    Clutch Swap with Magnacharger

    Anybody had to put a new clutch in after installing a Magnacharger blower? I'm in for 30K on the stocker and she's shot. Can the transmission be removed without having to undo the front motor mounts to tip the engine? It's tight back there.

    Superchargers and the Cruise Control

    I have nothing but good comments to say about the Magnacharger supercharger system. (Other than the throttle is a switch rather than an analog device.) The acceleration is still way crazy above 4k. I have a grand total of about 1000 miles on my Magnacharger and am still trying to figure out...

    Magnacharger Install....

    Here is the latest on the install. The toughest part was removing a steel line from the coolant crossover tube and drifting in a brass plug. Other than that, it was just following the directions. I'm biased, but I think it looks awsome on the car.... More to follow...

    Late Christmas = Long Weekend

    I was cruising the forums on the day Stillen had their Magnacharger sale last month (the 28th I think) and finally talked myself (i mean the wife) into the purchase of this thing. The instruction manual looks great and the best thing in the world of shipping is expanding foam. Stillen has been...

    Aftermarket Head Unit and the Shaker 1000

    Just finished swapping out the Shaker 1000 for a Pioneer AVIC - Z1. It's funny, the local installers would not even discuss keeping the Ford amps/subs. They all wanted to "bypass" everything. I ordered the wiring harness from Crutchfield and the Pioneer unit from SonicElectronix. The only...

    Engine Trouble Light On After Fuel Gauge Failure

    This morning 3100 miles into my new GT the fuel gauge went to empty (1/2 tank of gas) and the diagnostic indicator stated DTE Error. Great. After a shutdown of the engine and restart the gauge went back to correct indication with no errors on the panel. After work on the way home the gauge...

    AMSOIL Motor Oil Service Interval?

    I have been fairly religious on my vehicles about following the recommended service schedules. I had some time before my Mustang needs its first oil change and decided to do some research. From the AMSOIL website: **************************************** SERVICE LIFE In personal cars...

    Paintless Dent Repair and other stuff...

    Got my door dinged today and I have contacted a local paintless dent repair shop to take the car in tomorrow. Anybody have any real experience with this type of repair? If you take a look at some of their past work http://www.dixiedent.com/ I should have no worries, but I have never seen any...

    My Engine is Out of My Car...All of the threads

    Do you know what an 05 GT looks like on a roll back wrecker? I was driving home from work today and the new GT with about 800 miles decided it wanted to go back to the mother ship. Had to have her towed to the dealer. The engine was running extremely rough and had zero power. I took some...

    05 Intake Cover Missing?

    Has anyone seen the silver 05GT intake cover pictures out on the web? Anyone who owns an 05 got one like that? The black plastic intake looks bad for the top end on a great motor! I would buy one in a minute! Any info would be great. Thanks.
