! I had 01 cobra...

    Help ASAP, Mustang almost caught on fire!!!

    Maybe your name should be burningplastic then... Lol, anyway, I can see where that hose connects to the plenum and its just an air line, but where does the other end of the hose go? Take some pictures of the other side of it.

    Throw in another few bucks for the grille delete and mach 1 lip please. Believe me, it'll do wonders for the front end. Nice car though, great starting point.

    So Mustang Week is less than a month away...

    Sounds like a good plan. Wish I could go to Mustang week. I didn't know about it when I got my car last year, and I drove down to MB with my parents and girlfriend for a weeks stay. Turns out we missed MW by 2 weeks. Woulda been great cuz MB is a fun place and we had an awesome condo to stay...

    Third brake light tint

    Meh. I just threw some regular tint on mine. I think the blacked out look is better.

    where was you're first job at?

    Worked in the wash bay at a joint Ford/Dodge dealership. Sucked because I was only 15 and couldn't drive any of the cars in and out. I do remember riding in a cobra or two, but that was back in 2k1 before the terminators. Loved that exhaust sound, even stock.

    Don't fear L/T install

    You didn't support the motor at all?? I supported it the first time with a jack and 2x4, which ended up putting a nice dent in the oil pan. Then used the front of the oil pan which worked much better. My LT install took forever.

    BEEF JERKY

    Truer words have never been spoken. My neighbor used to hook me up with homemade beef jerky all the time. Best food ever. I love jerky but hardly buy it because of all the damn **** that gets stuck in my teeth. Hurts like hell and sometimes floss doesn't help.

    what size is the abs sensor bolt?

    I tried that 1/4 inch socket thing and it didn't work too well. I believe the bolt is an E8. I had to make an hour round trip to sears in the middle of my longtube install to buy the set at sears.
