    anyone ever have this situation?

    My car has been vibrating lately. Anything over 35 mph and I hear vibrating sounds from my dash and I can see the rearview mirror vibrating to the point that cars behind me look blurry. The road noise is also considerably louder then it used to be. Here is where is gets weird. If I'm turning...

    I got the car dynotuned at Brenspeed!

    Well today was the big day I got my car dyno tuned at Brenspeed so I can finally spray the N20. First was the NA runs. With all the mods in the sig I was expecting 330 to 340 rwhp bases off what I've read other people have gotten with similar mods. My number was 323 rwhp. I was a little...

    Need TPS help / nitrous not hitting

    Can I install a used steeda underdrive pulley?

    I just purchased a used Steeda underdrive pulley and it didn't come with the longer bolt they send you when you buy it new. All the write-ups and youtube videos I have watched say you have to replace the alternator stud assembly with an alternator bolt and washer that steeda puts with the kit...

    Ford racing intake manifold, CMDP or none of the above

    I've been holding off on the dyno tune for the nitrous on my car for months because it's not something I want to do twice and I wasn't sure if I was done with Bolton mods yet. So I made the decision to ditch the Spectre air intake and replace it with a JLT series 3 CAI. I just can't stand the...

    10 things I love and hate about my 3V Mustang

    I thought this would be a fun thread to do so here goes: Love: 1) Exterior looks fantastic 2) 3V V8 sounds amazing with cams and headers 3) Retro gauges look awesome 4) Easy motor to work on 5) Shifts good (I never miss a gear) 6) Clutch isn't too heavy 7) Insurance is cheap 8) Not too heavy...

    2007 GT500 or 2013 Boss 302

    Both could be had for low 30's so which one would you get and why? I love them both and can't decide which one's better.

    passenger side airbag off light came on

    I've got to ask because I don't normally believe in coincidences. Could this have somehow been caused by my hooking up nitrous, bottle heater, bottle pressure sensor, purge and NOS wot/window switch. I finished all the above wiring yesterday and as far as I can tell all went ok. Well other then...

    question about fuse box in the engine bay

    I'm at the tail end of installing a nitrous outlet plate kit with bottle heater, purge and NOS window switch. The arming switch & bottle heater switch need to be connected to a "key'd 12V source". I have them routed to my engine bay because I figured I could connect them to the positive terminal...

    Burning clutch smell when I top out 4th gear

    Is that normal? I'm assuming it's the stock clutch (I'm 2nd owner). My mods are in my sig but I haven't sprayed yet so this is happening with 320ish rwhp NA. If I go on a full run and take my car to 6,000+ rpm's in 4th gear I smell burning clutch as soon as I go into neutral and let off the...

    Thinking about buying a CDC classic or MMD chin spoiler

    A chin spoiler is not something I would normally do but I have extenuating circumstances. I was doing 45 MPH and a fricken raccoon ran right in my path. The good news is that the raccoon didn't suffer. The bad news is my front bumper cover did. The bottom of my bumper is cracked and hanging...

    Spark plug disaster! Need advise to save my motor

    My car has 59K miles and I needed to install HT0's for my N20. I bought some seafoam deep creek and followed the instructions from both online and youtube videos. I blew out all debree from the chambers and filled each with a little deep creep. Then I waited an hour and gave each one a quarter...

    What gauge wire should I be running for Nitrous switches?

    I bought a roll of 16 gauge red wire and a roll of 16 gauge black wire for my nitrous installation but now I'm wondering if I got the right gauge. There is a wiring harness for my solenoids and relay so a lot of that is all set. But I will be running the following: 12V power from bottle heater...

    What RPM should I shift at? Come weigh in!

    I'm looking for advice on what RPM's to set my window switch to and then what rpm to shift at. Mods are in sig but the main things are hot rod cams, LT headers and 100 shot through a wet plate kit. I know I'm going to set my window switch to 3000 rpm on. I'm thinking of 6100 rpm off and then...

    Desperately need nitrous wiring help. Anyone with experience please help!

    I think I made a mistake buying a used Nitrous kit for my 2007 Mustang GT. The person I bought the kit from is zero help because he claims he bought the kit from someone else and never installed it on his car because he changed his mind and decided to go turbo instead. First it's a Nitrous...

    Any negatives to running HT0's at .032 while NA?

    I'm installing a 100 shot wet kit on my car and I'm about to order some HT0 spark plugs. I will be mostly NA running around with just an occasional N20 run at the track. Is there any negatives to running the car 95% of the time on HT0's gapped at .032? Is there any negative to spraying a 100...

    Stupid question alert: Where does the WOT switch go?

    I just bought a used Nitrous plate kit from a member here and it's a Frankenstein setup. The bottle is ZEX, the plate is nitrous express, the bottle heater is NOS and the solenoids are induction solutions. I'm pretty sure I got most everything figured out on the installation except I don't...

    How are Zex Nirous systems holding up these days?

    I'm going to pull the trigger on either a Zex kit from Brenspeed or NX plate system from American Muscle (since Brenspeed only sells Zex for some reason). My goals for the car is 400-420 rwhp MAX and at least 11.9's in the quarter mile while sticking with the stock long block and stock fuel...

    Well my 07 GT is need of some new rear rotors. I've been searching but there is very little threads that discuss rotors and none were helpful. When I look at places like Brenspeed and American Muscle I see a variety of rotors in the $250-$350 a pair range. In the past I have always just...

    Help! car went into limp mode & threw 7 codes

    Let me start by premising this with what has been done recently. One week ago I installed hot rod cams and a Brenspeed 87 tune. The car drove fine and the cams sounded good. I ran the gas down to 10 miles till empty and then filled up with 93 octane gas and loaded the Brenspeed 93 octane tune...

    Hot Rod Cams are in! My install and review inside

    First of all let me say that I was nervous about installing cams because I never cracked open a motor before. But with the help of this writeup as well as a youtube video entitled "more mustang power with a cam upgrade": http://home.comcast.net/~cookpaging/hammeron/cams/hotrodcams.html I...

    Need help with cams installation

    I started installing my hot rod cams today and I have a question. I bought a torque wrench from harbor tools and freight which is good from 5-80 ft lbs of torque. Now I read in the installation guide that the bearing cap bolts need to be tightened to 89 inch pounds of torque. That's just under...

    As you can see from my sig I have 4.10 gears, LT's, ORH, magnaflow chambered muffler axelback and a crappy Spectre air filter. I just bought a set of hot rod cams and plan to order the JLT series 3 CAI with tuner pack from American Muscle with a pre-loaded Bama tune. My research seems to...

    Do you need to buy a hand held tuner to get a dyno tune?

    I am considering having Brenspeed install a set of detroit rockers NA cams and then tune the car for me. I was quoted $400 for a dyno tune but then I could swear he told me I still had to buy a hand held tuner from them for another $400. That's $800 to tune my car for a set of cams. WTF? Does...
