    Until someone starts re-manufactureing more parts, some of them have to die for others to live on.. Can't save 'em all.

    [​IMG][​IMG] sorry that some guys like to start picking on others here dude. I get excited sometimes my self, proof reading BEFORE posting helps me clear some of my goof ups.

    We love our cars here so I (I) would delete that video, not cool. Maybe some chevy or chrysler beatings instead:evilsmile .
    Good luck on your projects and BEAT THAT STANG!

    I love it!


    Welcome to the board young man. As far as removing emissions stuff to add speed, you won't see much gain with that on a stock 6. IF it were a built 6-meaning modified-the restrictions may make a difference. Visit the website one of the members advised you to check with.

    Good luck in your quest. Even a stock 5.0 runs pretty good-they handle pretty well too-another advantage he will have. If he has a 5 spd., he has another advantage over you.

    Oh, and be careful. Keep the competition on a track.

    Leave the video ... I didn't think it was that big a deal. If I found it I would have posted it also ....
