The wife and I recently took her parents out to dinner at a nice steakhouse for helping us out while our son was in the hospital. The bill came to $342 and we left $415 including the tip which is a little over 20%. I always tip at least 20% and have no issue doing so as long as the service...
I was wondering if the VMP throttle body is the only option for the gt500 inlet or if there was a less expensive option. I didn’t know if the Ford performance super cobra jet oval throttle body would work with that setup on a terminator.
I’m planning on getting a 2.3 with the gt500 inlet and...
I had an idea for a personal project the other day and need a black and white outline pic of the back of a new edge mustang, preferably a cobra. I have spent hours looking for one and the only image I can find is on a shirt and I need it in clip art in order to do what I want to do. So I’m...
A friend of mine is looking at a 93 cobra with 10500 miles and he wants to know what a decent price is for the car. It has a vortec supercharger, h pipe and flowmasters, hurst shifter and 3:73 gear and all stock parts come with the car. Let me know what you think. Thanks
I am in need of new rear tires and I’m having trouble deciding what to go with. I currently have MT et street 2 and loved everything about them except the tread life. I had them for 2-3 years but only put about 2-3k miles on them.
I don’t drive in the rain so wet traction isn’t a factor and I...
I changed the oil in my cobra the other day and noticed there was a small oil spot on the garage floor where it sat all winter. Once I got under the car I noticed that the whole under side of the engine and some of the transmission was coated with a thin film of oil. I want to clean it all off...
The BBK 62mm throttle body that was on my car when I bought it is pretty much junk so I’m replacing it with a Posi ported stock tb and plenum. So my question is do I just make the 2 hour drive and go back to Lidio at alternative auto to check the air fuel ratio or just drive 20 min to a local...
I picked up a stock throttle body pretty cheap and figured I'd make an attempt at porting it. Since posi took down his pics and tips I'm hoping I can get some pointers from someone who has experience.
When I bought my car 4 years ago it had a 62mm bbk throttle body on it and after about a year it started getting slightly stuck closed and has gotten worse over the last couple years. It's to the point where I can't stand it anymore and it's time for it to go.
The car is just lightly modded...
What's everyone paying per pound for nitrous these days? I just called the local shop where I get my bottle filled and it's $5 which is a $.50 increase from last year. Last year it went up $.50 so it seems to be a trend. Just curious if it's just that place or if that's everywhere
Last fall I did a pprv delete and after finishing it I took my car out to make sure everything was ok, it wasn't. When I got up to 4500 rpm the car fell on its face and would barely go over an idle. I noticed the intake tube was slightly off the throttle body so I thought it was pulling in...
I just got done doing a pprv delete and I used the gates fuel hose with fuel injection hose clamps and I went out for a trip around the block to make sure all was good. Well it wasnt, it ran fine until I got about 3 miles away and I took off from a stop and went to do a couple gear pull but when...
I was putting the wheels back on my car tonight and noticed there was about a 1/4" of movement side to side and up and down on the drivers side rear wheel. My car only has 20k miles so I didn't think it was at first but I am pretty confident that it's the wheel bearing.
So here's where my...
The last 2 times I have driven my car I noticed a hesitation when I get back on the throttle after a shift. I first noticed it when I was giving a friend a ride so I was driving it a little hard so when I drove it the other day I did a quick hit, shift, and back into the throttle real quick and...
I took my car to get an injector swap and nitrous tune from lidio at alternative auto in chesterfield Michigan and I couldn't be happier. Not only did they do the injector swap but they offered to clean up the birds nest on the drivers side of the supercharger which looks so much better.
I am...
I probably watched this 10+ times in a row. I don't know if the video can be embedded but here's the link.

My son is 3 and probably every other time I pick him up from the babysitters he tells me that another kid pushes him down and hits him with things. I really want to tell him to return the favor when the other kid does that but I don't want to teach him that fighting is the way to solve issues...
My dad just found out one of his heads is cracked so he needs a new one so if anyone has any or knows anyone that has one or a pair for sale let me know. Thanks
I am in the process of installing nitrous on my car and I was originally going to do a dry system but scrapped that idea and am now turning it into a wet system. I have everything ran and hooked up for the dry system and it is all hidden and I would like to keep it as inconspicuous as possible...
I just finished installing a dry kit on my car and I can't decide what size shot to go with. I was originally thinking 75 then I went to 100 but now I'm thinking less than 100. My car goes to the tuner in 2 weeks so I would like some input from ppl who have nitrous on their cars. I just have the...
The last 2x I have been to the track I have been trapping 119 but only running 12.0 with a best of 11.92. I have an 03 cobra with cai, 62mm tb, 2.75 pulley, offload x with magnaflow catback. I'm running 305/35/18 mt Et street with stock rear end and stock gears and have an mgw shifter. Just...
