    Methanol Injection?

    It would not be a good idea to mix more than 50/50 water to methanol.

    Need a quick tranny overview

    Yes, I searched and found gobs of threads but none quite specific to the info that I'm looking for. What I need is a quick (if possible) overview of manual trannys that are compatible with a 5.0. A couple of my buddies are on the verge of buying an old Torino to fix up as a weekend rod. No...

    I need adv on an exhaust question

    The deal in question referred to an H and that is what I was talking about. As far as fitment, my MAC was no trouble at all. I can't speak for any of their other products but the H was pretty straightforward.

    I need adv on an exhaust question

    Mine is louder than stock but my car is NOT loud. I think that will depend on which flows he has. He needs some advice from the flowmaster guys (plenty of threads on that one too).

    Look at the junk I found in my tailpipes?

    I'll start the argument... Get an off-road H pipe!

    water/methanol injection question

    This product would obviously be most advantageous for the turbo or blown guys. I utilize it simply because after the initial cost (which is relatively low depending upon which brand you choose), water is cheaper than 93 octane gas for the predator tune. Look around at some of the sites such as...

    water/methanol injection question

    Water Injection Facts: Water injection decreases the possibility of detonation by lowering the combustion chamber temperatures and increasing the effective "octane" of the fuel. This allows the engine to run a higher boost and full spark advance without the use of race gas. Additionally, if...

    Please help with mid-pipe removal

    More PB, more patience, and less heavy artillery. Many have experienced the same crap.

    Static in system when engine is running.

    Make sure that your ground wires are always at least as large (if not the next size up) as the corresponding power wires for each component. I am of the opinion that filters only mask a problem instead of solving it. Plus, a bigger ground wire is usually pretty cheap! Good luck.

    New MAC h-pipe, any advice before install

    soctty- I have those exact MIL elims and they work just fine. Order them now because he sends them US Mail and that could take a while depending on where you are! He is in Michigan somewhere and I'm in Mississippi on the Gulf. With a 39 cent stamp, it takes 7 days. They will arrive in a plain...

    New MAC h-pipe, any advice before install

    Search the many threads that address this issue (the new H pipe). You'll find everything you need including what combination of sockets and extensions to use. Lots of PB Blaster too. Have fun with your new language. Don't use the impact wrench that some will advise to do. You'll strip the nuts...

    Have you guys ever heard of a spark plug being blown out of a head?

    Oh, this is great! I had not heard of this before. I'm glad you folks put this one up so when I change plugs, I'll be REALLY careful and torque according to specs. This happened to me once with a '72 Super Beetle back in '85 and quickly ended my foray into the European world. Sold that piece...

    Methanol injection

    You are correct, windshield washer anti-freeze is what I use. I mix it 50/50 with purified water (so as not to clog my injector). I even utilize my windshield washer tank for my injection fluid. You simply "tap" the bottom of the tank and it serves both purposes. It lasts a long time for a...

    Methanol injection

    About the only way you would lose power is if you had too big a nozzle. For instance, on a N/A motor such as ours, you would only use a single-stage unit with a rather small injector nozzle. If you were blown or turbo, then you would possibly use a dual-stage and/or a larger nozzle. The...
