    Anyone purchase my old Tungsten GT?

    I used to have an 06 Mustang GT, posted here a lot. Just wanted to stop by and say hello. I still love the 3 valve S197s....... I traded the car in to Ronnie Thompson Ford last September on an 03 10th Anniversary Cobra with 17,000 miles on it (exhaust only). Since then I have added a 2.8...

    New Exhaust Setup

    I noticed that the Pypes mid-muffler setup is just a straight through mufflers with the over axle pipes and then the delete pipes. I also noticed on the Pypes website that you can purchase just the M-80 mufflers. I was thinking of adding those after my h-pipe and then clamping on some 2.5 turn...

    High Speed Vibration

    I have a high speed vibration that starts around 90 mph and gets worse the faster I go. So I haven't been driving that fast anymore because I don't want to damage anything. I have had two JPC driveshafts, three spyder shafts and I currently have a shaftmasters on there now. The vibration...

    Differential Fluid for Detriot Truetrac Ford 8.8

    I am getting ready to install a Detriot Truetrac differential with FRPP 4.10 gears. The factory fluid is a Synthetic 75w-140 with 4oz friction modifier.

    Spec vs. Centerforce vs. Fidanza

    I am getting ready to pull the trigger on an aluminum flywheel and upgraded clutch/pressure plate kit. Looking at what I have seen everyone either has the Centerforce or the Spec kits. I have heard great thinks about Fidanza, but I would like to buy it as a package deal. I am looking to spend...

    Variation in Ride Height

    I have the FORD service manual CD's, but I couldn't find any specs on factory ride hieght or variance. I measured from the bottom lip of the wheel to the arch on the wheel housing. In the front there is an 8mm difference from the left side to the right side. In the rear the difference is...

    I have 4.10s but....

    I currently have FRPP 4.10s, but I was thinking of 4.30s. I looked at the RPM vs. Gears chart and there really isn't much of an RPM increase in overdrive. I wasn't sure if I should stay with the 4.10 or go with the 4.30s. Would the 4.30 be a better gear for quater mile times/speeds?

    A/F changed

    I have been running a tune from a well known tuner. We have been trying to work out this problem. After a few months I noticed that my A/F ratio was starting to richen up at WOT and half throttle(11.8 to 12.0). No other changes have been made. I had to take some fuel out to get back to 12.6 to...

    Flowmaster American Thunder loose baffle

    Any info on new engine package for the Mustang?

    I remember reading online about the "Hurricane" engines the Ford is developing. I believe that they were going to have several different sizes of the new engine package 5.0, 5.8, and 6.2. Not sure whether or not they were all SOHC, but Ford does need to have a better engine program. Not to...

    Updates on FAST and CNL intake manifolds?

    Anyone have any news? I read the article on CNL's website but they haven't updated it either. From what I understand FAST had to redesign theirs to try and get the claimed power. Is there any preliminary word on the power the CNL will give on averge?

    X-pipe on JBA LT Headers

    Anyone know of any company that has an x-pipe that will fit on JBA Lt Headers? Would it even be worth the $$$ to switch from an h-pipe to an x-pipe? I realized the sound differences and prefer the H-pipe but what about the performance between the two? Thanks

    Noise after installation of aluminum DS

    I have noticed since the install of the JPC Driveshaft I have a noise in first and reverse when lifting off the gas. The noise is only in those gears, and if you disengage the clutch the noise will stop. I wonder if the driveshaft is transfering more noise than the stock unit. Anyone else...
