    pulls hard part throttle, power drops at WOT

    pulls hard part throttle, power drops at WOT

    Im using the plugs that autozone has listed for 99 explorers. I forget exactly, but i think its AP25's. Fuel filter changed 2k miles / 5 months ago. Could there be sludge in the fuel tank? i'd clean the tank out when i change the pump.

    pulls hard part throttle, power drops at WOT

    I have a 255 lph fuel pump and an AFPR waiting to go on the car, but i have held off because i dont have a fuel pressure gauge yet. would "tuning" on the dyno entail dialing in more/less fuel pressure, and advancing/retarding the dizzy? thanks

    First timer

    HCI is Heads, cam, intake. I generally say HCIE because youre not going to spend all the time, money, and energy on HCI and leave teh stock exhaust on there. id recommend doing HCIE first and then thinking about boost.

    3g alt upgrade on a budget.

    Autozone took my stock 2g as the core charge for a 94 mustang GT alt. THat reduced the price alot and i didnt have to go to a junkyard and get a potentially faulty alternator. I also bought the 2g wire there. I wired it up using the diagram from bcbronco.com

    Mis-use of a what looks and sounds like a decent Mustang
