Not to be a dick...but there's some things in your mod list that I really don't understand.



Is there really a "roadrace version" of the 3550? I honestly have no idea. Just sounds weird.



You mean you have a driveshaft loop? Why? Pretty sure IHRA and NHRA both require this only for cars ETing below 13.0 or below 13.5 on slicks.



When did BBK start making MAFs? That 75mm throttle body is likely killing your intake velocity and hurting you powerwise.





Doesn't the Venom thing advance your timing? I thought that was basically it's only function.


Yeah, if you're running no smog and no EGR, the Tweecer will allow you to shut off their functions in the ECU. You'll also probably want to ditch the Venom thing with the Tweecer and reset your timing to 10*. You'll be able to adjust timing via the Tweecer.

Yes there is a road version call and ask yourself,Its a 3550 geared up quite abit a hardened to handle 500+ hp-600+ftq
Every time I do anything to my car ,im looking ahead,when I did the aluminum driveshaft,tranny,clutch and rear all at once i figured what the hell im gonna need it later,so I put loops on it.And I dont goto the track,this is for my own concerns only.

The maf was a typo and my fault,its a frpp that came with some dang computer that feeds way to much fuel.As for the TB,same with the loops ,looking ahead.
Im not sure what the venom does ,but I know my timing is controlled by my box,er a module that plugs into the box,not the venom.With it on,there is a noticeable difference,why,i dont know but it works well.

Im still running my timing at 12 because at 14 I get no ping what soever,so I backed it to 12 and car runs remarkably well.And my timing was done by a guy from hendricks(SP) motorsport.He came down to squeeze an extra 89 horse outta a motor that was supposed to run in the 2005 nascar season sponsored by rabbee racing.Since my brother works there and Im running the nascar version of the 6al,(6aln)and rabbee had the module to retard the timing laying around the shop,he hooked me up.You wanna know what kind of difference it made,have it done,you wont regret it.

LOL I see what your saying,but my combo works good for me for now.I live paycheck to paycheck and have always upgraded my car with the future in mind.Untill I hit the lotto or my son goes off to college,this prolly wont change.Ive had my struggles making it all work together,but im fortunate enough to have the kinda friends I have that can fix it for me.Ive gotten more slack from them about it than anyone else,But noone says anything when I start pulling away at top end.:nice:

Almost forgot,you were being a dick,didnt even say hello.Jk =)
And thnx for all the new welcomes.

Welcome man! I wish I bought the Tweecer earlier, so good call on that one. It does wonders on all cars no matter if its stock/modified. Where in Florida are you? For hosting pictures try photobucket.com, free and easy to use.


As for the comments as to why have a driveshaft loop, why not have one? They are around $40, and will save your ass when your driveshaft/yoke/joints let go.

You cant goto a mustang site anymore and not read about the tweecer.It just seemed liked it made sense to get one sooner than later.And im sick of looking at the check engine light!

I live in Palm Coast.20 miles north of daytona and 30 miles south of jacksonville off of 95.

And yeah,I saw the U-Joints go on 2 seperate occasions at a high enough speed that I dont EVER want it to happen to me.Once in a stang,and once on an ole chevy silverado.Neither were pretty.

Palm Coast huh? I live about 15 minutes north of you in St. Augustine. If you ever need any help with the car I'll be glad to help!


TY for the invitation,2 minds are always better than one.I extend the same courtesy to you.Yeah I live close to matanzas so im right at the edge of st.aug!
 
Here you go!

Been a little busy but here are a couple pics.I know the msd is wired a little ghetto,but these were taken 2 days after I replaced the jacobs to see if that was my problem.Just kinda threw it in there,gonna move it inside shortly!

not too bad looking! Welcome to Stangnet!

I would put lowering springs up there on your list too...

as far as suspension goes. Tighten the crap out of your body/chasis. That will help with handling and launching. It will make a bit of a rougher ride, but with what you've done already, i doubt you'll mind/care
 
Agreed,I deff. have to lower it.Im just one of those guys that likes to do projects like that all at once.I h8 to add one component and go back later for another.Thats why it hasnt been lowered yet.I want to make sure I get the best possible combo for what I want when im finished.So when I do my suspension,Ill do it all at once.Prolly when I pull the motor in the future is when it will get done.And yes,comfort doesnt affect me yet,lol!Eventually my car will have the feel/ride of a radial flyer being yanked down the road by dads old truck.Almost everyone in my area has there stang lowered,but now they cant hook?Thats what scaring me.
