    Realspeed's racecar @ Limerock

    I've got over an hour of in-car video from that day. Anybody who's ever been on-track like that knows that the video comes nowhere near conveying the true sense of speed, so watching me run fast laps with no traffic in front of me gets kind of boring on the video even though it was intense...

    throttle body spacer ?

    We saw some small but real gains from the spacer that goes under the throttle elbow on a 99-04 GT. So I'm not sayiing no spacer will ever work, just that the ones we tested on the 05+ v6 & v8 mustangs didn't work. Like was said, sometimes you have to experiment a little to see what works and...

    throttle body spacer ?

    I've tested two of them with two very different designs (one has a cross blade with angle blades and the other had the more typical swirl pattern machined around the outside diameter. Both of them were tested on a 2005 V6 mustang. Both of them lost 2 horsepower compared to the stock...

    irs questions

    I'm pretty sure the drift champion Vaughn Gittin has a solid rear axle in his Mustang. Of course that is based on a different rear suspension geometry from the '05+ mustang. But you can upgrade and get most of the posative qualities of the '05+ rear suspension by installing a steeda "5-link"...

    head gasket cost difference

    Things like that are common with Ford Racing. Last I checked the exact same Ford 3.73 gears that you can get through Ford Racing for less than $200 are $400 from the dealer. The Ford dealers could afford to give away every single car at cost if you came back to them for the service and the...

    Coil Over?

    I've tested various coils on the dyno over the years. I've never seen a power increase fom a coil(s) UNLESS the spark was weak enough to cause an OBVIOUS misfire with the old coil. If the car was running smooth at full throttle with the old coils then it won't pick up power with the new coils.

    ABS light and TCS light wont go off !!!

    ABS and Traction Control use the same wheel sensors. If any 1 of the 4 wheel-speed sensors doesn't work then both the ABS and Traction Control won't work.

    dynomax VT mufflers

    I put them on my '89 LX becasue I couldn't live with the 2 chamber Flowmasters droning for a half hour straight on my commute to work each day. So far I'm very happy with them. The've been on there about 6 months.

    ethanol question

    If you can find the original shop that tuned the car they can update the Stoichiomethric A/F ratio in the tune to compensate for the ethanol. Stoich for all gas is 14.65:1 Stoich for 10% ethanol is 14:09:1 If you have a air/fuel ratio gauge but it is not a "wideband" gauge it is useless for...

    check engine light need help

    Since you said it was speed sensative (over 75 mph), I would look for turbulent air blowing over the open-element filter of the cold-air-intake. Did the elanor kit you got include a new hood with some sort of ram-air duct or open front? We see this frequently with some of the larger...
