    Cracking under heavier load

    :lol: I seafoamed not too long ago, maybe 6 or 7 months. I cleaned my maf and bought some octane booster/cleaner at walmart...It was still pinging even though it's night and cooler but only when I slammed the gas pedal and for a split second. :nonono: Gabe

    Cracking under heavier load

    Well, usually chevron, exxon, or shell always 93 octane. The tune is rated at 91 I thought maybe that was causing it to ping if the car is not liking some of the settings...I might try to lose the tune and see how that works and then change some of the parameters, but I haven't messed with it...

    Cracking under heavier load

    I've noticed this for a while and it's starting to bother me so I thought I'd put a post in for opinions/suggestions. Whenever I gas it hard in 3rd, 4th of 5th w/ or w/o ac on, I hear a rattling sound. Sometimes it lasts just a second, some others it goes on for a little longer and goes away...

    Cat's > Off road??

    That all makes a lot of sense. I'm gona switch back to the off road pipe tomorrow. I'd rather keep the off road pipe if the power dif. is the same...I'll miss being able to hear my stereo but I didn't get a mustang for that reason...Thanks for the input! Gabe

    Cat's > Off road??

    lol I passed just fine but I live in TX...I know other states like CA are a bigger pain to pass. The guy honked the horn, drove it for 1 min, said something about my headlights being blacked out and that was it...didn't look under the car so I switched for nothing.

    Cat's > Off road??

    I just switched back to my catted BBK shorty h yesterday to pass inspections. I knew it wasn't going to sound as good...but it feels like I have more power. It was cooler yesterday because of storms so I figured that might have been it but today it's extremely hot and it still feels good. Is...

    header nut question

    I installed BBK lt's about a month ago and there was a nut I couldn't put onto the passenger side header that is closest to where the passenger sits. We had to keep the stock bolt that sticks out from the stock manifold for that perticular one because we couldn't get a locking bolt in that...

    Just wondering about tires

    I just ordered some new rims 17x9 (2003 cobra, black) and 255/40WR-17 BFGoodrich g-Force Sport for the front and 275/40WR-17 BFGoodrich g-Force Sport for the rear. I was just wondering if I will have any spedometer issues as far as it being off a little? Gabe

    Steering noise is driving me nuts

    I installed Ford Racing C springs the other day and it all went well. Now I have a loud squeaking/rubbing noise coming from the passenger side wheel well. I took the wheel off today and checked to see if the dust guard was rubbing on anything but it looked ok (that happened when I did LT...

    SCT II question

    Hmm, well that's good I just have to figure out how to make that feature work then. I thought I had to pay extra when I ordered it but I guess that was to have it programmed into my custom tune. Is it pretty easy to figure out? I'm at work right now but I'll try it this afternoon

    SCT II question

    I've got a service engine soon light on ever since I installed LT's and the offroad shorty h pipe. I have a programmer but is there a specific place that I need to send it in to to put that feature in? is that cheaper than getting MIL eliminators?

    HELP!!!! window won't go back up :-(

    I installed a shorty off road h-pipe to go along with the LT's and after it was all done and the car was lowered back onto the ground, my right side window won't go back up! This has never happened before. I can hear something clicking when I press the button but there is no movement in the...

    off road/catted bbk shorty h

    I have a catted bbk h pipe hooked up to my bbk lt's at the moment. I love the sound but I'm wondering if it would be worth it to switch over to off an off road h since they are not that expensive. I would simply switch back over to the catted pipe when I need to do the yearly state inspection...

    Hail damage!!!

    Well, 2 weeks away from owning my first garage I got a big enough storm that I have some very minor hail damage :nonono: I went to a paintless dent repair place and they said it would cost 960 bucks! Another guy told me under 500, so I think I'm getting screwed. My car is flawless in terms of...

    BBK LT's finally on, now some concerns

    4 times in 2 weeks? ouch :( Well I was able to get the dip stick tube bolted onto the engine, had to go to home depot because I couldn't find the bolt for it anymore... I'm thinking my next mod is probably going to be a catback like the SLP one. As far as HP though, would I be better off just...

    BBK LT's finally on, now some concerns

    Hmm I looked up some info on these crow's foot wrenches and it does look like that would make things a lot easier as far as tightening up the headers. I'll definetly get back under there in a couple of weeks when I get some time, I'm in the process of moving and I will have my first garage ever...
