That might be true. I just posted a review of the M&H racemasters that I put on today. There's no more wheel hop. I already bought the LCA's though.

how do you kike the M&H tires? was thinking about ordering the 325/50/17 for the track

menace07 · December 18th, 2007, 12:07 AM

cai and tune from brenspeed or bamachips, axle back exhaust of your choice(for pleasure only), 4.10 gears or spydershaft

TheUNZippee! · December 18th, 2007, 12:16 AM

I would get a cold air intake, a tuner with custom tunes, a shifter, and gears.

07bbb · December 18th, 2007, 12:21 AM

depends on if you are looking for dragstrip or track, short or long trips, 87 or 93 gas.

what do you want to do with it? Wide open possibilities here....

TheUNZippee! · December 18th, 2007, 12:22 AM

Oh, and welcome to MM.

Keegster08 · December 18th, 2007, 12:36 AM

I'm looking for mostly drag, and i want to get more horses overall. What can a shifter do for me? And thanks for the welcoming

TheUNZippee! · December 18th, 2007, 12:43 AM

Then llook for a 93 or 94 octane race tune from either

BamaChips Tuning

or

BRENSPEED, BBK BMR SCT STEEDA MAC PYPES SLP MUSTANG PERFORMANCE PARTS

An aftermarket shifter gives you far more superior shifting ability....of course I just realized I'm assuming you have a manual.

If you do, check out the unit from MGW LTD., INC. - CNC Machined and Turned Parts. Accessories for the Corvette, Mustang, PT Cruiser, SVT Lightning & F150 and Viper

06GTMustang89 · December 18th, 2007, 12:44 AM

Hurst Shifter FTW!!!!

TheUNZippee! · December 18th, 2007, 12:50 AM

MGW is an excellent unit with superior build quality and end user adjusta...adjustabili.....adjustab...... lots of turny thingies that you can turn.

06GTMustang89 · December 18th, 2007, 01:11 AM

Jucostud · December 18th, 2007, 04:03 AM

xcal 3 is better than xcal 2... people just haven't gotten used to it being out yet. it's only been out for a few months.
