    rims for 06 mustang

    You are right, I had it backwards. I have seen a SN95 with S197 wheels on it and they were tucked in too far.

    NOS Booster in your car

    Don't waste your money. Are you trying to turn regular into premium or add octane to premium? Either way the stuff doesn't work, the directions for my supercharger specifically said not to use octane boosters. There is no benefit to burning higher octane gas than your car requires. It is...

    rims for 06 mustang

    I think the bolt pattern will be fine but the offset is likely to be off, the wheels will probably be tucked into the wheel wells pretty far. You would probably want a 35mm to 41mm offset for your car. Are they local pickup or shipped, if they are local then maybe see if you can test fit them.

    Weapon X coil on plug

    There is nothing wrong with the factory ones, so unless there is something wrong with your stock ones then leave them alone.

    rims for 06 mustang

    A little more information would be helpful. Factory wheels or aftermarket? What size and offset? Most likely they will have the wrong offset and be tucked into the wheel wells pretty far. What are you using them for?

    new member and need help please!

    That setup will be extremely loud. Most people that have done that setup with the 4.6 said it sounded like crap. Muffler deletes (which the loudmouths are) and an off road x pipe sounds raspy and annoying on the 4.6. That may not be the case with the 5.0 but I would do a lot of research...

    Brembo Kit with alternate wheels?

    It is not the wheel diameter that makes wheels not clear the brembo brakes. The spokes might hit the caliper. I do not know about those wheels in particular, but that would be the issue if they don't fit.

    Brake pads question

    Once you get decent at it, you will be able to change a front set of pads on pretty much any car in less than an hour. Once you do it you will see how much money a dealership makes on brake jobs, it is sometimes around $500 for probably around $100 in parts and an hour in labor. It is...

    Brake pads question

    I like my Hawk HPS pads, they do make dust but are a good street pad. EBC is another good brand, something like the Carbotech Bobcat is also popular. The fronts are very easy to change, the rears are more difficult, the piston has to be rotated to be pushed back into the caliper.

    big brake kit

    I just read a thread on another forum saying they were very unhappy with their wilwood kit and would probably sell it to you if you wanted. They said it was missing a lot of installation hardware. But the reason there are very few kits for the rear is that they are not necessary. The rear...

    Suspension Package

    You won't have a problem. They are the correct offset and I run Roush 18 x 10 wheels with no problems. You probably don't want to run anything much wider than 275 width tires on the front, I think 305 width tires even fit on the back without any problems. I haven't heard of anyone with...

    1st post, 1st mustang, 1st supercharger :) Now what? Looking for 430rwhp

    VMP is pretty widely recognized as the best M-90 tuner. I would just get the VMP 500 package from them. Maybe call them, Justin is the tuner's name, see if he recommends the cams.

    Stage 1 vs Bullitt

    The brakes are an unlikely option, it is relatively rare on even the 427R models which are supercharged. It was over $2000 for the option so it is unlikely someone would want the big brakes without the suspension that comes with the Stage 2. The springs are a cheap upgrade to do later so they...

    installed roush supercharger ,,still a turd!

    Get a tune from VMP (florida) or JDM (new jersey), their kits both include a smaller pulley, and CAI and a tune. They make a huge difference in both throttle response and power. The Roush tune is known for being conservative. A stock m90 car should be around 360 rwhp. The VMP and JDM tunes...

    Stage 1 vs Bullitt

    The Bullit will perform better since it has a 3.73 rear gear, a slightly better suspension, and a little more horsepower. The Stage 1 is a visual upgrade only. It is up to you whether you like the more understated looks and better performance of the Bullit or the more attention grabbing Stage...

    Airaid insert in or out?

    I had the same intake from Roush and if you take the insert out without a tune it gives the MAF sensor a bad reading. You will end up running the engine lean without the tune so leave it in.

    Suspension

    I do not have any drag racing experience, what I know is from reading on the forums, but since no one else has helped out yet I will try. The most common drag shock/struts are QA1. I do not know how they perform on the street, but if this is your first modification for drag racing, I think you...

    need some ideas...

    Your money may be better spent with a better set of shocks/struts and springs, swaybars as well if your budget allows it. I am not sure what you have now, but if you have stock parts, there is a lot of room for improvement. I had a strut tower brace before I put on my supercharger and did not...

    Suspension Questions

    Are you looking for better handling for street use only or are you interested in autocross? There are better parts out there than the FRPP or the other kits. I started with a Roush kit on my car, I was happy with it for street use, but for autocross I ended up replacing the shocks and struts...
