let me run this by you guys.

I don't know about fuel injected cars HOWEVER...there comes a point when a chambered muffler IS a hinderence to the production of power and a flow-through muffler will net substantial gains. Just recently witness the removal of a spintech pro street muffler switched to a flow through magnaflow race muffler....over 20hp was picked up.

:TY: My friend is basically a parrot. if repeats whatever he hears and i usually set him straight. i remember reading an article in 5.0 mustang a few years ago, a muffler shootout on a mildly modded car. they tested everything from borla xr1 to super turbos. the realization reached afterwards was that all of them tested were within a +5/-5 hp tolerance to each other, same for torque. muffler choice seemed more for exhaust note than power level

Make sure you use a left handed metric Cresent wrench.

Flowmasters suck... they're way to baffled, they have no flow capability what so ever... I saw a show on Speed vision where they put different mufflers on a flow bench... i'll never put a set of Flowmasters on any of my cars ever... now, the Pypes violator, thats a different story :dancing6:


(Not that, that really had anything to do with the actual post, it just got me thinking...)

EXACTLY!

There ARE MANY exceptions but for your avg bolt on street daily driven mustang, this holds 100% true

here's something that no one will agree on.

[griffin7t1]

heyy guys my car just threw up on me this morning. i was fillin her up with deisel like i usually do every other day and i was going up the road and it died. i think its the prop valve on the skid plate but it was fine last week. when should i do a can of air change for my horn? its been 71000 miles? any comments? suggestions? :hammer:

 

[realitygt]

id say change the air in your horn its probably the reason why your car died.... :dunno: learn from our mistakes

 

[TxCobrA98]

no i dont think it was the horn, that sounds just like the problem i had last year. it ended up being my self lubricating gauge fluid sensor. its a pretty messy job but you can do it in a few hours.

try rotating the air in your tires. if that doesn't help, try kicking the flux capacitor. still no luck, well you could always retorque those new runflat wiper blades :thumb:

 

[TxCobrA98]

yeah those runflat wiper blades are nice. they are expensive though. but they definitely do an awesome job. i like how they have mini blowers built in to dry your windshield while they wipe the water off.

i heard if you take the motor out of your car and trade it for a top of the live scion motor with there cute little superchargers you can run a 16.4 on street tires! and pump gas. (with a tail wind)

 

[griffin7t1]

by the way that says with a tail wind at the end. i just made it too too small

as that one guy said in that one movie... "for those 32 seconds or less, I'm free" oh wait... maybe that wasn't EXACTLY what he said...

sounds like something an NPI GT guy would say :hammer:

 

[griffin7t1]

hahaha i like to pull up to people at redlights and when they look over at me i say to them "those train tracks up there are exactally a quarter mile.....on green, im going for it" they look at me like i have eleven heads cause im in the right turn only lane.


ohh its too funny. i got next to someone in a little red viper one time in the rimpro work van and i said it he laughed and took off.
