    Upper intake bolt question

    I was bored yesterday & decided to make sure my header nuts were nice & tight. got about 1/8 to 1/4 turn avg. out of them. Seeing as I had my 1/4" drive ratchet with the 8mm socket in my hand (from removing & reinstalling the stock intake tube), I decided to check the upper intake bolts...

    Couple of Questions, Help!!

    True dual is fine, but you will shift your torque curve a small amount UP in the rpm range....that's just the way it is. You'll gain some hp on the top end though. Oh, and do not go any larger than 2.25" piping, or it WILL be a complete dog off the line.

    Concern about removed air silencer

    1. No. Just don't drive through puddles that are 4 feet deep. 2. Put the air silencer back on. You lose a hp or 2 by taking it off---you are now sucking in hot engine-bay air. 3. If you don't want to put it back on, send it to me. My car (bought used) didn't have one on it.

    Bypassing the PCV system

    Are there known drawbacks or advantages to bypassing the PCV system? I'm wondering because I did just that over the weekend. I was changing my plugs and pulled the plastic tube that goes from the PCV valve to the top of the intake & there was oil in the intake end. I went to Pep Boys &...

    Need Audio Hookup Anyone???

    Hey, that's cool....I know how it goes.... But being that you're a 'dealer of high-end' stuff, you better move your ass & get a system installed.

    Need Audio Hookup Anyone???

    The man asked about your SYSTEM, not just your subs. Head unit? Front soundstage? Speakers? amp? Rear fill? speakers? amp? Power distribution? Video? Subs & an amp do NOT make a system.

    Speakers

    Ok, you're right. Go there if you know exactly what you want and you can get a good deal....but don't go there and expect them to be able to provide you with accurate answers. While I'm sure there are exceptions, most of them are completely clueless, and rather than admit it they'll just...

    Speakers

    :bs: Oh geez....Best Buy knowledge strikes again. Sorry dude, you're wrong. 5x7's are smaller than true 6x8's. Sure, most of them have been designed to drop into 6x8 openings, but WHY would you want to sacrifice a larger woofer? As '66 coupe has stated, many companies do...

    In Need Of Serious Help!

    ok.....but......if your reference point is the spot on the power cable that touched the motor, is the fuse between there & the battery, or between there & the firewall?

    In Need Of Serious Help!

    Are you saying that your ENGINE stopped running? Your power cable was against the motor? Do you have a fuse in the power cable right at the battery?

    mach 1000 amp rack

    I would recommend calling your local Ford dealer. The parts department should be able to help you in identifying the rack....and I'd imagine they're the only place you're gonna be able to buy it anyway....

    Mach460 preouts

    I'm not doing this myself---in fact, I don't even have Mach460....which is looking like a good thing. The problem with installing JUST aftermarket speakers has come up on other boards, so I was trying to gather some info. The Mach460 is 8 ohm, so when people try to install aftermarket...

    the guy at best buy told me to....

    You wouldn't be able to use the factory amps even if you wanted to....well, you COULD hook your aftermarket speakers to them....but the amps are rated at 6-8 ohms, and your aftermarket speakers at 4 ohms. You'll just load the factory amps & they'll shut down at high volumes. Also, your factory...

    Mach460 preouts

    Has anyone ever identified the wires in a factory Mach460 system that carry the signal from the head to the amp? Provided voltage & impedance were favorable, it seems to me that if these were identified it would be relatively easy to replace the factory amps w/aftermarket ones using the...

    What's this little thing for?

    Anything's possible, but that would be more money and headache than it's worth. Believe me---I run with my trac/cntrl off all the time. I can't stand it. I'd rather spin a bit & have some fun sliding the arse end around. FYI---you've got 2 little black filler plugs just in front of...

    What's this little thing for?

    It's not for traction loc. Traction loc is not electronic. You meant traction CONTROL, which some V6 stangs DO have. It was part of a package.....ABS & Traction control. If your stang is 01+ then it's for foglights.

    Bla bla bla Get what you want. When you ask these questions on an internet forum you're never going to get anyone to agree. My personal 0.02---the K&N FIPK is the superior design above and beyond any other. Here are my reasons: Plastic tubing for less heat (would only really notice a...
