    Anyone have Strange Shocks/Struts?

    Don't get them. The shaft is a hair thinner that most aftermarket c/c plates which = alot of noise. Search on the topic. Alot of guys have sent them back. I am getting rid of mine. The noise is unbearable at this point.

    MM c/c plate owners.. What brand shocks you got?

    So should I take out the small spacer below c/c plate and move it up top? I haven't tried that yet? This way all spacers will be on top and then I can see if its the spacer hitting off of something. From what I read, I still think its the strut shaft being machined too thin.

    MM c/c plate owners.. What brand shocks you got?

    I have MM c/c plates and strange adjustables all around. The rears are fine, but the front make so much "click click" type noise going over bumps I think my front end is going to fall apart. I tried to put up with it, but I've had it at this point. I did research and found that the strut...

    Bolt on Catalytic Converters...where can I get them?

    I have a 2001 GT and a VRS off-road X-pipe. I am getting the car lowered a bit to get rid of the 4x4 look. With this, it will be almost impossible for me to remove and replace the X-pipe for state inspections so I was thinkin that instead of shelling out a couple hundred bucks for an off-road...

    3:73 gear question

    In terms of the speedcal or chip, I am going to get the gears installed at my dealership, so do I still need the speedcal or is that a device the dealership should have? Also, forpit2000gt stated that "The kit with the gears should have shims, crush sleeve and pinion nut. I would get a new...

    The only X pipe I've ever seen to gain Torque...this much

    So how does the Dr. Gas X-pipe sound with the Flowmaster 40 2 chambers? I heard that x-pipes and flow 40's sound raspy. Like after you ahmmer on it then let off, on the way down it sounds like metal vibrating. Is this common and what have been your experiences..

    The only X pipe I've ever seen to gain Torque...this much

    well, being that it has to be welded on, I doubt that any service station in PA would put it on because it is illegal here for anyone to remove cats from a car. So a serviec station won't do it. Therefore, its not too "do it yourself" friendly to get a dr. gas, then have to try to get it...

    The only X pipe I've ever seen to gain Torque...this much

    its already together? People were saying it had to be welded together to "custom-fit" your car. I have a 01 GT convertible and I am on the DR gas site now. Do I need the 1979- 2002 MUSTANG SHORTIE HEADER X-CROSSOVER SYSTEM or the 79-02 MUSTANG MAC/BBK LONG TUBE X-CROSSOVER SYSTEM? Let me...

    The only X pipe I've ever seen to gain Torque...this much

    Okay that answers one part of my question and helps me out a TON!! Is this the standard way of installing the x-pipe.. Do you always use all 4 sensors? So my main question is: Do I have to drill all 4 holes in the x pipe and use all 4 sensors with MILS on the rear 2? From the looks of your...
