    Brake problems?

    My sister owns a 2002 automatic v6 Mustang. Anyways, the other day she told me her brakes went out on the highway and had to use the e-brake to stop. Now I looked at everything, and it all checked out fine. Reset ECU, but there weren't any codes. :shrug: She said it only does it occasionally...

    So... 97 Cobra question

    Im am pretty sure the 97 cobras had 4valve heads. So their heads are kind of like the new cobra heads... Just NPI? So could I technically take some PI heads off a newer cobra and put them on the older cobra? Kind of like a PI swap into an older GT... Just dealing with cobras.

    SLP exhaust and Mustang tuning O/R xpipe

    Im a teenager. Frankly, SLP isn't loud to me at all. Im always messing around with my car, so taking it off every once in a while isn't that big of a deal. So emissions aren't a concern to me. Now, how loud is really loud? I can take really loud. I want to pull into parking lots and have...

    Shop owner wants to sell me his Novi 1000

    My friend who works at a shop has a used Novi 1000 blower. It came off of his wife's 96 GT. Will it work with my 2004 GT with little or no hassle? Im guessing Im going to need a bracket at the least, but he assures me it will fit. Oh, and he is selling it for 1400 bucks. Good deal? What do I...

    V6 hood on GT and hoodscoop questions

    It is known that if you cut the honeycombs out of the GT scoop-the scoop can fly off at high and not so high speeds. Why? Because it is a two piece assembly. So what if you take a V6 hood and cut the honeycomb out of that? It is one piece and wont fly off. I happen to have a V6 hood and want to...

    Cams with agressive idle

    What is the most agressive cam I can get without changing out the valvesprings? I don't plan on building my motor up by any means. Just bolt ons and cams. Maybe nitrous someday, but now just minor stuff. What has the most agressive idle? Sound clips of them? I want my 04 GT to sound really mean...

    P&P C&L plenum

    So its finally summer and I have a lot more free time to work on my car. I've got the C&L plenum for my 04 gt. I noticed that the inside was pretty rough. Would polishing/smoothing it out help with gains? Or does the roughness help create turbulance.

    How to make the stang handle reallly good

    I was thinking it over... And although I would like to drag race this car, I think backroads and cruising around are much more fun for me. So, in short what will it take to get this to handle just as well as an e30 (m3) or a 350z? Bilstein shocks/struts springs (dunno what rates or anything)...

    VRS Stainless O/R X pipe bolt up?

    Hey. I've got stock manifolds and an SLP exhaust. Does this bolt straight up to stock locations, or do I have to weld it. I heard it on a stang the other day and it sounded sick. I don't think anyone else has it with the SLP catback and I aim to be different. Thanks! :flag:

    Is it really worth it to...

    Work on the suspension on an 04 GT? Nothing too fancy, but enough to enjoy it more when going down backroads. Stiffen it up a little, but also be drag racable? Or is suspension for our cars like throwin money into a civic. Wasting it. I was thinking a moderate setup something like...

    My N/A air to fuel numbers

    I got my car dyno'd a few weeks ago. My air/fuel ratio numbers were in the high 10's/low 11's. My car is pretty much stock except for K&N/70mm mac tb, c&l plenum and catback. What do I need to do to get this to normal. N/A 04 gt should be in the 13's right? How much HP am I losing here? Pulls...

    High pitched squeal under the hood

    I installed a 70mm TB and C&L plenum, but now I have this highpitched squeal. Anyone else had this problem? What could it be? I kinda want some info before I go root around in the engine looking for stuff. Thanks. :flag:

    SLP exhaust install. HELP!

    OK, So I get my SLP loudmouth catback exhaust in today. :banana: So I start unbolting the stock exhaust. Now I had to cut the stock exhaust to get it off because of the rear axle... But many of you already knew that. BTW Im not using jackstands, jacks or anything. Just me and the car and a...

    C&L Trueflow inlet pipe?

    Got a 70mm Throttle Body, C&L plenum, and K@N filter for my 4.6 the other day. Installed them and everythings great. Now I am looking for my next mod that will compliment this setup. I hear that bends before the MAF will hurt performance, and an aftermarket MAF isn't worth my money, which leads...

    SLP Exhaust (not what you think!)

    Last I heard SLP was behind on their orders. I ordered mine and I knew it was backordered... Anyone know when they are going to ship out to retailers and people? Thanks. :flag:
