Mustang_GT_02 said:where can i get a good stall onverter n what do they do, should i get a torque converter too?, also maybe a auto fan or whatever its called, n maybe a shift kit? all opinions appreciated, thx guys !
Dark Knight GT said:Transmission cooler - this is a must have for the auto as heat is the number one killer of automatics. The 24,000 GVW from B&M is a pretty good one. I use the one from Steeda and its pretty good too.
Torque converter - anything less than 2800 stall is a waste IMHO. I have one with a 3k stall and it works great. Go to www.houstonperformance.com to get one. They are probably cheaper than anyone else and Steve Drier will be happy to help you. I paid 714 for mine shipped to the door.
Jerry mod shift kit - best shift kit for the 4r70w automatic transmission. It was designed by Jerry W. himself. It's safe and effective. Go to www.tccoa.com and read their transmissioni articles on the 4r70w transmission for more info.
Gears - No less than 4.10's for a n/a 99-04 GT. Go to www.stangstore.com and look up how cheap they have their gears for. They'll probably be cheaper than most others. You can also try Randy Stinchcomb over in the Ford Parts forum at www.modulardepot.com
I'm going to have 4.30 gears installed in my car soon along with the other "comming soon" mods I have listed in my signature.
Mustang_GT_02 said:thx alot dude but damn TQ so expensive, is it really worth it?
RacerGT said:You have no idea... lol. I dropped .4 in the 1/4 from the converter alone. That was a consistent .4 as well. I'm looking to drop a few more tenths with a better launch next time out.
And to whoever said 4.10s are too much on a daily driven auto, you're absolutely incorrect. I still manage 18mpg city and 22mpg highway. I wouldn't want it any other way. At 78mph, i'm at 3000rpms. I'd go 4.30s if I wasn't broke.
Follow Dark Knight GT's list and you'll be 12s all day. I'm 13.0 with gears, converter, exhaust, and DRs right now.
Mustang_GT_02 said:k thx what kind of TQ do u have? and what would u recomend? thx man
Dark Knight GT said:What Racer GT has said is true too. Follow the list and you should be 12's all day. However, I dont see Racer GT in the 12's yet. Probably because he's realized he's never going to be the fastest n/a auto guy w/ bolt-ons on all the Mustang boards. Its going to be me.
jas142 said:Woaaa, 12s with gears, tranny cooler, torque converter, and the jerry mod? Or 12s with whats in your sig?

RacerGT said:I would have hit the 12 if I took a crap before my run you bastard.
Dark Knight GT said:Well, if I'm not mistaken for every 100lbs. heavier, you loose a tenth. Therefore, since you were only .03 hundreths away, all you would of needed was to be 3lbs lighter weight in your car and you would of had it. You telling me you can crap 3lbs.? Thats one heavy shlt lol. I hope you use double sheeted Charmin.
Seriously, why dont you just give it up along with BCH-SLP. You guys know once I get my parts in and get my wheels and slicks, you'll never beat me.
RacerGT said:We shall see. I look forward to seeing some numbers out of your bucket. I'll be there right along side you the entire way, with less mods.
