    Slack In Timing Chain

    I just fully rebuilt the 4.6 3v in my 2007 mustang. Upon reassembly I used a brand new FRPP timing kit. Got the car running and tuned but when I left the shop after it sitting overnight it started clacking in the front. It was a random noise, not in time with the rest of the engine. I pulled the...

    Bamachips 93 Race Tune!

    I got my JLT 2 Cold Air Intake and my SCT X-Cal 3 today. All I have to say is helll yeah. Doug at Bamachips did a great job with the tune. The stang pulls from 4K to 6k in the blink of an eye now. The throttle response is unbelievable, and my exhaust note has a deeper growl to it now. If you...

    I now swear by Pink Wax

It looked pretty good so i bought 2 bottles and figured "hey, if its a hoax, oh well." i waxed my car with it this morning and all i can do is it just look at it and say "oh...my...god." :jaw: this stuff...

    2-Step for 07 GT

    So i've definitely made up my mind about getting a two step limiter after my most recent trip to the track. I only hooked well once. Every other time was an epic fail. I either do a John Force burnout through 1st or I bog down. My dilemma is this: I am very likely getting an SCT x-cal 3 in about...

    Cutouts on a Terminator

    I have a question for all you lucky 03-04 cobra owners. I was recently watchin a video on youtube of a blown '95 cobra, and when he opened his exhaust cutouts on the dyno he lost 4 hp. Does anyone have positive results from cutouts on a terminator? I know it'll sound like an F-18A when you hit...

    Question about Headers...

    From what I've been reading, the best headers I can buy are Long Tube headers. I realize this but i was wondering how effective the aftermarket shorty headers are. I know that the longtubes scavenge better, but i didnt know how comparable the shortys were. Considering that a good pair of shortys...

    An.... unusual blower

    You may think I'm stupid for asking this, but has anyone seen a through the hood blower on any modular mustang? I mean, it seems it would have to be a custom job. I mean you would have to reroute your intake and all that crap. I mean I've never seen an application like that on an EFI car. But, i...

    Offroad and Emissions

    I've got a question about emissions. I'm getting an Offroad Prochamber in a few days , and I don't think that it will pass emissions. I also don't think we have emissions in Alabama. None of my friends have told me about them failing emissions, and most of them would when they pulled their...
