I too have the "dreaded" BBK SSI intake. Not by choice. Came with Christine when I bought her. The fuel line thing is not an issue for me, I did some crafty -an fitting magic. The stock PCV grommet does not fit snug in the intake and occasionally falls out. No its not crankcase over pressure it just dont fit tight. But the thing runs awesome with it on. Rubbed the stock hood had to do a cowl. I'll certainly be buying a Track Heat at some point so I can have a stock hood and a strut tower brace.I can't say I've read anything good about those SSI intakes. Do you have problems with oil leaks?
I have the same issue with the PCV valve lol. My intake hit on a 2 inch cowl. I had to run an intake spacer because of my tall valve covers, so I assume without the spacer, a 2 inch cowl would work.I too have the "dreaded" BBK SSI intake. Not by choice.

I can't have a strut tower brace. I have the dumb *** BBK SSI intake that sits up too tall for anything to go there.

If you look closely you can see where I had to cut the supports out.
It really just depends on how much you want to spend.
Somebody's jealous. ^
Also MM it terrible. Direct bolt in my ass. I would shop around for parts that are cheaper, and easier to work with. you pay for a man and sticker. I have stickers of you want them, they won't be seen anywhere near my ride
no. MM is not garbage and there are quite literally people in the tens of thousands of people that would line up to argue with you. I however, will not be that person. Someone who is giving technical advice and spells brakes as "breaks" doesn't compete with my Monday morning deuce. I think I'll go do that instead.
Take everything, everyone's said and forget it. I didn't even bother reading most of them. Our foxes lack two key cornering advantages. 1) lack of steering angle 2) wider stance(they are narrow and long.) I've been looking into this since 06 when "drifting" went main, main stream due to my friends leaving me in the corners all the sudden. You really just need a totaled 94-5 mustang. (V6 or V8). Only differents is the rears. V6 is a 7.5 and v8 is 8.8. Then sn models have longer A arms up front, which pushes the tires out more, so you can turn the wheel more( more angle, and wider stance. two birds,one stone) you also go five lug and upgrade to bigger breaks. You have to swap the whole front to your k-member. Due to- well I wont get into that. Use your stock k member or QA1 doesn't hurt. You must swap everything over( sway bar, rack, outter tie rods, hubs, a arms, breaks. I mean the whole thing( you may have to buy a new steering linkage) The rear if not an 8.8, you will have to go buy one separate. Few hundred bucks. Normally. The 94-5 rears are wider, rear disk, and five lug. Then you use all the cable out of you parts car for the e brake. Then all that's left is to remove the brake booster and everything that goes with it. I believe a few people have all ready done the swap. Look around more on here. Most do it for the 5 lug and don't even swap the a arms, which is sad. All you really buy is a totaled sn then you part out everything else and. And your money back. Also putting In a cage is very help full.
I love spelling words wrong to get a rise out of people with no life. I have 2 mm items on my ride, neith one is anything special, and was over priced. I did not you the word garbage, I said terrible. Good job. Mayb your the one downing the sixer. Either way it's opinion, and I believe it's wrong that your try to talk down to me because I stated the truth. Keep wasting your life trying to be somebody. I'll be busy living mine.

I wouldn't run Strange struts on a car you want to handle. And you need to know going in that there is hardly a better example on god's green earth of "you get what you pay for" than there is with shocks and struts.
Spend the money on Bilsteins and call that one a day.
Then spend the money on coilover kits that will work with them, and call that a day. Maximum Motorsports makes Bilstein-specific kits whose sleeves are designed to fit the slightly different Bilstein housing. Everybody else makes one-size-fits-all and then people complain "coilovers are noisy".
Spend the money on height-adjustable rear lower control arms and save yourself a huge PITA swapping springs 8 times trying to get your rear ride height the way you want it. They're expensive, but once you get them, you'll kick yourself for not getting them sooner.
I'm not a fan of poly bushings on both ends of the uppers, but whatevs.
Then spend some money on a local autocross school so you can find out what snap oversteer feels like, how to anticipate it, and how to recover from it, in the safety of a 50-mph corner in a parking lot instead of a 70-mph on-ramp.
I find it funny that the "advanced members" are attacking me just because I'm trying to help out a fellow member. Is this how everyone on here gets treated?
Hi, is your name Jeremy?
Can your "opinion" back up the years of testing and championships that MM can?
I may be old, but at least I can spell...
Maybe
Neither
Use
You're(in triplicate)
actually i bet UPR has more championships on the drag strip the MM does road racing... and i bet UPR does more for the drag racers then MM does for the road racers
im not going to get into the UPR vs MM debate anymore cuz honestly im tired of hearing everyone **** and moan like a bunch of high school girls with PMS and there thongs twisted. but if you want to go race win for race win and championship to championship UPR will win
