    CE Light came on tonight

    Did it say something along the lines of Catalyst Effieciency Below Threshold (I think it's P0420 and 421)? I'd bet it was from the H pipe. Sometimes it takes 50-100 miles before the cat monitor will run and turn on the MIL. I had my X on for a week before the light came on. If that is the...

    Tried to change my spark plugs!?!

    you could probably fish the piece out fairly easily with a magnet if it did fall in.

    400 HP AT THE WHEELS ALL MOTOR,"YES"!!

    I agree that a big part of it is displacement. The engine design is also awesome too though as older 350ish CI engines can't touch it and the amount of power you can make with one is more than proportionate to it's increased displacement. But the lack of displacement is the biggest problem...

    Z Max Engine Formula... Fact or Fiction?

    yeah, I'd have to agree with him. I'm gonna go ahead and call that fiction, just like 99% of the crap that dumb people fall for and buy these days.

    New Camaro may be short lived!

    Actually, a regular G8 GT will outrun a GT Mustang stock for stock. A Solstice GXP, Cobalt SS, Vue Redline, or G6 GXP will keep up with one, but outhandle it. A base vette will destroy a GT or a GT500 (though a base vette is not in the same price leaque so that is irrelevant). Even a...

    DAMN WHEEL HOP!!!

    Probably because it already has a lot more power than an SN95, so you aren't too concerned with it not having enough? Put it this way. My brother has an LS1 Camaro, they have a similiar suspension to ours, almost identical LCAs and panhard rod, only difference is they have a torque arm...

    How often do you....

    Fuel filter causes bad milage allll the time, because with the drop in fuel pressure the injector pulse width is widened to accomodate. How long has this been going on? And where do you live? All of my vehicles have always lost about 2-3 MPG when they switch to the winter gas from the...

    DAMN WHEEL HOP!!!

    I'd deffinetely get the relocation brackets, they aren't designed to correct pinion angle, they are to change the way that the suspension transfers weight to the rear axle.

    Need Help threw some codes last night

    The alternator has to be out of the car for that, and they cannot test for certain problems with it. That, and they're morons. I spent WAY more time than I would have liked to arguing with a guy at Murrays taht an alternator was bad, when his "machine" disagreed (wouldn't warranty it)...

    Tranny Question

    It's much easier on a manual. Remove drain plug, wait untill fluid is drained. Reinstall drain plug. Remove fill plug, fill trans to capacity, reinstall fill plug. I dunno what the capacity is on this trans, most transmissions have you fill it untill it poors out of the plug, but this one...

    53000 miles on first set of brake pads?

    Usually when pads or rotors are glazed like that, they will make loud noise when stopping with moderate pressure. It is not uncommon to get that kinda miles if you are a good driver though. I got like 70k on my Ram's factory pads. My mom had an 05 Grand Prix GTP what had about 90k when we...

    6.2L BOSS motor being released!

    I wouldn't say that engine would be nesecarily any heavier or bigger than a 5.4. Hell I wouldn;t doubt if it was still based off the same design. But internal size has nothing to do tith external size anymore. A few examplys, a Chevy 4.8 liter truck V8 is no smaller than a 7.0 liter LS7 or...

    Need Help threw some codes last night

    technically they don't have to warranty a diagnosis of an electronic fault due to the PCM being modified, this is one of those cases where you are kinda screwed.. What I would do if possible is put the stock intake back on and stock tune, see if the problem comes back and if so take it to a...

    Does this 06 have a Xpipe? ( pics inside )

    it'd be easier to use a splice in pipe designed for this car, and the FRPP and Pypes ones are both under 100 I think.

    Need Help threw some codes last night

    Interesting. I guess it's more of an issue of sensitivity to unrectified AC voltage. You learn something new every day. I still wouldn't swag the alternator though without diagnosing, but that's just me. As far as the OPs question on where to get a good alternator, personally I would only...

    Great News out of Detroit

    That's exactly the insecurity that I was talking about. Why is that, you don't want another car to compete with? Do you only want to race Mustangs forever? Or is it that you're afraid because Chevy has the balls that Ford doesn't to put an actual POWERFUL engine in their cars, rather than...

    How much drop?

    Sorry to hijack but I have wanted to ask redfire 3 questions: What size tires do you run, what brand is your fuel door, and is that a 3D carbon grille? Thanks. To the OP, I like the look of the steeds ultralights.

    header install price

    I dunno for sure about shorties. I'd have to guestimate about 2-3 hours. I dunno what labor goes for where you live. Around here it's on average about 100 an hour give or take.
