    JLP vs JLT CAI

    So I've narrowed it down to these 2 intakes. I like the JLP box for avoiding the heat, except I've heard the box can rub on the hood, and I kind of like seeing the filter, since my truck is strictly fair weather. Plus they also sell the oil separators. JLP does have the ram air option though...

    Latest cold air intakes

    I'm just getting started on the mods and was wondering who has the latest in cold air intakes? Chickenears was my 1st pick, but they stopped production. JLP is my 2nd but I'm not so sure on the open box lid, unless it seals to the hood? I am looking for a ram air kit but FIPK, Airaid and...

    Door rattle

    Anybody else have a driver's side door rattle? I'll have to be clear about this first, the truck has 12k miles on it, and have had it since 2k, so it's pratically mint. I'm surprised about this rattle, that is only heard when the weather warms up. The door is very tightly latched on the striker...

    pinion angle

    So after installing my jlp shackles, I get a 20-30mph vibration even after the 180 shim rotation. I read all the threads on measuring, and checking mine it looks like -1 on the pinion and 5 on the shaft. Spicer recommends an operating angle of not more then 3 degrees, and I'm at 6. My questions...

    4" rear drop performance

    Either its all in my head or there is a slight change in handling from dropping the back down. As far as handling in a truck goes, it just feels like it stays square with less body roll around the corners. It actually measured out to be 3" at the bumper and 2" at the wheel. Also the 180...

    I'm not sure how it's possible, but I just saw a blue on white rip down the street. no pics yet, but I'm sure it's from the dealer just down the street. Has anyone heard of Canada getting theirs already? I'll probably head down there at lunch. Exhaust sounded thoaty and with a very smooth...

    Boss Shinoda rights to name

    Wasn't sure what forum to put this in but, did they get exclusive rights to the name? Or just the "Boss" with no numbers/letters following, like "Boss 302"?

    4wd Lightning project

    I'm sure this has been done but was wondering if someone can direct me to some info on it. I've come across a couple crashed 99 Lightings, and I'm curious as to how tricky it would be to transplant the powertrain into my 98 F-150 rc/fs. The only real grey area is whether there could be a...

    Ford Racing

    Has anyone heard of any new racing platform other then the Mustang platform? I know they never intended on using the GT for competition use, but the next generation after the production run was a possibility I heard. And they're really missing out in the ALMS series. They need to get into the...

    06/07 Gt

    I haven't heard any changes for the next 2 years of production. Will there be any adjustments? I'm not even sure what I would change. I assume the body would remain.

    GT-500 weight

    Has anyone heard any official weight? Did anyone catch the Hot Rod article with the 12 second GT? They dropped the GT's weight down to 3100lbs. "Simplify and add lightness. It's an old racing adage, and in the case of the new Mustang, these stock springs, shocks, coilover front struts, and...

    Official Performance Test

    Has there been any official tests on the GT yet? I know Ford did I high speed test on the Mulsanne straight, pulling 213 i think. Motor Trend, Car & Driver and Top Gear are the only others i know of.

    svt performance.com invasion

    So I'm not sure if this has been covered yet, but, why are there so many non-Ford owners on this message board? Are they just here to stir up some $h!t? I'm sure most of them claim to previously own an SVT but traded up because of disappointment. And is there a real SVT forum that's unmolested?

    05 Mustang vs 05 GTO poll

    Hey guys, is there any off-topic members in here? This is kinda childish I know, but there's a poll going on and the Mustang lead for most of the poll, but I think there were some chevy guys brought in to pad the poll. The GTO is leading 148 to 136. We need some support! Just register and go...

    Blue Oval News

    This maybe a long played out topic but I keep reading all these recalls and tsb's on BON. Have all of these been proven? The GT apparently has 3 tsb's now, not including the recall. Apparently the new Mustangs have a stop order because of the 'MyColor' instrumentation. And now both the 05...

    Analyzing the GT 5.4 (redline)

    Something really confuses me. I was reading the SAE technical specs, and it says they did a stress analysis on the connecting rods @ 7000rpm, and made some adjustment in the tapered shape of the small end of the rod, and decided on the proper steel. Now, the graphs show a projected number of...
