    Anybody have the new Steeda water pump

    Exactly what I was thinking. I would think the limiting factor would be more the radiator than anything else :shrug:

    is it ok for a blower car to sit for a while?

    I've had my car sitting for a month, did a few quick cranks before starting up and everything is still all good.....

    Coil Replacement.

    Too many miles to start modding?

    Why? There is no reason not to mod it unless the car isn't running right. Check the cylinders for proper compression? I'd say you are all good to go, and I would recommend getting the kit from MPH. My car is pushing 66k miles (20 or so that have been blown) and still going strong :flag:

    Vortech S trim leaking at oil feed nozzle

    Exactly what I did...didn't even bother putting the one that came with the kit on, and just upgraded right away.

    The wonders of a new IAC valve.

    Is it a cold start, warm start, doesn't matter? Any engine mods? I was thinking maybe a battery but since you said the starter spins freely then hmmm...... Same tank of gas since this started happening or has it been through a few? I'm trying to go through the "obvious" list first....

    $$GAS$$

    Why should we feel lucky? Most of that is taxes which causes the higher prices. I drive about 29k miles a year (luckily only about 8k of that is on the Mustang) so gas prices going up do suck, but there isn't anything I can do about it. All that means is that I gotta pack my lunch for that...

    The wonders of a new IAC valve.

    When was the last time you checked the plugs? When was the fuel filter last changed? Is the starter still torquing the engine like normal when trying to start or is it slower? Little bit better description of the problem could help....

    Some new pics of the stang with teh new black bullits ,will be more later on!!

    Be careful with curbs as to those tires provide 0 protection. Looks pretty good though, and make sure to check the rear tire pressure often.

    02gt vs. 96 Cobra

    Pullies do give a solid gain and are easy enough to do with a little patience.

    Revving at other stangs

    I've always taken it as a sign of racing b/c 90% of the time, immediately after the rev, they are holding rpms.....

    spining the vortech faster with alum.

    4.10's are a love it/hate it type thing for blower cars. Most peeps go with 3.73's b/c of the rpm issue at the track. Alum. d/s would help out and is a must with aftermarket gears anyways. Alum. flywheel I'd save my money on, and gears is a personal preference. Centri blowers as a whole...

    New Headlights.....*sigh*

    Well thanks for giving the heads up about that....to bad there always has to be a guinea pig. Hopefully they can get you a properly fitting set or your money back...unless they try to pull the whole you didn't install them right thing.

    Is this normal, or tweaked? DD wheel offset...

    Mine sits flush, but that's kinda scary if there is that much of a manuf. tolerance.....

    Free Home Entertainment scam

    Over here they stalk out ATM's and approach people then.... Nothing but junk, and it's always the same peeps doing it.....

    02gt vs. 96 Cobra

    When I just had a catback and pullies, I had no problems with 96-98 Cobra's. I wasn't pulling them by much but I was still walking away from them. It really depends on the driver though, Cobra's are just like the 2v's in which they start dropping off pretty hard towards redline, so if that's...

    Got the kooks installed... (not 56k friendly)

    Eh, you set-up is pretty tame ;) . Now get rid of the huge restriction on the intake side (TB, Plenum at the least), get a tune and you'll see a big difference. My guess is you are probably running a bit lean right now... Have fun with your new set up!

    Anybody Sell Just a Clay Bar?

    Zaino just sells bars. I usually just get whatever they have at AutoZone or whatnot and pretty much use all of the lubricate in one session. Better to have too much than not enough..........

    Tomorrow she shines!

    B/c I've never used a PC nor seen a difference vs. a car that has one, can't see how much better it could be, but they always say ignorance is bliss :D . I did everything in one day, Initial wash/dry Claybar Second Wash/dry ZPC 3rd Wash/dry 3 coats of Z5 with the Z6 in between 1...
