    what modds do i need to get my s197 to run 13.0s

    Drag radials, 4.10 gears, long tube headers and a good tune. Tires being the most important. You can have all the extra power but putting it to the ground is another thing. Going through this myself right now.

    Idle ??? after cam install

    I had a tune issue with my d rockers after install but a new revised tune took care of my problems. My issues were not like yours. Did you purchase your cams from AM? If so call them up and ask for a revision. patrick

    Cams or longtube headers

    In my journey with this stang my long term plans were to add bolts ons each complementing the next move. cai, tune, 4.10 gears, long tube headers, and finally cams which were just done last weekend. Long tubes are gonna give it real throaty tone. I even have hf cats and its still very loud...

    detroit rocker in.........tune problems with an auto

    Ok first, I got a new tune and all is fixed. Brenspeed rocks!! Now to your deal.....header install is a huge job, not technical but just time consuming. I followed a DIY write up from another forum. If you need it, LMK and I will look it up. It took two days for 3 guys to do the headers...

    detroit rocker in.........tune problems with an auto

    Talked with brenspeed today. They are sending me a revised tune. It seems my issues are related to the auto trans. I think you will be fine. I hope you have the two tools to do this install, I cant imagine doing it without them. Good luck. patrick

    detroit rocker in.........tune problems with an auto

    With the big help of my mechanic friends we were able to install the cams. Its a big job, but lets call it a technical job. Using that spring compressor was not easy IMO. You had to get it just right or it wouldnt work. I download the brenspeed rocker tune and the car started up fine, but...

    Cams or Intake manifold?

    Get the cams dude. Anybody that lives within driving distance from brenspeed count yourself as lucky. Getting your mods installed properly and tuned properly is everything. Our here in the pacific I have to do this all myself. Not sure if there is even a dyno on the island!! And if there...

    Switch to longtubes?....

    You will get more out of those cams with long tubes in there. You have done this much it would be a shame not to put the icing on the cake. Go for the pypes. Mine are great............so are the detroit rockers!!!!!!!! patrick

    GT vs Z28

    As stated the mustang torque curve is deceiving............feels slow. I felt the same way when I first test drove and the purchased my car. It just felt slow, but ran a 13.92 stock. Get a cai and a real tune and take off a half second off your 1320 times. It did for me. patrick

    Never thought I'd ask about this...

    Trade for a different car. Sorry about the stones...............I know they hurt like a SOB. patrick

    Intake really needed?

    Well if you plan to get cams such as detroit rockers then you defiantly want a cai to fully utilize those cams. Buy a jlt2/sct combo from brenspeed or look for a used one. A tune from a reputable tuner is a must too. Bad place to skimp. patrick

    2011 V6 Test Drive ... AWESOME!

    Am not looking forward to all the tourist on Maui roads with 300 hp mustang convertable rental cars from now on. If you have never been here, its like every 5th car is a mustang vert. Gotta keep modding my 06 Gt to stay ahead of the tourists!!!!! LOL patrick

    Torch Red Wheel Ideas

    Keep 2007 or buy 2011?

    Keep the current car. Pay it off then mod it up. And you dont need 380 HP to run 12's. I ran a 13.22 with street tires with a crappy 2.15 sixty foot. Give me DR's and I am in the 12's. I would guess my HP is 300 or less at the rear wheels. patrick
