    Just got back from the dyno.

    Well, like the title says I just got back from Modular Madness Motorsports in Mooresville, NC. Let me say, Don is awesome at dyno tuning. Here's the proof: 295 RWHP 331 RWTQ Mods: MAC catted H-pipe, MAC flowpath cat-back, C&L 80mm MAF. Oh yeah, it's an auto, too.

    Attention: Auto's with aftermarket Torque Converters

    You will probably need a custom chip to get the most out of your converter. I know after I put my 2800 stall in I couldn't chirp my 1-2, 2-3 shifts anymore, and the shifts felt a bit softer. So, today the car is going in for a dyno tune. I have high hopes for getting my neck snapping shifts back.

    chin spoiler yes or no?

    Yeah, get it. But why aren't you going to lower it? You like the 4x4 look?

    MAC catback

    I've had my MAC cat-back on for 2 years. Still no rust. I love it's sound compared to any other exhaust I have heard.

    new auto tranny in 2005 stang

    Why would it be impossible? If you can stick a DOHC motor in a GT and get a custom chip to make it work, why wouldn't it be possible to do the same with the new trans?

    What it takes to beat a 98T/A in a GT?

    There is a viable alternative to an LS1.....Mach 1. Stock for stock the Mach's are as fast if not faster than LS1's. Plus, they are way way way cooler.

    Yep about 225-230. GT's are monsters!

    Fosuko racing seats?

    Anybody know anything about them? There's someone selling a pair of them brand new on ebay for $175.

    Engine swap questions

    You can use your GT computer with a DOHC motor, you just need to get a chip burned for it. The wiring harness has to be modded a little, as will your fuel system if you decide to keep your return style setup(I did). I even had mine set up to keep my coil packs. If you go NA or nitrous then the...

    Automatic to manual tranny question...

    I always dreamed of having a 5 spd in my car. Then one day I discovered high stall converters and valve bodies. Now, I don't think I'd ever want a 5 spd....all things being equal, I'm a bit faster than manuals now. There are some well known problems with the T45/3650 trannys. You might want...

    Shift boot on an Automatic

    I've got that shifter in black anodized.....looks AWESOME. Right now I've got a cheap little shift boot I got off ebay. It looks ok, it's just too small. I've got a 5 spd shift boot coming UPS. Should be here soon.

    Are LongTubes worth it?

    LT's are worth it N/A or FI.

    '96-'98 Cobra or 99+ GT

    The DOHC motor in the Cobra has far more potential than the SOHC in the GT. N/A or FI, the DOHC owns the SOHC. Think about it, you start off with 305 HP in the cobra. Bolt ons with the GT MIGHT get you to 305 HP(at the crank. We all know it takes head work and cams to get over 300 RWHP with the...

    How do headers sound

    With LT's and a prochamber it will be very loud and deep. I had some popping on deceleration with my setup. It's noticably louder at idle, but not obnoxious, at WOT it will just scream. Even for normal driving around, you will really be able to hear the difference. The power difference is very...

    Mac ???

    Unless you are using it with a C&L, Accufab, or Dragon plenum it's not going to help you at all. That is a good price, though. Jd's Performance is one the best places on the internet to buy from.

    BEST headers

    I used MAC LT's on my auto when I had my SOHC motor. They are awesome. They fit perfectly on auto trannies. You can also get them ceramic coated now.
