    V6 Reliability

    So, my girlfriend is thinking of getting a used 96-98 style V6 Mustang. I've never owned a v6, only a 2 GT's and a Cobra, so im not really familiar with how reliable the V6 stangs are. Im wondering, should we worry at all about looking at cars with 70k or over miles, are these motors pretty...

    How safe is this A/F?

    http://forums.bradbarnett.net/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=21649 Not sure if you guys can see that, but basically over 2500 RPM it's 13.5-13.00. Is that safe for a n/a motor or should I try to get it more around 12.5'ish? Just wondering if I need to get a new tune for the car after...

    Got my Black GT Today

    Well I got it, black GT premium with 5 speed, IUP, Bullit Wheels, Active Alarm, Side Airbags. Basically everything besides the Shaker 1000. I had originally wanted the Shaker 1000, but after hearing the 500 in person it is great. It sounds just as good as the aftermarket system I had in my Mazda...

    Gas Mileage

    So has anyone heard what kind of mileage the 3v 4.6 is going to get? I'm hoping it willl increase 2mpg or so over the current gen of cars because of the VVT. Anyone know, or have any theories?

    Those of you who pre ordered

    I'm just curious, what kind of pricing are you looking at for a pretty well loaded GT? Were you able to haggle them off MSRP (no way am I paying MSRP or even more for a car that is mass produced). I'm selling my Cobra and looking at a 05 GT (I love the Cobra, but I want a N/A motor again...

    Got the Cobra Dynoed.

    Well today I went up to Dynopro in Denver and met Judah (Oh I hope I spelled his name right) and got the Car Dyno'ed. Judah is a friend of the person I might sell the car too (assuming he wants it, and I take the plunge 100% and sell it) so he came to check it out. He seems like a really nice...

    2001 Cobra Gas Mileage

    Well, im considering trading my 03 cobra coupe for a 01 cobra vert. I want a vert but I cannot afford the 03 vert, so im doing a little research. Also, I think I want to go back to N/A, more reliable and less worries. What kind of mileage can you get on a 01 vert? I just dont want to...

    Steeda Strut Tower Brace

    Ok, first off I did a search, couldn't really find much of what I wanted. Most of what I found was people flaming on the STB. Allright, I can get a Steeda STB very cheap. I'm always looking for little easy to install mods that can have a benefit. I've heard these don't make a huge difference...

    Question regarding power, altitude and longevity

    Allright, I have an 03 Cobra and I want to chip/pulley. I live up in CO at around 5800 feet. Im probably only putting around 320-330rwhp down up here, maybe a little more with my current mods (obviously more SAE, but im talking actual power). My question is, does this turn into less wear...

    New Rear Tires - Stupid Q

    Allright, I have some GS-D3's coming that I got a great price on through a friend, 285/40/17 for my rear tires. Im planning on just keeping the stock F1's up front for a while because they still have lots of tread left. My quetsion is this, the 285/40/17 tires are slightly taller, like .3 of...

    285's Up Front?

    Need new tires for my Cobra, Eagle F1's getting close to dead and they horrible suck. Only problem is, 275/40/17 GS-D3's are almost impossible to find, so im considering going with the 285/40/17's all around. Anyone think 285 up front is too big and will have a negative effect on handling...

    MRT H Pipe and Exhaust Leak

    So, I had the MRT H PIPE put on about 2 weeks ago and there was a ticking noise, with both the mechanic and MRT told me was probably pipe noise. Of course they never actually took a ride in the car to hear how loud it was. Regardless, I took it to a muffler shop today just to have them test...
