I went and checked the Fuse Box, and found that Fuse 64 was blown.(its a 20A fuse) So i went to AutoZone and bought me some fuses! when I went to replace it i put a new fuse in and Immediately, as soon as the fuse made contact to slot 64, it blew. I did this 3 more times and it just kept blowing the fuse instantly. So i figured "There must be a coin of some sort in the powerpoint!". But there's nothing....... I'm thinking it may just be a bad PowerPoint. Does anyone have any ideas? or the wiring Diagrams for the Powerpoint? Is the cruise control even linked to this? Everything else in the Mustang works.......:banghead ]]> 4.0L 2005+ Davebenroberts http://www.moddedmustangs.com/forums/4-0l-2005/144061-center-console-powerpoint-cruise-control-not-working.html http://www.moddedmustangs.com/forums/4-0l-2005/144046-i-need-beat-camaro.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 12:40:10 GMT hey guys I've been around here a little while now, I read pretty much every thread. Here is my dilemma my best friends cousin has this really snotty looking 1995 z28 Camaro. When I first got my mustang he was nice for a few weeks told me the car looked great but then after he heard me talking to my buddy about getting dual exhausts and a CAI put on went off. He started laughing at me telling me my v6 ain't shit, and it could never take his all-mighty shit box chevy.(not that chevys suck) and at first I just accepted. He keeps bringing it up and won't drop, it's to the point where I just won't go to my buddys house. I need to beat this guy. I don't know what his had done to it, from what I hear from it, it at least had some exhaust work done to it, and maybe a CAI, nothing massive.

Well I have assembled a shopping list for this adventure, thus far I plan on the following:

Steeda Cold Air Intake and SCT SF3 Custom Tuner Combo - $576
Pypes 409 Stainless Steel V6 Dual Pipe Conversion Kit - $450
Pypes Polished 304 Stainless Steel Shorty Headers - $290
BBK 70mm Throttle Body - $290
Ford Racing 8.8 in 31 Spline Traction - LOK Limited Slip Differential w/ Carbon Discs - $320
Ford Racing Gears - FRPP 4.10 Gears (8.8in) -$165
Motive Bearing Kit (8.8in) - $75

for a grand total of $2,166 USD before shipping taxes.

I would then plan on grabbing a SC or possibly a Turbo if I find a deal on one.

I think the above would be a good base, because not only would it give me some preformance gains, I think it would set up my car for when I want to add some F/I and maybe Nitro.

any opinions on the tentative setup? potential how much hp/torque would I be pushing? any other items I should consider? anything I should swap out?


btw my car is 2010 v6 auto coupe base. ]]> 4.0L 2005+ http://www.moddedmustangs.com/forums/4-0l-2005/144046-i-need-beat-camaro.html http://www.moddedmustangs.com/forums/4-0l-2005/143619-clutch-problem.html Mon, 16 Nov 2009 04:00:12 GMT Ok i've got a 5 speed and whenever i'm out of gear and the car is rolling the car revs to about 2200 rpm and then drops to idle and then does it again and again until the car is stopped. Also I sometimes have trouble getting out of first gear. Sometimes when i go to park I'll have the clutch to the floor and in first gear and it bogs like it's going to die and one time it did die.

With everything above it leaves one happy kid driving his car!
Really the only mod left to do is change the gt/cs to the 4.0/SC vinyl. Which will be a winter thing.

My lower grill must have gotten loosened up from a recent "curbing" on a parking space cement stop thingy (what ever you call them) and came off while driving. Its lost forever. I do plan at some point getting a GT take off fromt bumber but im not ready for it.

Does anyone know where I can get a cheep replacement?
