    Steering Shimmy at Speed =\

    A friend of mine has a 05 GT and is running 17x9 Cragar SS rims with Nitto 235/50-17s up front and they have balanced perfectly off of the car 6 times in a row in the process of trying to find the cause of this shimmy which occurs while cruising between 60-70mph. He has tried another set of...

    3rd brake light and ducktails...

    anyone have any insight on potential inspection issues if you put on a CDC ducktail or equivalent that covers up the 3rd brake light? I've been trying to look at other spoilers, but the CDC is my favorite and if I eventually go that route, I'd like to blend it into the rear deck and fender...

    Protorque Torque Converter

    I spoke to the owner of Protorque yesterday. He said he hasn't gotten any converters in for this car yet but if we get one in he'll do it. Between a shift kit and torque converter restall you can see 3-4 tenths reduction, or equivalent to making more efficient use of 30-40hp :) Anyone...

    Any ideas on doubling HP output of V6 or V8 yet?

    I've been following the development of the 05 Mustang and I'm anxious to see what ideas and upgrades pop up. I currently work at a performance shop. We just installed a cold air intake, shift kit and higher stall converter in a customer's 04 GTO and knocked a consistent 4-tenths off his 13.7...
