but...... shhhhhh I'll tell you a secret......






My new Meth. Kit comes in today for it. :)
So I will be putting that on tonight. But I don't think I will get it tuned before the weekend. Got a pretty busy weekend lined up thus far.....

Nice cars. Both look very clean.

Thanks for all the kind words guys. I think I better put up some more info so that you can get a better feel for what the two cars are.



Details on the 92 LX:

The 92 LX, is not as clean as it seems.
It's just a daily driver, and the color makes it photo well.

Stone Stock motor,
Stock gear,
Stock interior,
Stock tranny,
Stock Airbox,
Doesn't even have window tint.

Current Mods:
Has off-road h-pipe, and MAC Cat back.
ROH 17" Wheels
Intrax Lowering springs (they suck, bad)
Clear turn signals

Now you are gonna hate me for this.....
But here are the things I have in the garage WAITING to go on the car.

GT-40 Intake
GT-40 Heads
ProCharger D1SC set up for 10psi for starters
42lb injectors
Extra Tranny.
Full Stereo system (Sub, Components, Multi-Amps, Cap, Ect)
New "graphite" colored carpet. (Darker then factory, will match dash better)

I am just waiting on a couple of parts before I start the install.
- Cam Shaft
- one piece input shaft
- torque converter.

I don't want to put all the goodies on, until I have everything. Since this car is my daily driver, I don't want it "down" to long.

Yes the car is a AOD. I wanted an Auto, cause I like drinking coffee on my way to work.



Details on the 93 Cobra

I bought this car from the original owner. (He was a older retired gentle man)
Car sat in a climate controlled garage for 13 years!!!!
It has never once in it's life seen a rain drop, snow, or even a puddle.
It's only been washed a handful of times in it's life. Even the insides of the wheels are clean. Not to mention until I bought it, it has NEVER sat in a parking lot. To say it's "clean" is the understatement of the year.

It's an original black on black car (1 of 448)
I have ever single piece of paperwork for the car.
- build sheet
- svt certificate
- orginal window sticker
- sales documents
- every oil change, tire pressure check, receipt.

Current Mods are the following:

GT-40 "X" Alumin heads
Comp Cam
Vortech S Trim
BTM, FMU, 36lb injectors with matching MAF
4 white faced gauges (Boost, Fuel, Temp,Oil Press)
Full Nitto Tire package with drag radials
Power Slot Rotors

Mods the I will be putting on this weekend:

Snow performance Meth injection kit. (It arrives today) :)




SO there ya go,

Although the picture and lighting does a decent job, it still can't do it justice on how clean that **** car. You make a lot of mustang enthusiasts jealous with that car. I know its on my list of a dream garage.

Thanks for the warm welcome all of ya.....

I know, I know it's been forever.......

I honestly been out of the "lifestyle" forever. Kinda sat back and didn't do ANYTHING with cars for about a year. All of my cars, truck, and bike where all running. And I didn't want to mess with any of them. So I kinda just lived life, and went to a lot of local concerts, drank a lot of beer, and went on a lot of dates. (Heck I only went to the track 2 times all of last year, both times because of work)

So with that being said, I REALLY want to get back into the Mustang Scene.
Shows, cruise nights, and hang out with all you Mustang nuts more!!!!!


Well that about wraps it up!, talk to ya later dudes.

The Meth kit went on the Vortech'ed Cobra. (Since she is None-Intercooled)

The ProCharger isn't on the teal car yet. I am still waiting on Cam, Converter, imput shaft, and ARP hardware and gaskets. THEN it will all go on.



Teal Lx= Daily Driver
Cobra = Shows, and babied

Oh please. You know you'd rock it. SVO motor and drivetrain. Shorten an 8.8 rear end so it can be rwd. No one would see it coming. :smilielol:

Everyone knows you'd never own a blower. You're too afraid of boost. Remember. Sheesh!

Ohhh, I'm sure I'll go back to it sometime, it will get boring kickin the shit out of blower cars in this midwest heat on the nitrious, I may get bored from winning all the Vamp races!:shrug: :smilielol:

Oh, and why don't you get started on research for blowers for the Camaro coming out late next year! When I go boost again, it will be on a LSx car!:2up:

I'd be a little more worried than relying on the summer heat to take us blower guys down if I were you. Maybe you should check out the meth thread.

Ahh Phooey! Meth = Temporary Band-aid. :smilielol:
Oh wait, what if the pump stops?? Boooom Bitch!
What if you run out? Booom Bitch!!
What if you forget to turn it on? Boooom Bitch!
What if your boost controller fails? Boooom Bitch!
Yadi yadi Yadi, all it is, is one more thing that could fail and blow shit up! :smilielol:


Nitrious.........if you run out, you just run rich and slow!

Flame away fellas, I'm going to bed!! :smilielol: :wave1:

What if my fuel pump started to fail
What if my fuel filter got clogged
What if something got stuck in 1 injector
What if my MAF got something in it, and it started reading lean

There is always something that can and will go bad.
I don't find a meth kit being anymore complicated then a water to air intercooler that involves a pump and holding tank.

Air to air will always be the most simple, and well then you might as well go with a big Heads and Cam motor and stay N/A if you want really simple.

Carb'd N/A :) Then you don't have much to worry about. :)
