    Trading the Lightning for a 2004 Mach1

    Don't hate me. :( Do you think this is a bad move? I'm not really doing the trade to save on gas or anything, but this Mach1 gets twice the gas mileage, and my payments will be about $125 cheaper a month! :) Plus, it's an automatic 2004 screaming yellow (only 139 of those made). Should be...

    Is anybody using the Chickenears inlet tube?

    I think this tube looks better than most I have seen. Anybody running this? Includes new smooth Throttle Body Boot w/factory connections & Turbo hose w/clamps (S/S, of course). The new throttle body boot will connect to either the factory throttle body or any aftermarket oval single-blade...

    Only 8lbs of boost stock... could i hit 10 by...

    Doing the boost bypass. This question I know is so annoying, and old. But there are so many different sides to the story. All i'm asking, is if your truck was stock, and only hit 8 lbs of boost, did you do the boost bypass and move up to 10lbs of boost? I also know the gauges could be...

    Mass air meter... Rotate it to the top?

    Who has their sensor rotated to the top of the MAF? The reason I ask, is because on my previous cars, mustangs and cobras, there was always this trick to rotate the censor to the top (to where the plug part is on top, instead of on the side) and the car will run a tad more rich, opposed to...

    Quick! What is the best way to clean your engine compartment?

    Did the search button, pulled up all kinds of useless junk. LOL From experience, what is the best way to clean your engine compartment? You can't just spray water in there I would imagine. Done that before on my old cobra...and water got down around the spark plugs. Do you all just use a...

    FTVB has been installed...

    WOW...what a difference it made. It's weird because sometimes it shifts really hard from 1-2, and then sometimes it doesn't. That could vary though on how hard your accelerating I guess? :??: But it turned out nice!!!! No problems with shifting, going through the gears (ex: from...

    I'm wanting to lower the truck...

    The FRPP kit says it only lowers the truck 1" in the front and rear...and that's the main reason I want to lower the truck, is because the rear sits too high. Who sells a good 2"/4" drop? I don't want the truck to sit like a low rider, so i figured the 2/4 will look low, and sporty! But I also...
