    CAI or Shifter for First Mod?

    if you got the cash-first mod=gears. actually, your first mod should always be a drop in K&N from your local autozone, then gears and shifter. forget the cai for now. The last performance mods i put on my car were cai and pulleys....

    what are svo heads?

    they have the old non pi style ports-but ported they will make more power than ported pi heads. Houston Performance has two cars-one with ported PI's and one with ported SVO's-and the ported svo's make 40more hp.

    Dynoed new car

    and Lean will not always make more power. Mine is naturally aspirated...and when we tuned it, (it had been running rich) we leaned it out to the 14.5:1 range. Then i had him fatten it up, and it made MORE hp with it at 13.5:1. Then i had the car retuned-and its making its best numbers...

    Dynoed new car

    got news for you-a lot of cars pick up more than 40hp with a tune and those mods. the other day when i was at Houston Performance, i watched an 03 cobra with: Catback, K&N, and pulley put down 400 at the wheels. Then they did a tune-picked up 40hp. Then they did another tune-picked up...

    Can't find any plastic CAI's

    i think maybe just a tad-no huge difference. the difference was once i had Lt's,offroad h, catback,plenum/tb, and a new clutch and flywheel installed. It didnt pick up a huge amount of peak hp and torque after dyno testing it(it was running super rich) BUT-it picked up TONS in different areas...

    Can't find any plastic CAI's

    i will say this.... Some people say pullies wont give you any horsepower, maybe 1-2rwhp. People also say that the factory air intake is fine-for the most part i belive that. But-just YESTERDAY-i added Stedda pullies, and FIPK2 to my combination. Then i went and dynoed the car to see the...

    99 GT, fuel guage sucks, why?

    ive had the same prob a couple times with my car. Not too long ago, i put 5 bucks worth of gas in the car(was in a hurry), and when i got in the car, cranked it up-i noticed the gas gauge went right to the same place it was before i put gas in it. I knew that wasnt right, so i gave it a...

    Performance Questions

    for me-it was an awesome investment. mind you, a stock tune wouldnt have changed anything. infact, id tried a SCT chip with a stock tune and it didnt increase horsepower in the least bit. The only advantage youd get from it assuming your car was running in the right a/f(not running too rich or...

    Pics of Dead Stang..

    its not a PI intake-its a non pi intake with an aluminum crossover, effective solving the cracked intake problems that those cars have. i after i replaced two intakes on my 98, i bought the updated version-and it never leaked a drop after that. Hell, after i replaced it the first time, the car...

    Where to get a good dyno tuning in TX?

    My 97 cobra Temp. gauge stays on the A on NORMAL.

    stock radiator is fine. It will help though, if you pull it out and take it to a radiator repair shop and let them hot tank it and clean it.
