    Best Tire in Cool Weather for Dry Launching Traction

    I can live with running all season tires in the winter and fall and putting the drag radials back on for spring and summer. I researched a little on tirerack.com. It looks like Michelin Pilot Sport A/S, Pirelli PZero Nero, and BFG T/A KDWS might be good choices. I would like to hear from...

    Best Tire in Cool Weather for Dry Launching Traction

    In cool weather with with gears, boost, and stall, my 245 Nitto drag radials can only hold about 1/3 throttle at launch, even after a long burnout. Which street legal tire will give the best dry launching traction in 50 to 65 degree weather?

    Adapting to 11.4 inch torque converter bolt pattern

    The TCI Streetfighter 3000 might be a decent converter. Check out the article on TCI's website for the install on a 99 Mustang GT and draw your own conclusions. I would like to have some other good converter options beyond the PI triple disk paradigm.

    Adapting to 11.4 inch torque converter bolt pattern

    There is a good selection of 4r70w torque converts on Summit, but they are all for 11.4 inch bolt pattern. I believe the 99 & up Mustang GT has a 10.5 inch pattern. Anyone know the technique to install a converter with 11.4 pattern in my transmission? If you know the part numbers of the...

    I gained 104 rwhp with the base Vortech non-intercooled kit. So if you only do this much, you would have some pleasing numbers.

    fuel pressure reading ?????????

    That sounds OK. My fuel pressure reads about 25 psi at idle. Then the KB BAP will increase it to a little over 50 psi at 9 psi of blower boost.

    Where can I buy a gear shift knob for my 99 GT with auto Tranny? I searched around but found nothing. I would like something alumium, stainless steel, or chrome plated.

    He is right. For 1 grand, this is your best acceleration mod at this point.

    Got a great compliment today!

    Yeah, many people try so hard to act like they are rich when very few people really care how much money they have. The 'show other people how rich I am' is just a flaw in our culture I guess. I would also rather keep it real with other hot rodders.

    JBA Shorty Header Dyno Results

    Great, please post the results when he is done. I think 7 to 9 rhwp sounds about right. I saw an article in 5.0 Magazine about 1 year ago where they dyno tested the BBK shorties on a n/a 2V with PI heads & manifold. If I remember, they gained about 8 rwhp peak but the losses below 4200...

    Anyone have any dyno numbers for JBA shorty headers? I searched but did not find anything. I know long-tubes are better, but I need smog legal. Either n/a or blown results would rule!

    Predator Article

    I will drink to that. Thanks. Very informative article. I like the part where Diablo suggested to max out the timing. It is a multiplier of base timing. So this will advance the timing about another 1.5 degress. And 1 deg ~ 4 rwhp, so 1.5 deg ~ 6 rwhp. This is close to the gain they...

    Diablo Predator Question

    Yes. Many say the SCT is the best. But I find the tuning and data logging of the Predator very effective. In other words, it does everything I expected, and everything I need. And when you go beyond the basic tune, there is a nationwide network of "Chipmaster Revolution" dealers than can...
