    Those of you with the Blitzsafe iPod adapter in an S197

    I'm looking to buy this bad boy for my '06 V6 'Vert. I found a REALLY, REALLY good price on one locally. Blitzsafe - FORD / CAN M-LINK2 My only quibble is that I can't seem to find any mention of it playing podcasts. The menu that comes up in the one video I have found seems to default to the...

    Take that elitist prius drivers

    Nope. And for every person that perpetuates stereotypes of women drivers I can find at least a matching bad driver that's a guy.

    Frustration! What do I need to put a GT-style grille on a V6?

    Have you actually found a GT-style grill that fits on a V6? Like I said in my first post, American Muscle has a grill, but the lights are closer from the sides of the grill than on the GT.

    Take that elitist prius drivers

    Eh... My wife can parallel park between two cars that are closer than I'm comfortable with and she'll hit neither of them... On the other hand, my neighbor across the street is a guy that seems unable to park his Acura in any less than two spots at a time... And he has a driveway while my house...

    Take that elitist prius drivers

    Funny thing is that I left the cruise control on the other night while driving my buddy home. I had it set to 65mph and the highway I was on is mostly flat. According to the build-in info system in my '06 V6 'vert, I was averaging 31 mpg. I guess I could park in that spot.

    Do-it-u-self Tuning?

    I could be wrong, but I was pretty sure there was a USB port on the SCT tuner with which you could connect it to a computer. Actually, here's a link that has stuff to do with that. SCT Downloads / Product Registration

    Do-it-u-self Tuning?

    I'm by no means an expert on this, but it seems to me that an SCT tuner or a Diablo tuner would be needed to do what you want. They both are able to read the sensors available to the ECU, so you'd be able to gather data and adjust things as you see fit.

    stupid question

    That sounds like good advice if he's looking for an excuse to put a new motor in the car... :rolleyes:

    2008 GT Exhaust Recommendation

    My theory on this is that Ford may actually have just put a good exhaust on the car to begin with. Flow is probably more restricted in the exhaust manifolds and even with a good set of headers everything behind them is still good. It seems that exhaust replacements seem to be good for a...

    Frustration! What do I need to put a GT-style grille on a V6?

    I've been searching for days and I simply can't find a through-and-through answer. I keep seeing stuff like, "Oh, I got this grill from some guy on teh Intarwebnetz" without any actual links or pictures or anything. What I want: GT-style grill that fits the V6 grill opening Wiring harness...

    pony grill harness help, anyone???

    Sorry to bump an ancient thread, but this is very interesting... I just got an '06 'vert. I'm not sure what the production date is... I'll have to check tomorrow once the sun comes back up. However, I'll have to give a look underneath the hood. What would I be looking for? If this is indeed...

    Air conditioning system capacity?

    Cool. Thanks, guys. Got totally ignored on The Corral (seems to be the way over there unless you're buying expensive parts). Vacuum the system? No. The low-pressure service port was venting out, so I'm pretty sure most of it has been evacuated. I just wanted to know how much the system holds so...

    Air conditioning system capacity?

    The A/C in my '94 GT decided to vent out due to a bad low pressure service port... So I got a new port and I'm going to fill 'er up, but... What's the capacity? How much R134a and oil do I put into the system?

    can my mustang be used for pick up truck duties?

    I did the same thing when I swapped out the stock H-pipe for the off-road pipe I have on my car right now. I didn't have anywhere else to put it, so I put the seats down and laid the pipe inside the trunk.

    Flaming River FR1508 - what else is needed?

    I'm going to call Flaming River themselves tomorrow, but I'd also like to balance sales pitch against real-life installs. My suspension consists of coilovers on the struts and the upgraded Ford lower control arms. I'm running 17" rims that were takeoffs from a brand new '06 car (with the stock...

    Flaming River FR1508 - what else is needed?

    My power steering on my '94 GT just decided to take a dump and leak all over the place... So I figure this is a good excuse to upgrade. I'm looking at the Flaming River FR1508 rack and pinion setup. I know all the pros and cons to manual steering and I'm cool with that. What I need to know...
