    Strength of a 4R70W transmission?

    There are way to many positive threads about this transmission so i'll add one: My transmission completely went at 50,000 miles (while i still owed 10,000 on the car). But the guy at the tranny shop says that either it was an old transmission that was swapped in, guy before rolled back the...

    who is using 5w-20 and who is using 5w30?

    5w20 nonsynthetic castrol... why... because synthetic is expensive, and my car has never had synthetic and switching is bad for some reason.

    Making a Mustang sound like a Ferrari

    i did that in my z34... only with a mustang exhaust clip, and later a corvette exhaust clip... i had to drown out the sound of 4 cams and 24 valves ticking (sure the redline is set to 7000 but i figured it was more of a guideline than a set rule)

    Making a Mustang sound like a Ferrari

    My advice, buy a fiero... remove pos engine thats in there... go find a Z34, Euro or Cutlass with the 3.4DOHC (my old car :)), buy a ferrari muffler... sounds EXACTLY like a Ferrari 355. (3.4dohc or 3.4tdc is 210hp in stock tune, originally made 280 at the factory (supposedly), so theirs alot...

    new gears for automatic

    Gears dont increase power :P... I got a set of richmond gears priced for me since apparently they're the only gears any of the speed shops here will order... 500 taxes in shipped to my door. I dont think im down for that though. The handheld tuner thing makes it too expensive for me to do...

    Mach 460 sucks! newspeakers or new system?

    The only thing the base 460 system lacks is cleaner treble and of course bass... like i said droping in some subs cures the problem of bass, and for me a new headunit helped with the treble enough that i can enjoy it. just as well as my full systems.

    Mach 460 sucks! newspeakers or new system?

    you sir are on crack. I've had several Sound quality sound systems and 2 SPL systems. The mach system is great for rock with some added real bass. I added two concept CEX-10's(450 RMS each, dvc) and the CD-810 amp(i tested it, it puts out 1284 watts RMS)... sounds great, actually, Ive been...

    Removing the Intake silencer...

    Alright all i have to say is its worth it haha. I revved it while under the hood and it hurt my ears. and then driving at WOT once it hits the higher rpms it popped my passengers ears. Zero performance gains i would say, but makes the car louder, which is the more important thing i think...

    Removing the Intake silencer...

    Ok so i took it out, but how can this possibly add hp, now instead of sucking cold air from the fender im sucking engine air... i dont see how its a silencer either, it looks more like a snorkel to suck cold air then something to silence the intake. I have a K&N as well so dont tell me it only...

    http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33582&item=7988186691 Canuck motorsports??? They're located in Canada (Vancouver, BC) which is great for me, because its like 8 hours away and i wouldn't be paying 300 dollars in border fee's, shipping, customs etc. Lower the car 2.0"...

    GTO or STANG GT Mind Made Up

    personally i think you made a very wrong choice, but thats just me. GTO = the ****, amazing power, sleek looks (as opposed to the mustangs ... sweet looks i guess), 6 spd, bigger displacement, decent mileage, much more comfy interior.

    Why can stock Ls1's beat the GT - a small insight for noobs to performance cars

    99-04 gt's can barely hang with the damn 95-97 LT1 trans ams... let alone the Ls1's... the LS1 was handed down to mankind from god. the LS6 and LS7 were handed down by satan himself.

    Would you like a more powerful GT? Would you sacrfice the V8 engine for it?

    I didn't mean that to be an insult to german cars at all. I nearly bought a 328i instead of the stang. I believe american manufacturers can learn alot from german and british engineering. Im just saying that because an m3 does roast most new cars, and still gets good mileage, but do i think...

    Would you like a more powerful GT? Would you sacrfice the V8 engine for it?

    Ya quit hating yo. give yourself a stranger. Now for my two cents. 1) Mustangs shouldn't have anything BUT a v8 (thats my opinion) 2) I love roasting your 65,000 bmw with my 10,000 dollar '68 cougar, when they laugh at me for having to fill the 428 up after every race, i simply blow...
