    13.90.....a big mahalo to stangnet!

    Well, I'm glad to see that you broke into the 13 second zone first time out with a stock car. I have hope for this weekend now :) This Sunday is the last test & tune of the year at my local track (National Trail Raceway), and I'm hoping that the weather will cooperate. It will be my first...

    Got $100 for my B-day what do I get?

    Aw.....c'mon that thing has to get you like 150 more HP... Unless you install it backward, then you'll have the HP of a Prius :rlaugh: As far as real performance items, yeah, $100 won't get much. It could get you some small suspension bits like the UCA, or some nice dress up items. I...

    Need help with this new exhaust system ^^

    Yes, you will need to tune for the long tube headers. I currently have the SLP Loudmouths with everything else stock, and I love them, but they are a tad too quiet for me. My plan is to go with long tube headers and an O/R X or H pipe, then do a mid muffler system or resonators.

    2006 gt Tyco electronic

    Yep, that is one of the connectors for the SJB (Smart Junction Box). Pretty much every electrical circuit in the car runs through it.......

    A sad day...procharger issue number 2

    If they were gonna' charge me $3,500 for a rebuild, then I'd get the Tremec 6060 from Stage 3 Motorsports....the complete kit including custom driveshaft, cross member, and shfter is $4250. The only thing that it doesn't include is a 26 spline clutch, and if I'm dropping the tranny, I'd be...

    Bought a car/need gofast help

    Yeah, using selective braking for traction control offroad actually works quite well. I've 'wheeled with some stock Toyota FJ Cruisers that do amazingly. But, when the goal is speed, using braking for traction control is kinda' counter productive........thats why the first thing that I do...

    Supercharger fitment?

    "The Ford GT version of the 5.4 L is a highly-specialized version of the Modular engine. It is an all-aluminum, dry-sump 5.4 L 4-valve DOHC with a Lysholm screw-type supercharger and showcases numerous technological features, such as dual fuel injectors per cylinder and oil squirters for the...

    Bought a car/need gofast help

    Great info Walter, but you forgot one. My personal favorite is the Auburn Gear Ected E-Locker. This spiffy little unit acts as a limited slip most of the time, but at the flip of a switch, power is sent to it, and it becomes fully locked, just as if it's a spool. Great street manners...

    Horespower Gain from just a tune??

    Has anyone seen any numbers on how well the CDC shaker system flows? By the pics that I have seen, it seems as if the air tubes are pretty small, and they have some good bends in them too.....I like the look of the shaker, but I don't know if it would end up being a restriction or not :shrug:

    Cant find exhaust info im looking 4? please help

    With long tube headers and an O/R X pipe, people seem to prefer a mid muffler system, or resonators welded in at the x pipe. Without mufflers it would definitaly be loud and have lots of drone. I put on SLP loudmouths in preparation of doing long tubes and an O/R H or X with mid mufflers...

    Mods to beat a stock 03-04 cobra?

    A stock 2003/04 cobra is rated at 390HP. This rating is also very conservative, with some making upward of 430HP totally stock. The Cobra coupe weighs 3665lbs. An '05 GT coupe weighs 3483 lbs. Both come stock with 3.55 gears (with the '05 GT being a 5 speed), but the Terminator is IRS vs...

    Hmmmmmm..............MIRAGE POWER........:rlaugh: From the ad: "NOTE: All of turbo parts and accessories do need to modification in order to fits perfectly. otherwise will list ABOVE." note the professional and knowledgable grammar. I'm sure that their customers say: "I could see those...

    Possible to find an 05GT for less the 17,000 next summer?

    I paid $18000 for my '05 GT w/ 32,000 miles on it, pretty much loaded 1 year ago, so you should easily be able to find one for $17000 or less.

    Cobra badges with Roush body kit

    Like kooldawg, I really like the clean look of the cobra front, and that is probably the direction that I'll go eventually, but I wouldn't put cobra badges on. There is a difference between customizing a car to your liking and trying to make it look like something that it's not. I'll have to get...

    Extra Key

    Yes, in order for you to be able to add transponder keys yourself, you need to already have 2 transponder keys programmed, and the programming requires both keys.
