Just picked up a new 2013! Mike

I use Water/Meth injection on my supercharged Miata and the results are excellent. I am able to run high boost on stock timing without any detonation on 91 octane. Without the Water/Meth injection I was not able to run the car at the same boost/timing settings. Unfortunately, I don't have any...

Congrats! I agree with above posts, it looks like you need some new tires! :D Mike

A 190 should be sufficient for your current needs. Mike

Agreed! Mike

I use the Global West subframes on my '86. They were relatively cheap to buy and stiffened the car up significantly. Mike

Sorry, I don't have any info regarding the doors, but nice '86! Congratulations! Mike

^^^^^ Thanks guys. That's the info I was searching for! Mike

I've read that the stock lower intake manifold is the bottle-neck of the intake for the 5.0. What makes it so bad with regards for performance? Can any improvements be made to the factory manifold (porting, extrude honning, ect.)? Mike

NikwoaC, I did not notice any performance gains after swaping for the aluminim shaft, but I have not been to the track since the swap. I am selling the above shaft, which is a virtually new Ford Racing aluminum shaft and has been only used for a short time. If you are interested shoot...

I had Bride Zetta III's in my '05 STi and paid around $900 for each seat. The Bride's are the best racing seat on the market today and I have considered using them in my Mustang. If it works, and works great, why not use it? And that Mugen crap is expensive and not worth the money IMO when...

I'm signed up, I'll see you at the track on Sunday! :nice: Mike

My new HD T5 is installed. I now need to figure out if I will have enough free time this weekend to attend the event? Mike

^^^^^ True, the aftermarket solutions are expensive for the 4-lug. But hell, I'm used to spending $4-5K to upgrade brakes on my cars and I plan on doing the same for the Mustang. Mike

In my opinion, silver, but I have never been a very big fan of chrome. :D Mike

LOL! There are brake upgrades available that can improve the braking on 4-lug Mustangs, Baer's 4-lug kits would be one example. I would agree that the braking of any 4-lug Mustang is terrible from the factory. My '86 Mustang is one of the worst braking cars I have driven or owned and the...

I'm staying 4-lug. I don't see the need for the 5-lug swap with the aftermarket options available for both wheel and brake upgrades. In addition, you have to be producing some serious horsepower/torque numbers before there will be problems with a 4-lug setup. Which wheels are you planning...

You could always remove the spark plugs and check the color. If they have a powdery white color then the car is lean, a good lean (if they are white and blistered then the car is dangerously lean), if the plugs are black, the engine is rich. You can also remove the O2 sensors and check the...

LOL! Thanks for the compliments. Mike

Here is my daily driver, a 2007 Buell Lightning XB12Scg. Mike
