    Cleaning my JLT air filter

    Ok i bought a used JLT CAI and was wondering what's best to use on cleaning it? Looked around on their website and only thing i can see is the typical spray cleaner kit. Wouldn't soap and water and letting sit in the sun for an afternoon work also? Just wanted a little input before i proceed.

Is this due to the LCA's or maybe even loose driveshaft bolts? Anyone else have this after installing LCA's? If so...

    Any major differences?

    A friend has a 2.7 pulley he's selling me and i wanted to know if there's really any major boost difference versus a 2.6? Do i absolutely HAVE to have the idler arm for the pulley swap?

    UPR lowering springs....any issues?

    Ok i just bought a set of lowering springs from UPR since the price was right and they're made by Eibach, but after noticing that they only have them for 05-09 mustangs and not specifically for gt500's i asked customer service if they are for them and so he called Eibach and asked them. He tells...

    Exactly how many miles?

    Can someone tell me exactly how many miles were on their 500 when the sc kicked on? From what i gather the sc doesn't come on until 10 or 12 miles or something like that? I wouldn't know since i bought mine with 125 miles on her. Not even sure it this is true or not, but was curious.
