    Any cowl induction Hoods for the '05 mustang?

    Does the Steeda hood do anything except look good? I think I posted almost this same question on Thursday when I asked about hoods that actually let in air. There was a post before the crash where someone had photos of their hood, including the underside, which showed a connection to the CAI...

    Hoods with real air intake

    Before the crash there was a thread with pics showing the underside of someone's hood with the hole and integral air passage from the scoop. Does anyone know whose hood that was? Perhaps someone could repost the pics? I have a chance to buy a Steeda hood [someone ordered the hood, didn't...

    What oil viscosity is everyone using? [If you've changed it yet, of course]

    Hey, I use 10w-30 every 3k in my 164k 99 Escort ZX2, and it still comes out clean, so I know that going a little thicker doesn't hurt anything there. I was simply curious what people are using. I'd love to hear from someone who is actually racing the car regularly. Hopefully as rebuilds...

    What oil viscosity is everyone using? [If you've changed it yet, of course]

    I've only changed mine once and put the 5w-20 in, which seems like water. I know that some manufacturers insist on thinner oil to improve mileage and power, but I would think with our engine's windage tray that would be less of a problem. I am worried about the long-term with such a thin...

    Rickman, What is the "film"? I asked in the old thread and tried to send you an email as well. I'd like to try this on my lime GT as I think the yellow will look good on the green car... Mike Elia

    Yellow Fogs (easy upgrade)

    Back to the yellow fog light thread... I'd like to try this on my lime GT. What exactly is this "vinyl film"? Is it a self-adhesive material or is it some kind of sheet goods thick enough to friction fit in there? Or one of those static-stick sheets? I went to Michaels craft store and...

    How do you disable Event Data Recording? New Computer?

    So does anyone know anything constructive? [or destructive?] So, if this has been discussed for 3-months, then what was the consensus? Is this a part of the "regular" diagonistics? Is there some way to separate recordings? I mean, there must be a steering sensor that can be disconnected...

    How do you disable Event Data Recording? New Computer?

    And how do I find this discussion "again"? I see exactly two other threads on this when I run a search. One was before the cars were even available, and the other seems to be about a blown engine. Neither has ANY information or input. I was hoping a vendor or computer guru might chime...

    Question for the pros

    How and why does this question need "pros"? Waste of time.

    How do you disable Event Data Recording? New Computer?

    Call me paranoid, but in looking at page 7 of the Owner's Guide, I see that not only does the car's "black box" record speed, but also the steering wheel position and a bunch of other things. It would appear to me that your insurance company and /or law enforcement could easily use this against...
