    Should I have dealer fix damage done on lot new?

    yeah I'm sorry to beat a dead horse... but dude, you've had the car for just about a year... I'm very surprised you don't have any more damage (unless she's a garage trophy). A dealer will only give you about 2 or 3 days before they say it's you (which to me is generous) as far as the paint...

    Unplugged sensors

    it will totally disable your airbag system i believe. Will you be driving the car during this time? as long as the battery is disconnected and not reconnected until the plug is back in the car will be none the wiser. I'm not sure if the code will reset itself, you may need to take it to a...

    "Phone" Problem

    yeah, if hitting the phone button on the headunit and having the battery off for an extended period of time both don't work i'd go for a new headunit. If you buy an aftermarket, every one is so much better than the stock headunit. prices for doubledin units are also getting very low. those are...

    Few mods I have been working on

    "Officer, i dont understand how you consider this an open container, the reservoir cap is on!" why not jamesbond it up a bit, reroute it so the hoses are at the rear wheels shooting out to water the rear tires of anybody you may be racing.

    Good Exhaust Shop

    see if downs ford would? not all places will install if you don't buy from them, but i'd try them. This thread may do better in the regional threads though

    Change to throttle by wire

    yup + 1 for getting a tune. i Hated the feel of my car when i got it, i was used to the cable from my 95 GT. I got a diablosport predator, and instantly it felt great.

    Greenway Ford service drove my car over 200 miles!

    Not all dealerships are evil you know. You could show a pinch of respect for them, especially now when so many dealership employees are out work and so many more are on the verge of closing

    Agent 47 Vortex Generators

    Engine Failsafe Mode

    mine did it once, i used my tuner to pull the code, and it was throttle position stuck open. I hear replacement of throttle body is usually necessary, but that was 3 months ago and i've been fine since then.

    painting stock 18" polished bullitt wheels..

    I can't remember if they're clearcoated, but i would assume they are. If that's the case, just scuff them with something (Scotchbrite scuffpads [gray pad]) would be the best. When you scuff, scuff real well to make sure the shiny is gone especially in corners and cracks. Don't go too hard on...

    Tips for running at the track?

    icing the intake is just that, tossing a bag of ice on it to cool it all down. colder air = more dense = more power. but, its your first time, just show up and race the car and have fun. don't go crazy on stuff like icing and crazy weight reduction stuff, you'll just distract yourself from...
