It was only a few nights ago, since I drove it. It ran fine, had bright lights, and the voltage gauge was reading normal. I charged the battery...

    Looking for old pic

    Along time ago a member on her bought a Typhoon intake. Soon after he installed it it developed a leak right in the seam of the crossover. He had a pic of it squirting out and I would like to find it.

    SCT MAF in a 3" pipe and meth injection?

    Could I put my MAF in a 3" pipe from the 4" housing and still drive to the tuners? Also I'm considering removing my SC and running water/meth injection as my only source of intake cooling. I want to free up as much restriction as possible and raise my octane at the same time. So I would need...

    New TFS intake pics.

    The only complaint I have is that the inside of the upper intake could be a little smoother. I wonder how much it would cost to port it?

    Going from TR3650 to 4R70W?

    If I decided to get an auto ecu and auto trans harness for a 4r70w what else would I need to make it work like stock? I of course know I would need another tune. What about the clutch switch that allows the starter to engage? Thanks.

    8 rib AC delete?

    I know Riechard racing has an adjustable one but it's an arm and a leg. I like the price of the Ford racing kit but they only come in a 6 rib. Is there another alternative or an 8 rib idler pulley that will fit on the ford racing bracket? Thanks.

    Converting 90mm maf to blow thru on Sc. Pics

    Well it hasn't been easy but I think I got it done. I can't try and start it until the fuel rails and Zone 5 stage 1 FPDM show up. I still need a couple more t-bolt clamps too. I went with a 12" piece of 4" straight pipe in front and in back of the MAF. I was told by a reputable tuner as long...

    Back from the dyno.

    Well it made pretty good power but we had to back out the timing because I was running out of fuel. He said once I find the problem he could probably get 620-630 out of it. The only thing that bothers me is the drivabilty is still crappy maybe even a little worse. Anything between 2-3k and...
