    Car is Down 50hp...Suggestions Welcome

    If you are talking about your runs on the bottle, then there are other factors to consider as well. I also run a Zex nitrous kit and bottle pressure is very important to how the car performs. If your previous ET's were with a fresh bottle and now your running a bottle that 3/4 full, there will...

    i feel like my mileage should be better....

    Id look into the basics such as plugs, wires cap and rotor or fuel filter. 5.0's arent really the best MPG, but 10 MPG seems excessive.

    4.6 Clicks

    OHC motors have camshaft folloers, which are basically lifters. One simple thign to check is the spark plugs. Many, many people including me have had problem with the spark plugs backing out. When this happened to me, my car had a loud tick at idle, sounding exactly like a pushrod lifter tick...

    So a turbo is better than a supercharger?

    That is a bad ass TT kit and it will most likely make more power than any blower kit you will buy. However add that kit up and its gonna be close to $8000 for the stage 2 intercooled kit. For under $5000 you can get the Kenne Belle 1.7 blower kit and that will easily give you 400 rwhp. KB...

    Will the GT500 engine fit in a 99-04?

    The GT500 is also a 5.4 4V. The whole idea in Modular is compatiabilty. The GT500 motor will bolt in place of any 4.6. It would be an extremely tight fit. I wonder if there was something done to the K member of the 05 to fit the 5.4 without a huge scoop. For what Ford will charge for that...

    Really Dumb Question: Car Wash Tips?

    I used to use the California Water blade which worked well however I recently spent $30 on an electric leafblower and I love it !! Its the easiest way Ive ever dried my car off. I use it with a clean towel to wipe down areas that run. Cut my drying time in half !!!

    i found out what that ticking noise was!!!

    Wow, the more I read threads like this the more I relize how lucky I was !! My car ticked for almost a year, it started after I installed a nitrous kit. I thought there might be some valvetrain damage, but found out one of the plugs had backed out and was finger tight. I tightend it up and...
