    Dyno'd the stang Saturday...

    Nice numbers :D An auto will loose more HP thru the driveline. Mostly due to the torque converter but there are other aspects. Remeber the engines in both will be making very similar power and having more at the wheels won't always mean faster as an auto will be able to deploy the power...

    Post Pics of Your Mustang

    Pic request Any one got any pics of the new Grabber Orange??? Not convinced it looks as good as the now defunct Screaming Yellow Clearcoat but I'm willing to be persuaded... :)

    Procharger help

    A custom tune will always be better than off the shelf "canned". Espcially if you are not running 100% the same spec as the canned tune. I agreeing running high HP and beating on the car is more likely to break stuff sooner. If they truly want a sustanable & reliable ride with 500rwhp then...

    Roushcharged 2006 GT

    Hi there mate, I'm also in the UK. Judging by the pic you posted it looks like the front of Atlantic Sports Cars in Luton? As for the dyno issue there are IMO several possibilities that exist: 1. Incorrect (or expected) dyno readings 2. Something wrong with the Stang 3. A combo of the...

    Torque converter help??

    There are a lot of dodgy torque converter guys out there, go with a reputable firm. Yank have a great name in the industry and have ton's of good info explaining the different ratings and also why and how convertors work. I'd be happy buying from them. An alternative is Fuddle racing, all...

    I'm sorry but you do appear to be giving bad and inaccurate info out, along with a lot of mis information. You said no science, so I won't justify this claim as of yet. However if you wish me to do so, I will comply. :)

    :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :D You do realise that the majority of heat issues with FI are a direct result and by-product of compression? When you compress a gas it builds up heat, on a FI setup you typcially use an intercooler (IC) to reduce this and try and bring the intake air temperatures...

    2009 Mustang article

    That would follow with most line ups, cars usually stay around for 1 or 2 face lifts/updates before being replaced. Doesn't always follow that way. But I would expect a new platform to be used for at least 10 years before any major changes. Could be wrong though... :)

    turbo turbo turbo

    But what do you mean by LAG, the common mistake that it's where in the rpm range boost is made or the real reason of what happens after a STALL period, where the reduction in exhaust gas flow cases the turbo to reduce it's speed halting boost, this combined with any high pressure air trapped...

    Lose The Rear Cats, Lose Torque.

    Yes this is correct. Remember HP = torque x rpm / 5252 So even if your car makes the SAME torque but slightly higher in the rpms you will gain in HP, but it may feel like a loss in the low end, due to a slightly different profile of the curve and the comparitive difference between low end...

    Lose The Rear Cats, Lose Torque.

    Well in many ways your right. But it will only impede flow if it restricts it below the flow requirement. Think of it this way, If a regular road/street with one lane each way can flow 2 cars at a time. Yet all that is needed is the ability to flow 1 car at a time. So when a restriction...

    Lose The Rear Cats, Lose Torque.

    That's not exactly true. Some cats can be a restriction. David Vizard (reknown engineer & author) tells us that we need 2.2cfm for every 1hp generated by the engine to not affect flow. Magnaflow Carsound CATS flow at around 450cfm, so 450 / 2.2 = 205bhp supported flow rate per CAT. But...

    Very close to buying a 6psi non-ic KB

    There must be somewhere for a tune?? There appears to be hundreds of speed shops in the US. And a custom tune is always the best no matter which kit, sure if the KB supplied on is ok then roll with it, but if it's out then just get a custom one done. As it all takes time to send info the KB...

    Pontiac drops the GTO

    Yes but you are obviously biased, so why even bother commenting if you don't care??????????????????? A bit self defeating isn't it.

    How much boost can a stock 5.0 handle?

    12 psi? If memory serves the 89-92 engines have forged internals (or pistons) don't they. What's the CR? I was thinking stock Notch M5 with 3.73 gears and a catback with a 2.2 KB @ 9psi or so (more if possible). What do you guys reckon to that as a simple setup and what sort of rwhp do...

    How much boost can a stock 5.0 handle?

    How well would a 89-92 5.0 handle 9psi of boost (supercharger) on 91 octane fuel?? This would be a stock engine with only a catback.

    ford vs chevy

    Right so what you are really asking is how to make your car quicker? Not how good the old 351 was compared to modern Chevy engines? I'm only asking because they are very different questions and thusly require very different answers. :) Going by your usename I assume you have a 95 GT...

    Pontiac drops the GTO

    It's not suprising really. The Monaro in Europe was dropped at the end of last year (no idea about Aus though). But the platform used for the GTO is quite old and I'm pretty sure is being phased out anyhow. Plus this all goes to prove that the new Camaro and maybe something else are...

    MACH 1 VS. 06

    Yeah but you are comparing your rather heavily modified Mustang to stock or catback only Fbody's. lol.

    how to get 300rwhp out of '02 GT

    Well I don't know, but personally I couldn't stand ripping into a motor to put new cams in to then rebuild and be slightly dissapointed by the dyno numbers. If I was doing it, and after hitting such a target I would have to get a better set of heads of port & polish the stock ones.Maybe add...
