    Explorer motor

    Use the intake, injectors, sensors, and harness that are already on your car. $950 is a pretty good deal. Good luck. -Mike

    I've known of Craig for a looonnnggg time... even berfore his famed 'twin Vortech' days... He was extremely stand-off-ish when I approached him about a motor program years-ago (late 80s/early 90s). Guess his poo still don't stink. -Mike

    How much rwhp loss would you expect from switching from 3.27 to 4.10 gears?

    I personally know of two (well known) 2VNA cars that have LOST rwhp on a Dynojet from nothing more than switching to steeper gears. This dosent mean the engine has lost power, it simply means that steeper gears will effect (in some cases) the overall rwhp number. -Mike

    Can't find any plastic CAI's

    You already own a good CAI, its called the stock rubber tubing and airbox. Just add a drop-in K&N with the silencer removed and your golden. If you really must drop hard earned cash (stupidily), get a full FIPK from K&N. -Mike

    Camber Problem

    the Maximum Motorsports c/c plates are awesome. (as mentioned) there is a ton of adjustment range with them and the quality is second to none. FWIW, you can get you car aligned as perfect as can be, but if you drive aggressivily and/or dont rotate the tires they will continue to wear the...

    Camber Problem

    whoever adjusted the plate in that pic is a butcher. theres no reason for damage like that as the rivots can easily be removed with a small chisel and punch. anyways, once you car is lowered get the car re-aligned and request the following specs... -.75 ~ -1.00* camber (equal on both...
