    Why do I have boost?

    Wouldn't backfire create an outgoing vacuum instead of positive pressure? Air is forced the other way, so that only makes sense.

    It's true, our cars are heavy!

    Thats what I'm going for. Weight reduction without losing all the nice features of the car like AC. Im kinda surprised that the 05+ are the ones who weigh the most, Although I guess it makes sense. :shrug:

    idle problems

    Why do you say that? I've seen cleaning the IAC help out a LOT with smooth idling. I guess by the time it needs cleaning, its probably time to replace it. Its not too expensive anyway. Also, there might me a DTC without the check engine light coming on. You can rent a scan tool from a...

    idle problems

    Service the IAC and the MAF. You can use carb cleaner for the IAC. But for the MAF, buy electrical cleaner from your local parts store. It doesn't leave a residue, so it gets a good clean. Try that and report back. Good luck.

    1995 gt wont start process of elimination

    Says he already got the fuel pump replaced. Run a couple bottles of injector cleaner (one for the first couple tanks) , and 91-93 octane gas (if your not already) The fuel lines may be junked up from the sit. Gas gets really duey (spelling?) after it sits and will make the engine hard to...

    why so slow?

    Since your only running 1/8 mile, go 4.10 instead of 3.73. Try running without the chip. Have you gotten a good tune?

    March 2009 FOTM!

    Thats a good way to put it. I wouldn't even consider it to be fair with Turbofox. I could foresee him winning the second he was nominated. He has undoubtedly a great car. But 25th's mustang is REALLY unique. and I love the way it looks. :hail2: Congratulations to all. Everyone in this...

    Crazy Turn signal and headlight.

    Good point. Do as much as you can to pin point the problem so you don't waste money. Grab a Haynes manual. Take off the switch and test it before you buy a new one. Check fuses and ground points. It does sound like a faulty switch, but I would make sure before you spend the money. + you'll...

    debating on next shock and strut

    For a cumfy ride? You have the wrong vehicle. You might as well keep them stock. The bilsteins seem to be very popular. Im almost positive thats what im going for soon. Although I want a STIFF suspension, wheel rubbing in back is an issue for me :notnice: Good luck!
