I installed Flomasters American Thunder axle back system last month. Got em off ebay for $125 shipped! They sound good. And as far as loudness goes, they are somewhere inbetween stock and slightly piss the neighbors off when the car idles next to their house! Not super loud I guess is what...

I have been debating the following questions myself: 1. Should I put a blower on my 05 Gt? 2. Should I buy a 2011 GT? or 3. Should I buy a used GT500? I am mostly interested in power (arent we all)! Im looking to be in the 500-600hp range with a forced induction setup. I barely...

When you go to the dealership, have your tried taking them on a test drive with you? That way you can show them exactly when and what your are feeling. Take the service manager for a drive. If you can duplicate it with him in the car, they cant say they couldnt find anything. Also if...

Take it to the dealership and have them sit in the car with you and show them what its doing. Let them figure it out.

The only mods to the car are those listed in my signature. And some Gt500 wheels and tires, which I dont really consider a mod. I do have a bunch of parts waiting to go on, but im trying to get the car into the 13's first. No point in adding go fast parts if you cant drive the car to begin...

Good point! These intakes seem to cool down pretty good on their own anyway. The ice was just an old habbit from my Foxbody days! Anyways this week I pulled a 14.21@98mph with 2.22 60 ft times. Then backed it with two more 14.20 passes also with 2.20 60 ft times. No ice involved lol...

I wondered about the plastic intake as well. My car sat for a while before I put ice on it. I had made 5 back to back passes in about 25 minutes and then let the car sit with the hood closed for about an hour before icing down the intake. At that point the intake was slighty warm but the...

Anyone had any problems with iceing down your intake??? I was at the track yesterday and a guy told me that people have had problems after iceing down their intakes, specifically water entry into the spark plug wells. Anyone have any issues with this? Just want to know for next weeks...

I just bought some UMI control arm relocation brackets today. Got mine off Ebay though. Cant wait to get them, hope they help with the 60ft times.

I'm going from the 17inch 235's to some 255-45-18's up front and 285-40-18's out back. I was gonna try and recalibrate the speedo with the X3. But I dont think we can do it without actually tuning the car. I think I'm just gonna put the wheels and tires on and worry about the recalibration...

Back in the day, I had a few buddies that did their own gear swaps. Seemed that they were lucky to get a summer out of em before having to do it again! That same summer, I payed a few hundred bucks to have mine done at a shop, and it lasted over 5 years with some very aggressive driving. Like...

This probally falls under the Noob category, but I just got my tuner and I have never used one, so bare with me! Ok, I bought a used X3 tuner. Its unlocked. It has some custom tunes for a different strategy than my PCM has. I'm not worried about the tunes and dont plan on using them. I...

When you say valid, are you asking if they will do the TSB, or are you asking if the TSB is whats wrong with your car??? Either way here is some info.....bare with me its a little long, but well worth it. You could always print the TSB and show it to them. But now with 41K miles, your out...

Turned out to be my pctools Spydoctor antivirus not allowing the program to open. Once I completely shut it down and restarted the computer, the SCT updater opened without a problem. :doh:

Just downloaded the SCT updater and firmware to my desktop computer. For some reason my computer wont open SCT updater. I called SCT and the tech logged in to my computer by remote, and he couldnt figure it out. We uninstalled and reinstalled it, we shut off the antivirus/spyware and...

This thread reminds me of the heartbreaking trips to the dyno that my friends used to make with their foxbodies. They would add the "advertised" HP gains from every bolt on they threw on their car........throttle body 20hp........intake manifold 27hp.....cold air kit 20hp....underdrive...

And lets not forget that numbers will vary from one dyno to another.

The tubing definately looks like the racer, and it is larger than the MAF housing (cant remember the exact measurment). The guy I bought if from got if from Bamachips, so that would make sense. Guess Ill be calling AM when its time for my tune.

Well the inside diamater of the MAF is 85mm, looks like I have the street intake. Thanks guys

I just bought a used C&L cold air kit for my 2005 GT and I dont know if its the Street version or the Racer version? :shrug: The tubing is black plastic and not the cast aluminum. This leads me to think its the racer as i havent seen the street kit with black tubing. There are no part #'s...
