    HID Lighting

    If you put HIDs in a reflector-beam headlight, you deserve to be shot. Do it right or not at all.

    Drag Radials, Daily Tires?

    ET Streets (radial, not the slick type) do just fine in the wet if you keep your foot out of it.

    Why does everyone bash the Cobra intake?

    Had an original Cobra intake (off of a '93) on my 5.0, I didn't think it was bad. My brother had a tubular GT40 on his, and I thought the Cobra looked better. I've seen a chart that showed the Cobra outflowing the GT40 by a few cfm. Forget where, though. I deleted it when I got rid of my car...

    Blues Brothers. Hands down the best (most cars wrecked too, I would think).

    Going down the 1/4 mile for the first time ever Saturday! Advice?

    We don't have DOT here..we have Transport Canada, and they are aligning more than ever with the US & DOT standards. I ran a pair of 275/50R15 ET Street Radials (not the slick type) on my crapcan 5.0L when I had it..it wasn't too bad in the rain, and since it actually has some grooves to it, you...

    Going down the 1/4 mile for the first time ever Saturday! Advice?

    I watched your car go on Saturday..it was neat to see you race against the blue notchback. Word from the wise, never try to do what they do..if you look inside their car, you won't see much. At all. Keep in mind it has a bone stock '93 motor in it, with blowby. It's even better seeing it run on...

    SRT8 VS 87-93 5.0

    My best friend's beater is a 1990 DX Hatchback with a D16A6/D16Z6 mini-me and a couple of bolt-ons. It has run a best of 15.4 @ 91; it's zippy, but not quick enough to take out a C4. I'm not trying to get into a pissing match here..I'm not against you, but I don't think a mid 15 can hang with...

    SRT8 VS 87-93 5.0

    Gonna have to disagree here, bud. The CRX's top of the line engine was the D16A6 from the Si, yet it still had only 108 HP and less than 100 ft. lbs. Yes it weighs 2000lbs, but it's still very underpowered. We're talking 16+ seconds slow. Even a limp C4 could do better. Now if the engine you...

    SRT8 VS 87-93 5.0

    They are dogs out of the hole, but once they're moving, they are freight trains. I raced a 300C SRT8 with my Neon..at first I was wondering why he was keeping up, then I saw the SRT8 emblem on the trunk lid. Took me until the top of 4th to pull half a car (from a roll).

    Has the Mustang been the best car you've ever owned??

    Probably worst. I think by the time I was done with my 5.0, every single replaceable part had a lifetime warranty on it, with the exception of the engine and body (which both needed work).

    Why are kids so F'n dumb??!!!!

    The answer is 18-19 psi on S1 injectors, or 21-22 if you run a returnline. As for SRT4s, I got the junior version. I like it much better..all the power (and more), none of the negative attention :D strtrcr50, I honestly am sorry to hear about your car. Sure we've had our disagreements, but...

    Prelude seats in a fox body?

    The seats out of an SRT4 are amazing. I had a pair sitting in my room here that I never installed; shipping them out tomorrow (I upgraded to SRT4 ACR seats). Find someone with an SRT4 and just ask to sit in it. The bolsters are huge.
