    2001 mustang suspension

    my bet is on a loose control arm. Happened to me a few times in my 00 gt a few years back but in the rear. Control arms came loose and rattled to hell and back any time I hit a bump.

    99-04 2v header reccomendations-shorty and longtube

    pretty substantial, but then again do you really want to go through all that work and spend the cash for 10 lbs? lol They are lighter but only n respect to each other the total effect that will have on your driving experience is slight if not noticable at all.

    99-04 2v header reccomendations-shorty and longtube

    Stick with LT's and mac/slp's are the ones ive heard of that allow you to drop the tranny with out taking off the passengers side header, which is a huge time saver for transmission work.

    Rattle noise under 3rd gear acceleration

    It definatly sounds like deteonation. I asked my gf to fill up the car one day while I ran to the bathroom at the gas station... didn't say to put premium fuel in it and she put 87 in which caused that same noise your describing.

    Perfect Launch

    Yes practice does help (this may be because the tracks i've been on, mainly pittsburgh raceway park, are not preped as well as they could be) but on 245/35/17 coopers the best i've been able to acheive was in the area of a 2.0 flat. A simple change in tires or drastic lol made a huge differnce...

    97 GT Clutch issues

    if it's squeeling and your feeling pedal vibration then you almosts definatly have a bad tob, if your going to pull it apart it's a judgment call by you to if you want to replace the clutch or not. If it were me however I would replace the clutch and flywheel or at least have it resurfaced...

    Perfect Launch

    yup its all about hte tires, stock tires your honestly best launching off idle or in the 2k range easing off the clutch and then putting it down, I invested in a set of drag wheels... nitto 05rs 315/35/17s and with about 300 rwhp She will hookup with a clutch dump at 4500rpm. You will never have...

    How much for a gear install?

    ^ Listen to this man lol, and as far as a tuner your going to want one or else your going to be guessing your speed. I can tell you tho that it will be about 5 mph lower reading on the speedo until you hit about 55-60mph then it gets closer to 10.

    2000 Mustang GT

    Thats not a bad price unless you are willing to get a little adventurous and try it youself. and all you will need it some new gear oil for the rear and silicon to reseal the diff cover when it's finished. Keep in mind installing gears will throw your seedo off so you will either have to live...

    00 GT, Random miss after warm up? Runs great otherwise.

    Yes you can feel it, at least I could. Keep in mind tho my car has quite a few other boltons but tuning the car after adding the said boltons gave me about 3-4 tenths on my et's. Yeah my car hasen't had any hesitations what so ever since I fooled with the tune yesterday so I'm guessing it had...

    Buying mustang gt with diablo Tune

    yes, most people that tune thier cars with any type of tuner remove the speed limiter, and yes a new tuner should just overwrite your existing tune and will have an option to return the car to the stock tune. That being said if you have new injectors or higher rate injectors in your car then you...

    Raxiom Sequential Tail Light Problem for Mustang?

    sounds like the problem is internal to the switch you put in with the kit, to be honest your probably better off giving american muscle a call and asking them and or just having a replacement shipped out to you

    00 GT, Random miss after warm up? Runs great otherwise.

    I also recently installed new plugs on my 00gt last weekend, same gap as you've described but I replaced them with a set of iridium plugs gapped to .56 and i've put in the neighborhood or 100 miles on it since, the car ran incredibly well and just tonight I noticed some idle fluctuation and it...
