    upgrading to boss 302 struts and ford racing springs

    Hi All, I found a good deal on Boss struts, shocks and Ford racing lowering P springs. The Struts are assembled with J&M Caster camber plates. I have an 07 GT Coupe. I noticed that C&C plates are year specific. I know that he is using the ones for an 11-14 v6/GT/boss 302. My question is, will...

    Long tube header questions

    Thanks for the replies. If I buy them I will probably be going with American Racing which I believe they use high quality stainless steel. I probably won't have them coated based on what you guys said and I think I read somewhere that American Racing advises against it actually. I'm not sure if...

    Long tube header questions

    Hey guys, I have my mind set on getting Long tubes but have a couple questions: 1) How prone are they to leaking over say 5 - 10 years if I get a good brand like American Racing or Kooks? 2)I noticed American racing and Kooks don't have a ceramic coating option. Do they need to be...

    I agree. I decided that I'm getting Long tube headers and a dyno tune at the dyno shop I was at.

    lol what if I told you i'm only 26? I've just always had a soft spot for the C6 Z06 because you get Ferrari performance at a fraction of the cost. I've liked it long before I bought my Mustang. There's no denying that it's a great bang for the buck.

    Pinging question

    Unfortunately I didn't get to see them as I had a shop do it but my mechanic said they were definitely the original ones and were pretty dirty. None of them broke though so that was good.

    Pinging question

    Hey guys sorry to bring this back up but I'm still having issues. So I finally got my plugs changed and the motor is still pinging. The plugs didn't make it ping less or more. My next course of action will be running another can of seafoam in the tank and then possibly also through the intake...

    Made the move from a 4.6 to a 5.0

    Congrats on the purchase! The Roush Axelbacks would be a great choice. Check out some sound clips of Borla Stingers or Ataks. Those are the two I'd be looking at if I had a 5.0.

    Air leaking between throttle body and intake coupler

    Thanks for the advice but i've since returned the intake and got a Roush unit instead that fits well. I had a mechanic see if he could stock the leak with the JLT unit before I returned it and something was off and just not fitting well.

    Kooks Long Tubes with kooks X-pipe/H-pipe

    Hey Grabber I have borla S types as well and was planning on getting american racing LTH and catted x/h pipe. With your setup, did you ever get pulled over for having a loud car?

    3v exhaust question

    I'll admit that I may be a bit biased since I have them, but I believe the best axel backs for the 3 valve are easily the Borla Stingers. My car didn't come with them, I bought them after watching probably 100 exhaust videos haha. They are loud though after they finally break in.

    Pinging question

    Update: Replaced fuel filter, cleaned throttle body and MAF sensor, still have pining. I'm still happy I did these things as it was still probably useful. Replaced Roush CAI with factory airbox and loaded stock tune, now I have very faint pinging, about the same amount from when I loaded the...

    Well that's something I hope I don't see.

    Pinging question

    Your 100% right. If it still pings after the plugs are replaced that's when i'll give up. And yeah I saw something written on the can about running the seafoam through a line. I did buy two cans so I may try that as well.

    O/R H pipe + tune details?

    The tune will turn off your rear 02 sensors which is why the CEL light won't pop up. If you live in a place with emissions, you may or may not pass because of your rear 02's showing up as "not ready" during the test. The tune should make the car perform better especially when it comes to...

    Pinging question

    Thanks 02sys. I'm shocked Costco gas is on that list! kallar68 I just checked and the Roush cai for the 5.0 doesn't require a tune. I think one way you can try to find out if your car has a tune is by test driving a completely stock 5.0 and comparing throttle response. Update: Received an...

    Pinging question

    Oh, I was always under the impression it was. In fact, someone from Bama recommended it to me. What would you consider a top tier fuel brand 02Sys? I tend to stick with Shell and Sunoco usually.

    Pinging question

    Thanks for the advice on the plugs guys. I bought some seafoam yesterday and my friend has the Lisle tool and we're gonna change them in 2 weeks. I just put 93 octane from a sunoco in my car. Only added 6 gallons to the 2 gallons that were already in the car(that was sunoco or shell). Gonna put...

    Pinging question

    I returned it to stock and I do still hear some faint split second rattling at 3000 and 4000 rpm at partial and WOT. I won't know anything till I datalog it like you mentioned redfirepearlgt. Bama sent me a request and I will take care of it this weekend. Now I'm thinking the noises were...

    Groaning sound when turning steering wheel

    Does it only make noise when you can't turn it anymore, like when you get to the furthest the steering wheel can turn too?

    Pinging question

    So I decided to try the revised 93 race tune just to see if the noise it made on the 87 tune was there with the 93 tune. It is there with the 93 tune and then some. I'm pretty sure it's ping. I think the sensors are sensing it as ping and retarding the timing which is why it only lasts a second...

    Pinging question

    Update: I received new tunes from BAMA and loaded the 87 tune. Car still makes noise at 3000 and 4000 RPM for a brief second. I'm really not sure if it's ping or not. I'm gonna have to wait and install the stock airbox this weekend and load the stock tune back on to be sure. If it still is...

    Pinging question

    Hi Everyone, So I installed a Roush CAI and a 93 race tune from BAMA. After a couple WOT pulls I noticed it was making a noise. While at WOT I would hear a metal rattling noise in the Mid - High RPM range. Is this pinging? I believe it is from what I have read. Anyway I switched to my BAMA...
