    Dyno ?

    I know there are many factors that play into it, but just curious as to about how long it took you guys with blowers to get your car dyno tuned? I just finished installing a Vortech onto my 2000 GT and I'm going in for a tune tomorrow. Just wanted to get a sense of about how long it will take.

    Blow Thru MAF ?

    What problems would arise if the hose going from the IAC valve was plugged into the intake side of a vortech as opposed to the discharge pipe? This would be using a blow thru maf. Would it be fine for a few days before getting it to a tuner?

    Window Motor crapped out

    Has anyone here had experience either changing out the motor for their window or having a shop do it? I just wanted to see what it might cost. I found a few threads about slamming the door and all that but it still didn't work. How easy is it to do by yourself? Any help would be appreciated.

    Was in accident, need new bumper...

    I was in an accident a few weeks ago and I was just wondering if anyone knows what the difference in price would be for the 03 cobra front bumper over the stock GT one?
