    Car Show Damage - Quandry!

    Hey all, been a while since I've been on, probably better for my pocketbook, lol. I moved last year from Calgary to Victoria so I haven't had a lot of time for the forums or to do much on my car. Anyways that aside I was at a Mustang show in Victoria this past Sunday and I got there nice and...

    Full Roush Suspension Kit - Panhard Bar?

    I am planning on getting this kit, hopefully later this year, maybe in the spring if need be. With that in mind do you guys recommend getting a panhard bar for this full kit? It comes with pretty much everything but that. From what I've read it seems like a good idea for when you put springs...

    New Track Times

    Pretty busy night at Race City, only got 2 runs in as I had work to do and it was almost an hour between runs :-0. Density Altitude was on average better than it has been for a long long while and that aside I ran my two new best runs tonight. Only difference from my runs in July was the...

    Some updated times

    So I got to use my Kestrel 4000 Weather Station tonight. I knew the density altitude was going to be a ***** show but it was really bad tonight. On average the DA was 6500ft above sea level with only my last run at a more reasonable 5930ft. Humidity was climbing so the drop in DA wasn't...

    A few pics from local show (Including WMS Vanquish)

    Hey all, I got a few shots of my car and a friends car at the local Calgary club's "Presidential" show and shine. Shannon from WMS brought out his Vanquish Mustang (they're local to Calgary) and I managed to get a few shots of it before my batteries died. Check them out! My car...

    Only got one run in, but it was a good one! - Long Read

    So I went to the friday night street drags in Calgary here hoping to get a couple runs in with my car to see how the new tuner from Brenspeed has paid off (if at all). I get there at 6:30 expecting 20-30 cars and I'm welcomed to like a 100 of them! This is really unusual to say the least. I...

    Quick pics of my new mods

    I'll have better pictures next week (sorry about the dirt, it's been impossible to keep the cars clean with how dirty it is here right now). I got these installed last week, let me know what you think. The first is the Silver Horse Racing Honeycomb panel. I replaced the magnetic one I had on...

    Diablo to SCT Upgrade - Nice!

    So I unfortunately missed the note back in the day last year when I first got my car that SCT tuners and the tunes you get from the guys like Brenspeed were better for automatics. I bought my kit from RPM (NEVER BUY FROM THEM!) and it came with a Diablo tuner. The improvements were noticeable...

    A bit of a rant and need help finding solid C&L/SCT dealer

    --Cross posted here and MS forums-- Warning - Rant ahead! OK so I ordered up a C&L/Predator combo from RPM Outlet wayyyy back on May 29th, a couple days before I pick up my Mustang. I figured I'd have it in time for a car show on the 24th of June, half way through the month though I hadn't...

    Got my new grille overlay installed

    So after seeing the Downs Ford Mach 1 car and the grille they did I went out to mimic it. Overall I'm pretty happy with the results. It looks good and will do the trick until someone makes a factory styled 1 piece unit or I just switch out the front end and do a cervini billet grille or...

    A more complimentary (though brief) article on the GT500

    Installed JBL GTO speakers - Very nice!

    Well I finally finished installing some replacement 6x8's into my stang to bump up the stock Shaker 500. I found the Shaker 500's stock sound to be pretty decent, especially for a stock system but even before I had received the car I had found some nice JBL 6x8's on sale at BB and picked them...

    Black Tail light bezel

    Hey, I was poking around and had found a site before that sold the black tail light bezel kits for 05-06 stangs but can't seem to find it again. I thought I had bookmarked it but must have forgotten to. Anyone have these or know where I can find them? My searches have come up fruitless to...

    K&N CAI Experiences?

    Just gathering info, my first thought was to go with the WMS CAI kit. They're in town and I like the way the kit looks & works by and large. For me not having to use a tuner right now is a bit plus. I don't want to have to dick with it for the time being. For a little while my only mods will...
