    what is powershifting?

    Hhmm.. let me see if I can try and figure out what the hell you are saying. Your saying you dont beat the hell out of your car but you shift it without the clutch sometimes ?? 'engine time' ?? Still tryin to figure that one out. Are you talking about RPM's ?? Thats what most, 'normal'...

    I love TIVO !!!!!

    I used my TiVo without a phoneline for over a year. The bad part was there isnt a way to download the Program Guide without a phone connection. This is only a minor pain since you can manually record any program you wean tif you know what time its on. BTW, Im refering to my original series 1...

    Got smoked!

    Nitrous ?? For $500 or a little more you can get an adjustable kit and have extra power whenever you want it. Start with a 75 shot to get used to it, the upgrade your plugs and get a tune and go bigger.

    05 Heads

    There is no doubt the head will physically bolt on. Thats the ideal behind modular, everything is compatiable. You wouldnt be able to use the varable cam timing as that is all in the computer, you'd have to lock the cams in. Also the motion control valve would have to go. If you are going with...

    Man I will never forgive dodge and there sub companies thats in america.

    I dont think Chrysler making any mistakes right now. The HEMI engine is one of the reasons they are gaining some of the market share GM and Ford are losing. A big V8 thats makes great power and gets decent economy with its variable displacement system. DC is about the only American car...

    Man I will never forgive dodge and there sub companies thats in america.

    People need to understand the Chrysler brought back the name, not the car. If this car was called something other than the Charger I think people wouldnt have much to say. Personally, I really like the car and when you look at its class competion I think its the most desirable. Id rather...

    I love TIVO !!!!!

    I bought TiVo when it first came out. I have no patience and its screwed me twice, first with TiVo then with my iPOD. I absoultely love both products and use them everyday, but if I had only waited I could have had the newest one's with alot more features for alot less money !! Oh well, it...

    Build a 99, or build an 03

    Well if thats what you are looking for then an 03/04 sounds like what you want. Throw a smaller pulley an exhaust, cold air and a tune and you will have a monster on your hands. I wouldnt worry to much about reliabilty, I know a guy who runs low 11's in his 03 with a pullied and ported stock...

    what is powershifting?

    So you bought a V8 Mustang for its fuel economy and reliabilty ?? I sure didnt. Ive bought V8 Mustangs because I knew they were quick and with the right parts they could be even faster. Many years ago I beat a H/C/I 5.0 vert with my stock powershifted 5.0 from that point on I knew how...

    what is powershifting?

    Almost any and every modification you make to your Mustang is to make it perform better. Any time you add a performance mod you increase the chance of breaking something. 3.73's for example turns your engine RPM's higher at all speeds thus cause more wear and tear on your motor. Im not...

    what is powershifting?

    Some old school guys call that powershifting I guess. I havent tried that before, atleast not in my car...lol Powershifting isnt hard to do just tough to master. Usually when I do it RPM's wont jump anymore than 500 before I get it in the next gear. The sound of the motor alone is enough...

    Build a 99, or build an 03

    Im in a similar dilema except I have a 99 GT. An 03/04 Cobra is exactly what I want but by the time you figure in the higher payment, higher insurance plus the money you'll most likely lose on your trade in, it almost seems like a better idea to build the car you already have. But then I hear...

    what is powershifting?

    1st. Dont know who you are addressing but none of my cars have ever been broken down on the side of the road or track. 2nd. Your little Viper story does prove that one driver is better than the other, even if they both suck. 3rd. The T45 trans is not much stronger than a T5, thats the...

    Shop can't fix my car...what should I do?

    I didnt think you need that tool to do a fuel filter. Ive replaced mine before and it just pulled apart ??

    what is powershifting?

    I get such a laugh out of people who are afraid to drive there cars hard. My current 99 GT has a stock T45, a Spec Stage 1 clutch and 4.10's. I drive the car hard especailly at the strip. Id guess I have over 50 passes, powershifted every single time and have yet to have any transmission...

    Shop can't fix my car...what should I do?

    I personally think MIL Elimanators are junk. I had two different sets that wouldnt work for me and two of my friends bought some and still have a check engine light on. I bought a chip to turn off the CEL. Sounds like you should do the same and get a new TPS.

    Anyone have a LOT of miles on a 03 Cobra? Like 100,000?

    If you could get it cheap enough, go for it !! For instance, if its around $18,000, you'd score a complete Cobra and probably a decent payment, then do some mild mods and save up for a bottom end rebuild. I saw a 03 with 64k miles for $21,000 this time last year, too bad I was broke as a joke.
