    anyone running spintech mufflers

    If you want tailpipes, than get bassani's for sure. I got the bx kit for $450. When I first got it, I almost **** myself. The quality of everything especially the polish on the tailpipes was awesome. Plus they are perfect size (3") and stainless. You know whats funny? My buddy is selling...

    How should I get financing for a new car I found?

    Actually they look at it badly at a certain point, b/c it is potential for you to get in debt in a hurry if you are not smart. There is alot more that goes into it and I'm no expert. Some of it is magic in my opinion. haha good luck though!

    331 Turbo vs 408

    In my ideal set-up, a 408 would not make even close to enough power (typically). But a dart 331 with a turbo, now we're talking. The 331 turbo would be quite a bit more money, but way more power, so I guess it depends on you. As for weight, why is everyone saying the 408 set-up would be...

    How should I get financing for a new car I found?

    I would recommend not getting a loan. I can't believe no one has mentioned this. Don't take it personal, but putting a car that is 7-8k on a card is just stupid. It is also crazy with the amount of open credit you have. I'm sure your credit score would be alot higher if you were to get rid...

    Good motor build budget?

    When I was 19 I did gt40P's, mac headers, TF stage 1 cam, street heat intake, and a FPR. That is it. I got everything used, my car ran great without any tune and ran a 13.1 at 106mph. That is better than alot of guys that spent 3-4k on a tuned TF set-up. Plus the more stock parts you have...

    One step closer to the 10's (PICS)

    Yeah, I don't know if maybe my tach is off a bit or what, but from the research I have done, I should have been good with 3.55's for a while, but I could seriously see the car start to cut out at about 125mph as it would hit the limiter. Either way, I know I'm fine now and have more room to...

    One step closer to the 10's (PICS)

    What are you talking about?? I posted up top what I'm seeing with the 3.27's. The 3.55 were a little less mph in each gear. Something like 55-60 in 2nd and 125-127 in 4th etc.. All just at 6k.

    One step closer to the 10's (PICS)

    I know, it is weird changing gears like that. I have had 3.08's, 4.10's, 3.55's and now 3.27's. I never would have thought that I would max 3.55's out, but I pretty much was. So far I like the feel of the 3.27's and now I can get more mph in 4th.

    Need Input on Front Tire Diameter.

    Whatever you do, do not put a spacer on. That would look horrible. Can't you borrow a wheel from someone to try?? my 275's don't rub one bit with supersports.

    I want Ideas on this suspension set up

    I got stock mach 1 shocks and struts from ford for about $180. I love them and would still would not pay extra for bilsteins. I also have subframes, supersports, and mm cc plates.

    One step closer to the 10's (PICS)

    I finally got some 31 splines and associated parts along with a ds safety loop. One step closer to being able to safely run slicks. I went with strange c-clip axles and a cobra differential. Lakewood loop. I also went from 3.55's to 2.27's so I can get some more rpm in fourth. Trapping...

    Need Input on Front Tire Diameter.

    Just for reference, mine don't rub and my car is a little lower than average with H&R supersports.

    What do you think of this car?

    Unless the paint was flawless, which it is probably not, that is a rip off.

    Need Input on Front Tire Diameter.

    Get 275/40 and call it a day. Looks better. Handles better. Same diameter. Just pulls a little more.
