    Is it safe to run a higher octane?

    Without a new tune, running a 92/93 octane on a car will waste money. I did actually remember somebody saying that running a higher octane than your tune is designed for can actually be harmful. Now, if you get your car tuned for a higher octane, then it should be fine and you'll get more...

    Anyone ordering a GT500 or are you merely salivating ?

    I think you folks should plan to spend at least $3000 above MSRP if you intend to actually own one. That's unless you're friends with so-and-so at Ford or at a dealer.

    Convertible Roll Bar?

    I recall some time ago a Football player managed to flip a Corvette convertible and killed himself and an occupant. If you can flip a Corvette, then you can surely flip a Stang.

    Need a good shop in the Los Angeles area

    Axle-back you can do yourself on 05s for sure. On previous stangs it was more difficult, you actually had to cut the pipes with a hack saw. There are practical limits to DIY, however. Do leave differentials and transmissions to the pros - you DO NOT want to do that yourself !! It...
