    AFM Powerpipe Problem. Help.

    I think I just solved my own probem after reading another post on here. The instructions they give don't show any pictures and it can be hard to visualize. They say to remove all plumming including the air filter and MAF, where other guys are saying that you don't remove it, let where it was...

    AFM Powerpipe Problem. Help.

    Hey guys, I just laid down $250 for an AFM powerpipe for a 2001 GT with a Vortech supercharger. Tonight I spent a few hours trying to install this thing. What a job. I got the pipe hooked up and looking good. Then I went undeneath the car to reinstall the air filter, MAF sensor, IAC sensor...

    Great purchase! Nice color! Now, if you can afford it, spend $3500 more to strap on a Vortech Blower, and blast those Ferrari's off the road.

    I love Electric Green Metallic. That's the color I picked when I ordered my 2001 GT. I think it stands alone against the common colors, and, draws interest in certain people. As stated above... it is a love it or hate it color. That is very true. I love it, and, I've met a bunch of people...

    simple gear question....

    I don't want to make anyone mad. I'm just stating the facts about what I've done, and, what I've experienced. I've had some gin to drink when I posted above. I don't want to offend anyone.

    simple gear question....

    Hi guys, thanks for the info. I'm probably going to buy the speed calibrator. Today I ordered Ford Motorsport 3:73 gears and the Anderson Ford Motorsport Powerpipe for the supercharger. Those two items should make a difference in the acceleration. To answer the question about how my car...

    simple gear question....

    Thanks. That's what I thought I was going to have to do. Does anyone know the least expensive way to recalibrate it?

    simple gear question....

    I have a 2001GT that I want to add 3:73 gears too. I was just wondering if anything has to be done to make the speedometer read correctly. Please help.

    How fast is my Mach??

    I too was once worried about tapping into my oil pan. However, it was one of the easier steps of installing the blower. It's really no big deal. The tap is designed to throw the metal outward. They tell you to change the oil anyway before starting up the car, and, The oil filter will catch...

    How fast is my Mach??

    I think you might have a chance depending on the conditions. The races I've had were all from a roll. I was in third gear and I pulled away from them. It was a rather slow pull though.

    How fast is my Mach??

    Hey, that's a nice ride that you have. I figure with your mods, your rwhp might be arround 275 or 280 in favorable conditions. Meaning cool air temperature and a non heat-soaked engine. As far as LS1's go, be careful. If they get the jump on you at the wrong time and wrong speed, they will...

    newbie to Ford

    If I were you, I'd look on ebay and try to find a good deal that is close to you. One that you can actually test-drive. The 5.0 is a bit cheaper to build up. They offer strong low to mid-range torque that really slams you into the seat. The 4.6 is a smooth running engine with much better...

    not one, not two but THREE PINK SLIPS!!

    I'm replying to the guys that posted about the exibition of speed tickets. One time, a friend of mine and I both got one of those. We pulled out from a light, and when we hit second gear, he smashed it. So then I had to lay into it. The speed limit was 40 and we never topped it. An...

    What are your thoughts on the 2008 Camaro?

    Yes you are correct. It really does look good. However, it will be heavy, and it will be expensive. There will be $8000 5.0's and 4.6's blowing there doors off at a fraction of the price.

    What are your thoughts on the 2008 Camaro?

    Yea, the Challenger. That will be a joke. Massive horsepower but.... massive weight too. Oh, and let's not forget, ... Massive price tag as well. Is that how the originals sold? I think not.

    What are your thoughts on the 2008 Camaro?

    Wow, that 2009 GT sketch is great! I love it! To be honest, I don't really care what Corvette comes up with. If you have $50,000 to blow on a hobby, good for you. I don't have that money and I don't want to challenge those who do.

    Paint color Question

    LI98GTStang Had the same answer as me. Chrome Yellow. That is what you want! Research it. Look for 96 - 98 Cobra's.

    What are your thoughts on the 2008 Camaro?

    Hi guys. I just wanted to hear your thoughts on this all-new Camaro that will be available in about two years from now. I am interested to hear what you guys think of this car. I have been a Mustang fan all my life. To me, the Mustang is easy to work on, the aftermarket treats us well, and I...

    picked up a new stang

    Also, don't forget, it could have been worse. My luck, the kid would have hit me in the perfect angle to smash the fender, rim, door, and break the door window. All you need is a door. I hope that helps.

    picked up a new stang

    Hello. My friend had a GT vert identical to yours years ago. Back then I had an 87 GT. Everytime I went for a ride in his car, it made me feel like mine was a joke. I loved that smooth 4.6, improved build quality, and open top. The car just felt expensive compared to mine, and it was. It...
