    Uhh....I'm an idiot.

    Because they aren't screws, they're "push pins". You just have to yank them out as hard as you can.

    2v 5.4

    Not really worth it IMO. You don't get much more HP (although the TQ increase is nice). If you were going to swap the 4.6 for a 5.4, I'd make sure it was a DOHC 5.4

    Plastic intake= garbage:mad:

    But I AM an engineer and can tell you that to sole reasoning behind using a plastic intake was cost. The 01 Bullitt's used a MUCH more efficient metal intake. Why wasn't that implemented on all 99-04 GT's? Because of cost.

    my car vs 04 mazda rx8

    LOL the responses in this thread did q pretty good job on making me laugh. The OP is asking how his car would do in a race against an RX8 and everyone goes of in completely different tangents. "But they're so fun to drive", "he'll beat you on a winding mountain road", "blah blah blah"...

    what is better??

    Don't waste your money on short tube headers. They do absolutely NOTHING. The mid-pipe is subjective. X's give a higher-toned scream while H's give a lower-toned growl. It depends on what you prefer.

    exhaust opinions

    There's a reason why a lot of the cars go for the same sound.....it's because they sound fkn awesome. Why be different if it means you sound like **** (not saying yours does)?

    4.10 or 4.30 Gears

    There's a thread in Talk about 4.30's in a 2V. Personally, I think 4.30's are too much gear for a DD street car. I enjoy the occasional highway race (IN MEXICO OF COURSE) and Im afraid that 4.30's would kill my top-end too much. Im getting some 4.10's next month.

    exhaust opinions

    MAC H or Prochamber (especially if you already have the Flowpaths). I have stock manifolds, stock H, and Flowmaster's. I have an MAC O/R H and flowpaths ordered and on the way. Cant beat that as far as sound goes IMO.

    whats the biggest rear tire that will fit on an 03 gt?

    There was a guy on svtperformance a few years ago who threw some 345 Viper tires onto his 03 Cobra. He just had to shave a few IRS bolts a bit to clear them from the tires. Needless to say that they look absolutely insanely killer!

    COP Blowing....Trouble Shooting Advice...

    Oh great. I also experience that slight hesitation around 1500 and heard of the COP problem. It sounds like a pain in the ass :(

    MAC H-pipe question

    Im looking to purchase an MAC H-pipe and have come down to MACPerformance.com and latemodelrestoration.com to buy it from. However, the two website have two different pictures of what should be the same product. What's the difference here? MACPerformance.com Latemodelrestoration.com

    buying GT?

    The 05 model years (oldest of the S197 body) are still going for $10-15K+ You're looking at around $18K for a GOOD S197. Just out of curiousity, are you 100% dead-set on the S197? There isn't THAT much of a difference power-wise between 99-04 GT's and S197 GT's. A few hundred dollars and...

    I need some help

    I'd love to but I just can't afford it. The small difference in sound doesn't make up for the big difference in price :shrug:

    I need some help

    I am a mere click away from ordering an O/R mid-pipe. However, I'm just not 100% sure on which one to purchase. UPR O/R X -or- MAC O/R H I've heard a few comments stating that an O/R X sounds like ass paired with Flowmasters. Agree? Disagree? Manifolds: stock catback: flowmaster...

    Went to the dyno today. Video

    Why did you ditch the BBK O/R X and Magnaflows for the Prochamber and SLP's?
