    06 gt mutha thumpr cam idle problems help!

    I believe a tune is quite important for cams. I think you'll be fine once you get the tune.

    Completely depends on the dealer. Some with allow boltons and some won't. Just know before hand. Taking the CAI out and changing the tune should take 10-15 minutes.

    You're going to sell tons of your interior pieces. The look outstanding and much better than any stick on stuff. It looks factory.

    Aftermarket Clutch/Flywheel SERIOUS shiftin/drivability problems..Any1 else have/had?

    I had the problem stock (though it was a grind and not a complete lock-out). The torque limiters and Hurst shifter took it away. Installed a new clutch with a new OEM slave cylinder and new flywheel, and now I'm locked out over 5000 RPMs from first to second. I'm sure it the 2nd gear synchro, I...

    Not Your Average 2011 Mustang GT Review…

    I read through most of it. Couple of things.. About the cupholder.. I don't know about the 2010+, but on the 2005-2009, there was a false bottom in the rear cupholder. You could pull that out and fit much larger/taller drinks in the cupholder. Does yours have one that you might not have...

    Shift knob question

    Did your shift ball come with a boot collar? If not, you're going to need to order one or fashion something, otherwise your booth will look funny.

    Anyone out there done a gear change themselves?

    Glad you were able to get it done without trouble. S197's are tricky. The guy that did my 05 had done over 100 fox bodies and still had trouble getting it set right. I've heard similar stories elsewhere.

    Audio Gurus inside!!! Need help!

    You can buy a new terminal and banana plugs, but it's probably easiest to buy a new terminal with the standard spring loaded clips.

    1 Set of JBA Longtubes/H-pipe/Hardware left SAVE ONLY $600!!

    Do not buy headers from this guy's friend. They're not JBA. They're cheap knock-offs and he will take a month to send them to you.

    How much does ethanol gas effect your tunes?

    Doesn't change it enough to harm it. And Brenspeed, being in the heartland, definitely takes that into consideration. You do not need to run a higher octane. The difference in MPG is also usually less than 1 MPG.

    Upper and Lower Grille for 2006 GT

    That's the C500 front end made by Cervinis. It does exactly what you're talking about. That's about the only way you'll get the fogs in the lower grill, unless you go with different fog lights and some ingenuity. http://www.cervinis.com/

    O/r h-pipe

    Those are for SN95's. It sounds like you've found what you wanted. I would definitely go with the Pypes mid-pipe. The other two are aluminized mild steel. They'll rust out quickly. The Pypes is T409 steel and will last a long time.

    pypes catback mid muffler

    First, I'll state the obvious, that you should have asked (or googled) before placing your order. A catback replaces everything *behind* the cats. It'll replace the pipes that go over the axle, mufflers, and tips. As for loudness, I would put the Pypes MMS between 8 and 9 compared to other...

    Tire Pressure Monitors, Are they needed?

    I agree. I usually check my tires, too, but I've had them help me out on more than one occaision. I believe the bands are about $30 for a whole set. So it'll cost you $30 for the bands, plus a few extra bucks to have the old wheels/tires disassembled.

    What mod to do next? Bang of for buck!

    Then a stiffer suspension may actually be what you're looking for. Try some lower control arms first. They help with wheel hop.

    help please!!!! my car keep dying when i come to a stop

    Sounds like the infamous water leak near the SJB. Pull off the panel on the passengers side in front of the door, where you smart junction box is. Also check the carpet around there. Look for signs of water damage, or even dampness..

    What mod to do next? Bang of for buck!

    The Eibach Pro-Kit gives a nice stance and maintains a good ride quality. I also didn't have any clearance issues with it until I added the chin spoiler. If you're going for performance, I'd definitely hit the suspension and tires next. Lower control arms with poly bushings will get rid of your...

    Pypes not Flowmaster.

    For the sound you want, you definitely don't want a X pipe. They're more raspy and euro sounding, not throaty and rumbly like you want. They also will make your mufflers drone terribly.
