    The 2018 Mustang is Here - Full Details Inside

    THIS!!! THIS RIGHT HERE!!!! Remember Fords marketing objective for the Mustang HAS to be the 25 - 35 y.o. demographic. That's where you hook people in for life hopefully and that's a group that is hyper conscious to innovation and new technology . Solid rear axle and a clunky T5 transmission...

    The 2018 Mustang is Here - Full Details Inside

    I like the styling update though I'm not a huge fan of that orange/yellow color ( I recall someone referring to it as "nuclear banana" on the Focus ST ). I think the new styling ques will look best on dark colors like deep blue or gray w/ black splitter offsetting the color. That being said...

    So I just came in from checking something under the hood of my Cobra and when I pulled the hood release the bracket that holds the cable in place on the driver's side kick panel broke off in my hand! :eek: Just wondering if anyone else has had this happen or if there are any instructions on...

    Thinking about getting the SCT iTSX to go w/ my Nexus 7 Android tablet but I was reading some of the reviews on the Google Play store and there seem to be a lot of complaints about connectivity issues and bugs...

    Is the Focus ST FFV capable?

    I'm considering trading my Jeep for a Focus ST next year so I've been doing a good bit of research on them. I'm also a fan of E85 so I'm curious if the ST has E85 tune potential? Seems like it would be a good fit for the eco-boost engine especially given the gains some of the tuners are...

    ALMS + Grand AM merging?

    Don't know of there are a lot of sports car racing fans here but I've been following this American Le Mans Series and Grand AM merger this morning and it looks like it's being almost universally panned by the fans. From what I've seen on FaceBook and Twitter so far it's looking like the ALMS...

    Where to d/l eeceditor?

    Looking to install eeceditor and tune Moates Quarter Horse but the download instructions on the Moates page don't make any sense: EEC Editor Software from Paul Booth There doesn't seem to be any links at the bottom of the page to download the software, just the drop down for buying the...

    Trouble w/ MM&FF & 5.0 subscription . . .

    Hey folks, I know a lot of you subscribe to MM & FF and 5.0 mags and I'm wondering has anyone else had the following issues ( and how it got resolved )? So back in February ( yeah FEBRUARY, it was a Valentines gift ) my wife ordered me a one year subscription deal to each mag for the "low...

    Don Gottlieb's "Big Red" Camaro

    While I'm squarely a Mustang guy I've always liked this car b/c of the obvious passion that's gone into creating and driving the car. I remember first reading about it back in 80's in Hot Rod Magazine and it's what initially got me interested in the Silver State Classic. Looks like there's...

    '13 GT500 picks up 50/50 w/ Lund tune!

    . . . sorry if it's a repost but I just got this video link in StangTV e-mail today: 2013 Shelby GT500 Custom Tune Dyno - YouTube! This car is just scary good! Seems like every new story/development w/ this car just twists the dagger a bit harder on the bow tie boys and their also ran ZL1...

    Name the Pony & Cobra movement?

    Hey mods, I started a thread b/c I was curious if the Mustang Pony & Cobra had ever been given nick-names like the Corvette Racing "Jake" symbol, "Stryker" for the Viper folks, "Leaper" from Jaguar, etc. It turns out apparently not and I think that's a shame, our beloved pony is one of the...

    Does the mustang pony emblem have a name?

    I've been into Mustangs for about 10 years and I've been wondering about this recently mostly because it seems like the Mustang pony would have a name but I've never heard or seen it mentioned anywhere? I did a google search and besides coming up w/ dozens of sites where people had name their...

    More "FAIL" for the ZL-1!

    . . . forgive if it's a repost, this is the first time I've seen. The bow tie boys seem to have more issues, no way I'd touch a first run of this car: Camaro ZL1 Production Stopped Over "Quality" Issue

    Dish Network dropped the Velocity Channel?!

    I have Dish Network and the only other dedicated automotive channel besides Speed was the Velocity channel ( formerly HD Theater ) on channel # 364. Earlier today I was the Meccum auto auction on Velocity and then turned the tv off. This after noon I come back to find Velocity is gone and...

    Will the '13 GT500 be the Boss 429 of this era?

    So of course there's been a ton of talk about the 2013 GT500 and how it's going to be a pinnacle achievement. After watching the Barrett-Jackson & Meccum auto auctions the past couple of weeks I got to thinking would it be likely that the '13 GT500 might be the Boss 429 Mustang of our...

    Anyone tried SCT's new iTSX tunner?

    I know this just hit the market at SEMA this year but I'm curious has anyone tried SCT's iTSX tuner yet? I'm curious if this works like Advantage III software or more like an X2/X3 where you essentially buy a mail order tune from a tuner and then the iTSX lets you adjust some of the parms...

    Bad CV joint?

    There's a strange clicking noise coming from the area of the right rear and I'm wondering if a CV joint is going bad? Anyone else had a CV joint go bad, what does it sound like? Where can you get replacements?

    New Ford Ranger

    I'm sure the repost police will show up and tell me I'm "sooooo 20 minutes ago" b/c nothing is really new here for more than 15 secs . . . but it's the first time I'd seen it sooo: New Ford Ranger redesign I dunno about the looks, kinda seems like a Subaru Baja and an F-150 mated and this...

    Lightning MAF question?

    Hey folks I put a 90mm Lightning MAF on my '01 Cobra and then I heard that it may not have an integrated IAT sensor ( I know, I should have researched that ahead of time )? I've been working on an E85 tune but my car has been silly rich even on that tune, just wondering if the possible lack of...

    Converting to speed density?

    Been reading up on tuning and just finished a section on MAF sensors vs MAP sensors. Frankly it seems like MAP sensors are a lot easier to work w/ and you don't have worry possible intake restrictions of the MAF housing, the ever present possibility of "pegging" the MAF in hi-po applications...

    EFI University / EFI101?

    Lightning 90mm MAF vs 03/04 90mm MAF?

    This has probably been covered here guys so I apologize up front. It's a pretty simple question but I did a search and couldn't find what I needed so . . . What's the difference between a 90mm Lightning MAF and a 90mm 03/04 MAF? Don Lasota is setting up an E85 tune for me and when I told...

    Lightning 90mm MAF vs 03/04 90mm MAF?

    What's the difference between a 90mm Lightning MAF and a 90mm 03/04 MAF? Don Lasota is setting up an E85 tune for me and when I told him I had a 90mm MAF he needed to know which one I had. I didn't even know they were different? Is the MAF transfer function different? Would one work...
