The car had stock headers on it before. So you think the headers only added 5hp? And what about the rest of the combo with h pipe and mufflers?

So a friend of mine gave me some free 1 5/8" shorty unequal length headers. Unfortunately I can't tell you which brand they are. Just curious what kind of realistic hp gains I've made. Car has only 62k, is stock other than the headers, off-road H pipe and flowmaster super 44 mufflers.

I'm looking for some headers for my 1990LX convertible. I'll be having my friend install them and he has access to a lift. Are there any fitment issues with the long tube Headers? Will the existing exhaust have to be modified? If I choose to go with short tubes equal or unequal length...

I'm trying to steer away from any plastic parts. I have not yet looked into repairing my current radiator. If it's less than or approximately the same price as basic replacement aluminum radiator I'll do that. Any ideas on about how much it is to repair a copper/brass radiator. At the moment...

I'm looking for an OEM replacement for my leaking copper/brass radiator. I am having difficulties finding a copper/brass replacement. Which brands of aluminum radiator will bolt right in without modification. The car is a stock manual 1990 convertible.

Hey fellow Islander! Could I ask how much Realspeed got for the installation and tuning?

I've recently experienced some intermittent problems with my HID headlights. At first one would go out and then both. Turns out it was just a loose connection. Now both lights work fine. But now I am experiencing the HID lights not going off even when turning off the ignition. I had to...

Kumho Ecsta 245/50 ZR16.

Hey guys. I spoke to the previous owner and found the only modifications made to the car were 3.55 gears and Super 44 Flowmasters. I was just wondering what kind of performance increase over stock that would give me. I believe the stock 7Up managed a 0-60 time of 6.4sec and a 1/4 of 14.4sec.

Just wondering what you guys think of the work I did on the console. There was a hole left over from when they put in the aftermarket radio so instead of just putting a piece of plastic over it (or electrical tape like I bought it) I did this. It's a thin piece of wood wrapped in white vinyl...

I think in NY it's technically illegal to remove the 3rd brake light. Maybe I'll call a local mustang shop or DMV for details. Why no on the HIDs? My buddy wants to get me them for Xmas. I heard the BFG Comp 2s are good but that the road noise is unbearable. My tire size is 245/50z16...

Thanks for the help guys! I was driving earlier and I noticed how imprecise and lax the shifter can be at times. I'm definitely looking forward to putting in a short throw shifter for crisp shifts. I'm also planning on upgrading the lights to HID. The stock lights are weaker than a jar of...

I plan on keeping it nearly stock that's why I thought tires might be a nice lil way to get some more performance and keep its value. The shifter is stock and definitely has long throws. I definitely baby the car but on those rare occasions I'd like to line up at a stop light I'd like to have...

What do you guys think about the Nitto NT 555R?

It's a 5 speed. I have Kumho which spin way more than I'd like in 1st and 2nd. I had mickey Thompson ET Street radials on my vette which hooked up real well. I'm not looking for anything that extreme but def something that is going to help me launch off the line.

It's a weekend car and only used on sunny days. I don't plan on taking it to the track but id like some more performance and def more traction off the line.

It's stock other than a full flowmaster exhaust system. Or at least that's what I gather, as that the car is mint with 57k miles.

Hi everybody. Just bought a 1990 Lx 5.0 Convertible 7UP edition and looking for some suggestions on radials as well as some other basic upgrades.
