    Need build advice in Cali

    thanks for the help. I'll take your advice and see what happens. I'm puzzled by the turbo thing though because i have seen a lot of turbo'd mustangs and also nitrous set-up where much bigger injectors are used on street driven vehicles so I'm curious what is going on there. Also does that...

    Able to be covered?

    Your original question about leasing. There are a lot of factors that go into a lease. You will have CAP costs which are equvilent to a down payment, you will need to pay first and last months lease, and a few other costs. In terms of what the car will be worth at the end of the contract is...

    Investigation into sudden acceleration of 2003 Mustangs. (Carpet Problem)

    Hmmm, I had a similar problem in my '95 turned out as I drove the floor mat would come loose and work its way under the throttle and somehow would occasionally hold the throttle down. Scary as hell when your coming up to a red light and your car continues to accelerate even though you are...

    WoW, U beat a Subie congrats to you. How the HEll does that information help anyone guesstimate your power output ( unless your refering to mental power). Anyway a stock STi will hit 0-60 in around 4.8-5 sec and can be quicker if the driver is skilled. 1/4 mi times should be in the 12.8-13.0...
