    Who runs 12s with barely anything???

    With my old 89 Mustang before I sold it I ran a 12.8 @ 108mph. At that time the car had a 255lph fuel pump, ZEX 100 shot, TB, EGR, AFPR, Ported and Polished Upper and Lower intake, and MAF meter. Everything else on the car was stock. It was probably the cheapest way to get into the 12's and...

    Ever heard of this brake problem?

    When I apply pressure to the brake pedal softly and slowly the brakes slow the car down perfectly. If I hit the brakes hard for an emergency stop the brakes can barley stop the car. The brake pedal feels very hard and doesn’t go all the way down to the floor. I'm so confused! I ordered...

    My Rev Limiter isn't working. Why?

    I recently had my car dynoed and my tach is around 800rpms off at high rpms. My rev limiter kicks in around 7,000 rpms... The stock tachs can be even more off. Also, if you engine is stock the car doesnt make any more power after 5-5,200 rpms. So it's pointless reving it all the way to...

    VW R32 vs. LX 5.0 ?

    I think your weight and horspower are way off. I would think you are no more than 190rwhp and 3000lbs at the most. But who cares just go race him. If it's not for money then you got nothing to worry about. Let us know how it goes!

    Problem with my brakes! HELP!

    When I stop normally at lights and stop signs the brakes work fine. When I get past the point of just slowing down a little and hit the brakes hard they don't stop the car any better. It's almost like if I push them down all the way they don't work. But if I hit the brakes a little they slow...

    Supercharging stock motor

    EXACTLY! Also, a supercharger is easy as crap to install. Especially if you don’t have oil lines like my Powerdyne. I got it done in 1 day by mostly by myself and I have never installed a supercharger before. Tearing down and engine to install h/c/i would take me a lot longer. I just wanted...

    Supercharging stock motor

    I have a 91 Mustang with 130,000+ miles. The motor is stock with no upgraded internals or bolt on upgrades. I installed a Powerdyne 9psi supercharger a few months ago and have had no problems. The car runs strong and makes 270rwhp/322tq. I didn't get it dynoed before the supercharger but...

    If you make one for a Powerdyne I'll buy it! Great idea. You can make a fortune on those. I know getting the belt tight on my Powerdyne is a pain the in A$$!

    Do i need a dyno tune if i supercharge my 93 cobra?

    Yes, you do! At the least you could just get a few air/fuel runs with no tuning. Usually costs around $75. It's always a good idea to make sure your air/fuel is right on target. You spend $1000's on your car, whats a few hundred more to protect your investment!

    HELP! Bolts for BBK AFPR do not fit!! Anyone have this problem?

    I went to lowes and got some small bolts. The only thing that would fit is 10-32x 1/2. They must have drilled the holes the wrong size or something. Because even a new screw in the stock size doesnt fit. Very weird but I think I have the problem fixed.

    Strut Tower Brace

    I put one on my car a week ago. I didn't really notice any difference. I bought it for 50 bucks. I wouldn't buy a new one but for 50 bucks I couldnt pass it up.

    HELP! Bolts for BBK AFPR do not fit!! Anyone have this problem?

    I tried to install my BBK AFPR and the bolts from the original FRP don't fit. The instructions say to use the orginal hardware. Do you have to buy new bolts? What size are the bolts that I need? Thanks!

    THUMPER FANS

    I got thumper heads. My car made 238rwhp. Everyone says its low but every dyno I've had done the tech says those numbers are right on. All I have are the heads, ported and polished upper and lower intake, 70mm TB and EGR, 73mm MAF, shorty headers, Bassani X-pipe w/ cats, and Cat back exhaust...

    Replacing/Fixing air bag... is it possible?

    I wonder if I can legally pass in VA if I just remove the airbag and everything that goes with it.

    Replacing/Fixing air bag... is it possible?

    I bough a 91 LX 5.0 off a friend after he rear eneded an explorer. The air bag went off and I was wondering what you have to do to have air bags working again and the light to go off... I can get an replacement air bag cheap, but do I need new sensors in the front or any other parts? Thanks...

    Zex Nitrous

    What convinced me in buying the zex kit was an article in a Mustang magazine where they put the zex kit on a 5.0 with like 125,000 miles and it ran strong. So, it was good enough for that car. When my car only had a cold air intake and exhaust I ran high 12's with the 125 shot. I also had...
