    Really Needing Some Help Here Guys. 08 GT - Running Awful.

    Alright gents, I'm about at my wits end. I've got an 08 GT and I've been battling some type of gremlin for a few months now. I'm going to start at the very beginning. This is going to be a long thread so bear with me. Back in March I installed my wotbox. Car didn't want to idle after I had...

    Best Place To Ground Wotbox

    Hey guys, I've got a wotbox. I already have it installed. I grounded it to the strut tower like the instructions recommended, however I had to extend the ground wire because the original was too short to reach. Anyway, my car has been acting weird. You can be driving along and the car will...

    1/8th Mile Woes: 2008 Gt

    Alright, I'm gonna try to stay on topic here and get straight to the point. My car is pissing me off lol. Last year I ran a best of 8.47. So far this year I can't get anything better than an 8.58 out of it. Last year's setup: 3.31 gears, Airaid cai, Pypes off-road x, BMR lca's and relocation...

    Wot Box Problems

    Hey guys, yesterday me and a friend of mine put my wot box in. Followed the instructions, all the solders held good and the only real problem we had was extending the ground wire, as it came WAY too short to reach the ground on the strut tower. Long story short, everything works perfectly. I...

    Odd 3v intake manifolds

    I've done some looking around and really haven't found much on this topic. I've seen the FRPP manifold and the new Holley, but what else is out there? I'm particularly interested in the possibility of the 5.4 3v intake, but I know it would probably have to be worked over. So let's hear some...

    Anybody run their car without the dust boot under the shifter?

    Put in a Hurst shifter the other day and now the damn rubber boot won't stay in place. Keeps coming up and getting wedged in weird places and getting on my nerves. Take it off or glue the fuck out of it?

    You're gonna laugh: Should I trade for a Focus ST?

    As the title suggests, I'm thinking of trading. I know everyone will probably think I'm a dumbass, but I have a car I'm still making payments on that basically only gets driven to the track and maybe when it's not raining since I don't trust drag radials. Not to mention that eventually I'm...

    08 Gt bent shifter or shift fork?

    I was at the track tonight making a few passes. I hotlapped the car a few times and on the last pass I came off the line hard. When I went to shift into 2nd, it grinded. Which in itself is nothing new. I'm still running the stock clutch and it's getting pretty weak. If the clutch pedal isn't...

    Slipping the clutch vs. Dumping the clutch

    What are the pros and cons of each? I know that side stepping at a high rpm is likely to wreak havoc on the driveshaft and axles, but is it worth the risk for the sake of better 60' times? I've been slipping the clutch at around 4800-5k and have a 2.09 60' to show for it, and an 8.77 1/8...

    08 Gt grinding 2nd after Et street install

    Hey guys, a few hours ago I jacked my car up and put on my new 15x8 Racestars and 275/50/15 et streets. Took it out and 2 out of 3 times the 1-2 shift grinded. The last time I just slammed it into gear without it grinding. With my old 18's and street tires, it would always bark or spin going...

    Jegs Sport Star II fitment

    Hey guys, Jegs is currently out of stock on the sport star 1. Which sucks because I have an order in for them. I'm wondering if the 15x8 sport star ii's will clear? Or if they're relatively the same dimensions as the 1's. 15X8, 5-4.5 bolt pattern, 5.5 bs. I've searched high and low and looked...

    The time has come for radials.

    Alright guys it's time. Tired of putting it off. I'm looking at getting some 15x8 Jegs Sport Stars for starters. Im wondering if I'll need a 1/4 inch spacer to clear the caliper. Ok, onto the second order of business. What tires should I run? M/t e.t streets? Nittos? Also, what size? 275/50/15...

    Suspension setup opinions for my 08 GT?

    Hey guys, I'm looking into changing my current suspension setup for something more drag oriented. The car is currently stock suspension wise except for some Eibach sportlines. I've searched around and to be honest am pretty confused about what I want. I'm looking to spend around 800 bucks. I'm...
