    does anyone know of a highflow cat with a carb#?

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but according to "bdcardinal", the only legal mid-pipes and cats in Cali are the stock ones. There's also a $2500 fine for each stock cat that has been removed. Do a search on here on "bdcardinal". He works for the state and has first hand knowledge of the laws.

    Can I get your opinions on this?

    Thanks for the replies. They all seem positive but if I read between the lines I probably should expect some problems with speed bumps and maybe some steep driveways. I'll try to post some before & after pics when I go through with this for others to see the difference. I've found some...

    Can I get your opinions on this?

    I have an '03 GT that has been lowered 1.5" with Eibach Pro Kit springs. I am contemplating adding a Cervini's Stalker front bumper and side skirts. I currently have 17" wheels w/ 245/45-17 tires, but will be getting 18" wheels with 255/35-18 in front and 275/35-18 out back. Do you think I...

    Mac CAI Installation Problems

    My filter is in left to right (horizontal). It probably makes no difference in its functionality if its vertical vs. horizontal or the instructions would have addressed that. Mine was also a PITA to get tightened down. I removed the tire and that gave me better access to the fenderwell and it...

    Mac CAI Installation Problems

    Maybe you should contact MAC directly and have them explain it to you. Maybe they sent you the wrong size filter: http://www.macperformance.com/

    Installing JBA Shorty Headers

    When I installed my JBA shortys I didn't have to remove the K-member (like Redline 01 said). I pretty much followed these instructions: http://www.centuryperformance.com/jbaheaders/install16.htm Like he said, it's not difficult, just time consuming. It helps if you have access to a fully...

    3:73s and couldnt be happier

    Scroll to the bottom of this web page. It talks about the break-in period: http://www.differentials.com/install.html#Gear%20Oil,%20Additive%20and%20Break-In I'm sure lots of guys have been able to drive hard without the new gear break-in process but, all it takes is that one time when...

    3:73s and couldnt be happier

    When I had my gears installed I was told that after the first 15-20 miles, to stop and let the Stang sit for an hour because the oil gets very hot. Then take it easy for the first 500 miles, after which you need to change out the gear oil to remove any metal particles. After that is when you...

    Eibach Prokit users come in...

    I installled mine with the stock shocks/struts and have had zero problems. Much noticeable and improved handling with the Eibachs. Some guys need CC plates, others say they don't. The proof is in your driving. If you start to get uneven and premature tire wear, you need the CC plates to get...

    Importance/ benefits of subframe connectors?

    Make sure the car is on a rack where the entire weight of the car is resting on the wheels when you weld them in. Don't use a rack where the wheels hang down.

    Is there an advantage of changing the exhaust piping from the stock h-pipe?

    Right, they are illegal. In California you can change your catback and still be legal. According to "bdcardinal" (he works for the state of California and posts on here) the only legal midpipes are the stock ones and you can't mess with the catalytic converters. It's a $2500 fine for each...
