    Please give me comments on these wheels stangnet!

    I feel the same way about the DD wheels. I think I'm going to go with the same size wheel all around. I think it will be easier when you have the tires balanced and rotated. If money grew on trees than I would consider going with larger wheels on the back. I'm looking at the chrome FR500's...

    What would you do?

    You handled the situation the right way. That's how I would have done it. I'm glad you got your bike back. Hopefully, they won't do anything like this again. Pearl02.

    No speedometer after SpeedCal install

    When I installed the speedcal my speedo didn't work either. Turned out that the fuse to the cig lighter was blown. I replaced the fuse and I works now. Did you check the fuse to the cig lighter? Pearl02.

    Magnaflow Catback, Magnapack or not?

    I love my Maganflow catback system. I also have a MRT catted h-pipe. It has a nice sounding low rumble. If you want it louder, than I suggest you go with the Magnapacks. I think mine is loud enough the way it sounds. It's perfect for me. Pearl02.

    SCT X-Cal 2 Global Spark?

    I'm trying to understand a little better about the X-cal 2. I notice that there is a "global spark" adjustment. What's the difference between global spark and adjusting the timing between any given rpm range? I can add or subtract timing between 0-2000, 2000-4000, and 4000 to 6000 rpms. I...

    just to clear something up

    Winter98GT. I have always respected your knowledge and ability on this board. I read this post and I didn't like it. I thought that this thread was started somewhere else. Your right, you have contributed more than I have on this board. But, I'm not going to start a bs war with anyone here...

    chipped mustang key from Wallmart $50

    I just had a second key made for my car today. I've only had one key for yrs now. For some reason, I have a bad feeling that I might misplace my key. Anyway, I had the key made at Bob Allen Ford here in KC. It took about 40 minutes for the key to be cut and programmed. This had to be done...

    just to clear something up

    I didn't see anything wrong with those runs. For just learning to drive that monster you did a hell of a job. That's a much better job than I did at the track. The guy who made the post is a A-hole. It's amazing the power we think we have setting behind our computers. I hope you get a...

    broken crankpulley need help

    How the hell did that happen? Did you use one of those crank pullers that "hook" onto the crank? Just wondering. Pearl02.

    2v 5.4

    Sorry if I was wrong about the cam profiles. I was just going off of what someone else told me. The owner of the V10 Stang did tell me he needed a better performing cam. Pearl02.

    2v 5.4

    I'm not surprised. The cam profiles are different for the truck. It's designed for low end torque which is what a truck needs to pull and haul. It's not designed to spin up to 6 grand. The owner of a local Mustang tuning place here in KC transplanted a V10 from a F250 or 350 into his 97...

    Spark Plugs, Beam Torque Wrench?

    There's nothing wrong with that type of torque wrench. I own the beam type and the "clicker" style. On the "beam" type the handle will pivot from side to side. As you begain to use the torque wrench, try to keep the squared up in the middle and watch the beam pointer. You'll see what I mean...

    changing gauges/odometer?

    I have a set of stock gauges out of my 02GT. I bought 01 Bullitt style gauges a couple of yrs ago. There's a white curcuit board that sits behind the gauge head. All you have to do is flip flop the boards. The car will start and milage will be the same. This is what I did when I switch...

    Pinging on SCT tunes

    Agreed. Batteries are strange beast. They cab go at any time. Summer months are hard on batteries. I see you have a 03 and that makes your battery 6yrs old if you haven't changed it out earlier. 6yrs is damn good life to get out of a battery. I wouldn't be afraid of the tuner. I've...

    Remote Oil Filter Relocation Kits

    Kilgore does have a good point. I work for a petroluem pipeline company. When we install new pipes, we try have install piping with a little "bends" as possible. We do have monster horsepower pumps to over come bends but we are also trying to reduce pump wear. Most of our existing piping is...

    Pinging on SCT tunes

    I'm glad it's working out for you. I just responed to your last post about hanging rpm's. The key is to find a good tuner. I had my car dyno tuned by a local shop here in KC. I had problems with the tune. The guy did try to make it right but I wasn't satisfied with the results. I started...

    I have 3 mail order tunes a got from Doug at Bamachips and I don't have a problem with hanging rpms. The tunes I got from him are working great. Pearl02.
