    Big Brake Kits

    The Baer GT+ kit does come with new braided line and yes the Baers do make a difference over stock. Brake fade from high speeds is gone.

    Shaker door sub swap

    I have the Kicker SSMB8's in mine and fit well and have decent mid bass but would not recommend using them as your only subs. They are also single 4 ohm.

    New Track Times

    well the 4.10's are going in soon and that will definately put me in the 12's but I would like to get there w/out them. I am running Nitto 275/40-17 d/r and had them down to 17-18 psi with no cupping but it did hurt my mph. The big question I need to know is if you '05 manual guys are going...

    New Track Times

    the tech at steeda gave me a measurement for the length of the upper link for -3 degrees but right now I am strictly going on that measurement. I was over at steeda yesterday before I went to the track and he told me that I should get it checked after I told him my 60 ft's.

    New Track Times

    Well this is the second friday in a row with good weather and so it is the second friday in a row that I got down to the track. Last time I got in 7 runs which is unheard of and got a best of 13.2 @ 105. Went down there this time wanting 12's so bad and only got in 3 runs but dropped my time to...

    Bassani X-pipe Install

    I didn't use anything but 3/8 ratchet and a few extensions plus an open end wrench for the O2's to get everything off and back on. Everything came off pretty easily and the tips didnt stick out any further. Only thing I had to redo was I had one of the clamps turned too far up towards the...

    Aftermarket head units and the Shaker 1000

    you will lose the pair of 8's in the doors and the subs in the rear. You CAN use the preouts on the N-2 and splice in rca connections on the factory amps at the signal wires and this will get them to function again. I would recommend the N-1 over the N-2 though if you will be using the front...

    First dyno run-not bad

    sorry for no graph yet guys-it wil be posted soon so everyone knows im not pullin this out of my ass. As for the a/f...it was right at 12:1 on the first pull which netted the 290.6-leaned it out and then got around 12.9:1 which netted the 296.2. Both are in a safe range for an n/a engine and...

    First dyno run-not bad

    steeda techs did everything while I watched. They were pretty strict about keeping out of the bay while the car was running at least. the software seems simple to use-just a matter of getting a hold if it for personal use--and a wideband.

    First dyno run-not bad

    Two weeks and 900 miles after driving the car off the lot, im done with performance mods for the time being. I thought since I would be leaving it this way for awhile I would get it on the dyno and ditch the "canned" tune and do it the right way. Went over to steeda since I live 10 min away and...

    Help with 05 gt Shaker 1000 aftermarket Install

    i think you are talking about hi level and low level inputs. some aftermarket amps allow both inputs but most use only low level (RCA's). you can grab hi level directly from existing speaker wires such as the rear speakers or use the same speaker wires to tie in a low level line output...

    Help with 05 gt Shaker 1000 aftermarket Install

    you have four 5x7 speakers (2 in the doors and 2 in the rear deck), 2 8" subs in the doors and 2 10" subs in the rear. When going to an aftermarket head unit and just using the plug and play harness you will lose all 4 subs since they are amplified. You can splice in RCA cable ends on to the...

    well since hearing all of everyones horror stories I have called and gone to my dealership a million times with still no reassurance. I spoke directly with the inventory manager who placed my order and she said that since ford accepted the order that it would be built. I asked if that means it...

    Pics of speakers inside door

    I am a car audio installer and have worked on a few of the '05's with the 500 and 1000 systems. The first time the guy left everything alone but I put an amp to the 2 8's using a line out converter and there was no ill effect besides louder and clearer bass surprisingly. I myself will have...
