Thank you.

You know what I just realized if you get the long tube headers you X pipe will be different and cheaper. Chose the short pipe of your choice. Best to get SS.

Hey- white99
i got a 2002 gt, and i would like to know what u would do next? i got k&n induction, flowmaster mufflers, and h-pipe w/out cats.

i thought about getting headers, cuz im loud but i want fuckin loud. Now is there any way i can do it myself,with help duh. Do i have to get i tuner and have to tune it everytime i do something?

neckbonekat · February 11th, 2007, 04:46 AM

With those mods you should already have a tuner. You don't have to tune after every mod, but why would you not want to? The whole point of modding is to get the best performance out of your Stang. That is what an adjusted tune allows you to do. I'd hold off on a dyno tune until you get closer to where you want your car to be power wise or unless you get a big power adder.

Cool post, though i disagree that the MGW shifter is waaayyyyy better than tri-ax or steeda

You've never driven with an MGW shifter have you?

White99stang · February 14th, 2007, 02:39 PM

well the steeda is a tri-ax there buddy

mnrlgry99gt · February 20th, 2007, 09:53 PM

Xcal Ii ftw, I installed the 93 octane tune and maxed out the shift pressure points and when it shifts now I get kicked back into my seat in a sweet way. Advancing the timing as far as I could without getting detonation added a lot also.

fhinesley · February 22nd, 2007, 02:09 AM

I agreee\..nice post...I still have probs on a specific search though on this site

handyandy · April 1st, 2007, 12:56 AM

You should add MGW to the shifter parentheses recommended/example brands. I have heard nothing but GOOD things about MGW, no one ever complains and even people with tri ax and pro 5.0 who switched over have said that they like it better. Just heard its a great company and awesome shifter that the handle can rotate 360 degrees, etc...

afmustanglover · April 6th, 2007, 02:54 PM

are those mods in order... if not could someone straighten 'em out for me?

Smoothgrandmama · April 7th, 2007, 09:18 AM

i was wondering if you really needed all those periods?

yeah subframe connecters are the best, get some sway bars, and eibach lowering springs with 3.73 or 4.10 gears and youll be set for a while.

Temecula_GT · April 17th, 2007, 04:05 PM

I posted looking for an mod solution for automatic shifters. Didn't get any responses. The basic problem is that B&M's Console Hammer is listed as only supporting up to 2000 Stangs. Which seemed odd, so I called and got the same response "it'll fit won't matter if you're the only driver" meaning the gear indicator isn't compatible with 2001 and above consoles (?). Anyhow, since I got the idea from Sean Hyland I went to www.seanhylandmotorsports.com and found what I was looking for there: a B&M Console Hammer w/kit for 99-04 GTs.

afmustanglover · April 18th, 2007, 12:31 PM

where is the fun in driving an automatic, honestly people. come on...

grimwolf · May 16th, 2007, 09:38 PM

in regards to white99stang saying

". Upper plenum (Accufab, C&L, Dragon, Trick Flow)
6. Throttle bodie, wouldn't go with a 75mm unless you have heads and cams cause it can actually hurt you. (Accufab, MAC, FRPP, Dragon, Trick Flow) "

what do you mean it can hurt you? damage the engine or just hurt you as in you wont make as much power?

im asking because i have a 85mm c&l mas air meter and 75mm acufab tb and plenum. but i have yet to get heads and a cam.

White99stang · May 17th, 2007, 11:02 AM

ii meant power wise, more or less too much volume and not enough flow.
