    Expired Gunmetal Forgestar F14's

    I have a full set of excellent condition gunmetal Forgestar F14's - 18x9 (+35mm) & 18x10 (+42mm). Put on in August of 2012 and took them off in September 2012. Around 1500 miles on them. Loved the wheels but I decided to go with a lighter color wheel to contrast with my Vista Blue. These are...

    Clunking noise in front suspension

    Check the swaybar links. They have to be ridiculously tight (89 ft lbs) or they cause clunking.

    Be careful - A "tuner kit" by definition is missing alot of pieces and will be unusable without laying out alot more cash.

    Longtube Headers With Catts?

    Notwithstanding the "California" problem - Also be aware that not all hi-flo cats are created equal. If the rear O2's are turned on in your tune, then you may get cat efficiency codes.

    07 GT Auto Trans. Issue. Any Ideas?

    The 5R55s trans has 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, & OD. The 5th gear is the OD. If you switch off the OD, your top gear is then 4th. You may be feeling what you think are extra gear changes in 4th and 5th but it is only the converter lock-up function. With a 5R55s, never punch it WOT in OD. It will kick...

    Wolfgang is amazing stuff. Try some Pinnacle Souveran on top of the Wolfgang, you won't believe it.

    Drivetrain New Gears Or Engine Bolt-ons?

    3.73's make a big difference in feel from 3.31's. Bear in mind that your speedo will be way off afterwards. The tune has to be tweaked. Not sure what the dealer will charge to do that, but if you already had a handheld tuner and tune it is a simple fix.

    Wheels and Tires...HELP...07 GT

    I have seen alot of guys using 17" skinnies on the front, to help with steering response and provide brake clearance. Then they use the 15x10's (same brand of wheel) on the back.

    Shocks/struts Opinion

    Check out the Koni STR.T's. Not real expensive and great for stock replacement and for when lowering. I am very happy with them. AM just started selling them too.

    Whats A Good Cam?

    Ford Hot Rods or Brenspeed Detroit Rockers. No need to replace valve springs with these. Decent power gains and sound.

    Little Quick Question

    It will close but it will have a little gap underneath at the grille. Not really noticeable though. If you have access to a real KR hood, go for it.
