    Coil on Plug Wires

    What do you guys think of replacing the factory coil on plug wires with aftermarket units. The first ones I saw were granatelli (? quality) and were almost $500.00 for the set but they claim on a N/A set-up you pick up 15hp (I am skeptical of those numbers though). But now, I have seen MSD and...

    4:10's installed w/ diablo tune and...

    What makes tire chirping shifts is modification to the valve body (ie shift kit). I also would recommend the j-mod. I have had experiences with a trans-go shift kit on my last mustang that were unfavorable to say the least. Also, be sure that torque modulation is off on your tuner. I think the...

    Got my Mach 1 chin spoiler today.

    Here is a good piece of advice, as I have had two of them now. The first one I got I installed as per the instructions and set in back about a half inch or so from the lip of the front bumper and the ends butted up evenly with the fenderwell. My car wasn't lowered at the time, but I was always...

    4:10's installed w/ diablo tune and...

    I had a 94 GT auto without a converter and just a few bolt-ons. When I got the 4.10s put in and and a custom burnt chip it felt like I added 100hp to the car. With my 04' auto, I already had a lot of bolt-ons and when I got the 4.10s I was expecting the same results I had gotten with the 94 and...

    dyno numbers

    I can't help but wonder if the later year cars, like 03 & 04, made a little more HP? The reason I ask this is the following, when comparing my car to one of my buddy's (01 stang) we noticed the following: 1. my car (04) factory 80mm mass air (earlier ones were smaller) 2. My injectors are...

    School me on nitrous dry kits

    LaserRed: So what is your opinion based on your knowledge of the MAF system and the computers ability to adjust to airflow in reference to a dry kit that sprays a small shot (like 50 to 75hp) thru the MAF sensor?

    School me on nitrous dry kits

    Most of the information I have tried to contribute to this discussion thus far has been based on fact. However, I have a question/idea. Think of the density differnece between air at a high elevation on a hot humid day v/s the air at sea level on a cool non-humid day. If the ECM can correct for...

    School me on nitrous dry kits

    This is true, thats why a traditional dry kit won't work. If it did this discussion would have ended, at least for me, with wet v/s dry.

    180* Thermostat and Fan Settings?

    So I wonder if I should just subtract 12* from all the settings since the stock thermostat is 192* and the aftermarket is 180*?

    School me on nitrous dry kits

    I have to agree that definately makes sense! There is also a company called Harris Speedworks that makes nitrous set-ups and seems to have a large following in the F-body world. They make a dry kit with a WOT switch that sprays thru the MAF sensor that appears to be really nice, and its price is...

    School me on nitrous dry kits

    LaserRed, You seem to be very knowledgable on this subject, what do you think would be a safe amount of N2O to spray thru the MAF sensor with a kit like the "Compucar Bottle in a Bag"?

    180* Thermostat and Fan Settings?

    I am going to install a 180* T-stat in my car and I want to know what I should change the on and off fan settings to with my diablosport? I used the search feature but couldn't find anything on temps, just a lot of posts that say in order to gain any benefit from a cooler t-stat you have to...

    School me on nitrous dry kits

    I started a thread like this a few weeks ago, but really didn't get the feedback I was looking for. This is GREAT! And I also would like to focus on dry kits, but it seems like you always have to make reference to the other options to justify or verify a point. What seems to be a factor with a...

    School me on nitrous dry kits

    I was basically just trying to provide some background on nitrous kits before I got into the specifics of dy kits. I too am interested in a dry kit, but I have yet to find something I'm really comfortable with. One thing I forgot to mention was that at least in theory a direct port kit like the...

    New Best at Darlington Dragway tonight!

    Thats AWESOME!!!!!!!11:nice: 3250 with you in the car is a great race weight too, that makes a huge difference as well. Are you using the SCT software? I think I really need to work on Converter lock-up and shift points as well, but with my DiabloSport Predator I really don't think I can and...

    What to expect from cams?

    I was curious as to any real world numbers before and after cam installs. I am wondering what kind of a difference you guys have found in the 1/4 mile by swapping cams. I am interested in a stage 1 cam (probably from VT) and it seems that on the top end of the rpm range you can expect to pick up...

    School me on nitrous dry kits

    I have been researching this pretty thoroughly too, and here is whatt I've come up with: The first debate always seems to be between wet and dry kits. I'm not really going to get into that too much, I'm just going to provide the conclusion I came up with right or wrong. Here goes, the wet...

    Valve Bodies Question

    Speaking of Ratchet Shifters, does anyone make one for an 04? The only one I have ever seen for our cars is from B&M but they say it only works up to the 2000 model year??? I'm starting to wish I had gotten the SCT tuner too, since the diablosport software doesn't allow you to adjust part...

    Valve Bodies Question

    Well, the cost break down kinda goes like this: 1. j-mod is basically free but you would have to pay someone to do it (labor). I had about $20.00 in parts and about $35.00 in fluid and the guy that did mine charged me $100.00. 2. If you have a handheld tuner, you can adjust the rpm the...

    Best place to buy VT cams?

    Where would I be able to get the best deal on VT stage 1 cams? Also, in the southeast do you guys know of a good place for the install? What would be a fair price to pay for the labor? One last question, best place to get a dyno tune using diablosport software in the southeast?
