    DRONING GONE!

    I never thought I'd say this...but I've succumb to glasspacks. I noticed, running open X, that the car had very little of the droning that's driven me insane from BOTH the Flows and the Spintechs. I mean it wasn't just a normal slight drone...it was a BLASTING, BANGING, EARBLEEDING drone...

    Quad shocks...?

    They didn't? Huh...I had always imagined that they did to prevent wheelhop since they were so much lighter...

    2.3 NA Power??

    Yeah, I've been along the same line of thinking..... His plans change on a daily basis though... So one day it's talk of an SVO motor swap....next day it's N/A 2.3 buildup....next day it's take the slightly-used 289 from his old 65 out of his garage and drop it in... Who knows. :rolleyes:

    LOUDEST MUFFLER/NOT DEEP

    I LOVED the sound of my car open-X...but I lost MAJOR power. I wonder how it would run/sound running straight-pipe off the X..but reducing it to 2 or 2 1/4 inch, with turndowns... :shrug:

    Quad shocks...?

    Ok thanks guys...I don't have them and I was just curious what they looked like. I knew what they were for..... My buddy's LX 4 cyl has the quads taken off and when he spins em...whewee, nothing but wheel hop. I imagine without the quads too, when the rears start getting weak, you'll start...

    2.3 NA Power??

    My buddy has a 93 LX vert with an N/A 2.3 liter and stock auto trans.... He's wanting to do an N/A buildup on it because he's an AutoX freak, and for whatever reason, doesn't want to put a more powerful motor in there....and he refuses to do a 5.0 swap...mostly for weight reasons. But...

    tell me what these noises are...

    I'm betting on a minor exhaust leak. Check all your piping, welds, and clamps...

    Quad shocks...?

    Am I the only one who doesn't have these, doesn't know what they are, or what they look like? I'm just curious..been looking to put some Weld rims on the back with some substantially wider tires.......and on all the tire threads I'm seeing, I'm seeing mention of hitting the quad shocks.. I...

    Weld wheel size?

    I just sold my motorcycle, so I'm getting a transmission soon and will need some real traction to turn some good times..... I've got factory pony wheels...16x7, 4 lug. My first question is, what's the lug pattern? 4 x ____? And also...what's the biggest I can run with what backspacing...

    Best supercharger?

    Just to throw this out here... Just because an application makes more peak power doesn't necessarily make it faster. Hell, I'd bet a single turbo app with more peak hp would be SUBSTANTIALLY slower than a sequential twin turbo app with less power because while the single has to have a larger...

    LOUDEST MUFFLER/NOT DEEP

    I'd tell you but I didn't put it in... Previous owner installed it, I've never removed it to be able to read the plate welded onto it. I can say this much...it's a very clear and definited, smooth X....not like most X pipes I see...it's a smoother curve, more true to shape. And across the...

    Best supercharger?

    Something tells me I'll never see 14,500 rpms... Maybe because...I don't know....I have more than a 600cc I-4 motor.. Just maybe.. :D In all seriousness though...I haven't considered turbos for the cost of it. These supers all seem to be cheap, entry-level kits that have been out for a...

    LOUDEST MUFFLER/NOT DEEP

    I've got Spintech Pro Streets. I found their website online...ordered easily over the phone...they came promptly. However, it sounded SWEET for a few weeks...now it just sounds like ass at cruise. Nothing is loose inside....doesn't seem like a baffle broke..but I don't know. The sound...

    Best supercharger?

    I'm on a limited budget but I've been looking around at cheap supers for the Mustang.. Which one do you guys prefer? If you could please explain why...like reliability, maintenance, power gains, etc... Right now I'm leaning heavily towards the Powerdyne because it's on sale at Jegs :D

    Spintech muffler problems?

    I'd have a hell of a hard time getting a video clip because the sound is most prevalent during the droning part of the rpm range, and it's awful on the interstate. Anything over 2300 or so, all the way up to a hair over 3000 rpms just sounds like tin cans and metal banging together. The...

    EEC Tuner

    I for one don't understand how you can possibly run lean. I've got Edelbrock heads, a 75mm MAF, 1.6 rr's, E-303, Cobra intake, yadda yadda, with stock 19 lb/hr injectors.....and I run lean at stock psi (40 with vacuum), but PIG RICH at 45 psi with vacuum. My regulator is adjustable to..well...

    Spintech muffler problems?

    Ok, for the past 2 months or so now, the sound of my Spintech Pro Streets have been getting progressively worse. My exhaust system is: equal-length shorty headers, an off-road X pipe, a pair of Spintech Pro Streets, and angled turndowns. It used to sound muscle-car like..like everyone's...

    VENT : I can't stand this shop sometimes

    All that trouble, and now you're going to SELL IT??? Ohh man! Hey, I've got a 91 Mustang here.....I'll trade ya... It's got a buttload of motor work, just needs a trans. And a stereo. :D :rolleyes:
