    Need a shop in the S.F. area or Marin County

    Well I don't know whether or not I want to get rid of my car or just build it up to the point where I'm happier with it... So I'm looking for a shop that can do; tranny rebuild and replace TOB, maybe header install, and suspension work/alignment. If the labor/parts are cheaper then trying to...

    Average labor cost for tie-rod ends

    so the tie rod ends are embarassing to listen to and when I hit potholes my car wants to go into the next lane. Just curious what an average rate would be to replace both the inner tie-rod ends. I could also use an alignment. thanks

    Efficient cruising range on the streets

    Well after 14 months of being out of the country I'm back with the cobra. After reading hundreds of gear threads I'm curious what you guys cruise around town at. Most of the streets around me are 25-35 MPH until I hit the freeway. Do you guys have a favorite RPM to keep it at when just...

    Pricing for a D1sc by itself

    So from reading others posts I've gathered that it's cheaper to upgrade the D1sc now instead of paying $1300 later. Now if I did choose to upgrade later does procharger need some serial number so they know that I've bought a kit? What stops people from just buying the unit on its own and...

    dyno graph stickies anywhere

    Just wondering if we could have a section where all the dyno graphs are in one place. (Sorry if there's already a thread on this and I've missed it) I know it would help me and other's make up their minds if I could see various other cars with different set ups with detailed info on what...

    Port the 01 lower with KB on top?

    My question must be too ridiculous since I'm having trouble getting answers so maybe you guys can help me out. Those of you with the KB kits, have any of you ported the lower that comes with it? I know having the intakes ported will help with NA numbers but not sure what the outcome is when...

    Why does my car seem so obese?

    When I originally bought the car it had been recently smogged and the guy gave me the reciept. The weight said 3750. I was thinking damn that's heavy, but maybe the weight was taken with the tech guy in the car. To make this shorter, just had it smogged again and it weighed in at exactly...

    Different question about boost and horsepower limits

    So I've been looking into different sc options and I'm wanting to have a set up where I'm making as much rwhp with the least amount of boost. Say 6 psi to start. The KB base kit recomends running 93 or higher oct if using a low restriction intake which might put me at 426rwhp and 6.5psi. (only...

    Keep getting fatal error when I search

    I'm trying to find more information about putting a whipple on a 99 cobra. I don't know if I would have to go through a similar process as the guys putting an eaton from an 03-04 on their 99,01. I keep narrowing down the search but still get this fatal error page.:shrug:

    Diablosport programmer for 99 V6 mustang

    I still have my tuner for when I had my 99 V6 and would like to finally sell it. This tuner allows you to adjust your timing and fuel maps, gear ratio, tire size, rev limits, what temp you want your fan to turn on, and anything else you can think of. However the only catch is that the tune is...

    Desperate. Need temporary work

    I'm a student about to get married in a couple months and would like to make some cash. Manpower, a temp agency in my area is useless. The problem is that I'll be leaving the country in June so nobody wants to hire me for a few weeks. I can do all the basic tune-ups, suspension, yard work...

    What's wrong with this picture?

    In searching for my exhaust leak I noticed that one of the bolts on the passenger side header is covered in oil. I don't know if i need new gaskets or if this is normal. I saw another guys post about his eaton installation and noticed how clean his block was and didn't have any oil...

    please verify turbo rumor

    Heard from a friend that an aftermarket turbocharged vehicle can be made street and smog legal if the turbo(s) are after the cats. I didn't believe him since I've seen guys pass smog with turbos but upon visual inspection they get failed. However these guys that eventually failed had the turbo...

    any reasonable dealerships in this area?

    so I need some work done on my car and I have to transfer the warranty from the previous owner into my name so I figured I'd take it to the dealership since it's capable of having a premium warranty. The dealership in Redwood City sucks.(at least that's my experience with them) They treat me...
