    How much can a T5 Handle

    I have been told that a T5 can take more horsepower that rated as long as your not a bitch to it. I am doing a turbo kit, and its on a rather tight budget, so was hoping to stay with the stock T5, and the guy who is building my kit has had a turboed stock car for 2 years now. His is what i...

    What Transmission

    i am really leaning towards the T56, they are smooth as hell, and can handle some power. Plus D&D makes the swap kit, so its rather easy. The only problem is finding one used with a mechanical speedo pickup.

    Getting off Window Tint

    thats basically what i did with the drivers side window, but the one i was worried about was the rear hatch glass. I don't want to go in there with a razor to all the wires that run across the glass for the defrost.

    radiator fluid mysteriously dissapearing...

    i would check out the heater core hoses. I had one leak, started smoking and smelling really sweet kinda. Opened it up and coolant was flying everywhere, the smoke burns your eyes too. I had just filled up the coolant and like 100 miles later it did that.

    I have a buddy that has the turbo mounted in the fenderwall, and he also has the nos solenoids and everything out of sight. lift that hood and it looks bone stock, but a CAI tube, or so you think. Its a sick setup, but you'll never hide the whine.

    if i am not mistaken dosen't spintech make a side pipe kit for any mustang 87-03. If you plan on running subframes, you have to get some with a big notch for the pipes, besides that they look really cool

    Granetelli Forced Induction Oilling system

    Well the heat of the turbo or supercharger is now being transfered to the oil, making it even hotter than it was before. Well i usually when you get a turbo or supercharger they recommend changing the oil more often since it now has more than its normal purpose. It nots really one of those...
