Being that I've only lived in the continental US for just over a year now, I have his huge itch to just drive around and explore. California, not so much, that damn traffic is crazy, not to mention gas prices. Texas? Yes. Going to Houston next month for a night just to use up some Hyatt points...

When your opinion is in the minority around here, you should expect some back and forth banter. No one is arguing with you, we're just stating our opinions. No one is calling each other names, and no one is being pissed. You are the only one that's calling people names and being pissed.

That actually sounds pretty good for my needs. Just enough to make it fun for daily driving, and an intercooler would top it off nicely.

Aside from all of this, I'll be keeping my eye on this. Maybe it would be safe to say a 30HP and 50-60 ft-lbs gain??

I've had my car for a year and a half now and being bone stock I can tell you that you CAN feel a difference in power when the intercooler gets heatsoaked. Coming out of my complex onto the frontage road the first couple gears feel strong, but about 10 or so minutes into my drive in this 90...

I've actually argued this point with him on another thread of his and all I got was a PM stating to keep that opinion to myself or I'll be blocked. So, it's safe to say he's convinced that one is not needed unless you're going to track the car or whatever. Nothing you'll say will change his...

Just to clarify, this is a 2.0 N/A head or a 2.0 EcoBoost head?

Got the car registered, was only $197.50. Did my inspection and registration all in the same day. I had an appointment at the DMV so I was in and out in under 10 minutes. Easiest time I've ever had at a DMV, ever.

Keys stay in the little spot ahead of the shifter. I have a fob for the gate at my apartment complex so my keys have to stay outside of my pocket.

My ecoboost was 49 state only (Hawaii car) and I had to do smog when I registered my car in California. Also, at the dmv, I had to sign a form attesting that I was a former resident of X state or else they wouldn't register the car:

28, just started a career as a test analyst in the semiconductor industry, did security for 6 years before this. Also am a valet only days off. Great way to make some extra cash.

Another Hawaii native here. In Waikiki, everything Z06psi said is good. If you're looking for good steak d.k is really good, kinda pricey like Ruth's Chris but just as good. A lot of West side beaches are really nice. Nimitz beach in barbers point is a nice secluded spot if you don't want...

Isn't that fee for a car thats brand new being brought into the state by a nonresident? Whats the criteria for that fee?

Thank you. Some dude told me it was gonna cost me over $1k because Texas goes by vehicle value. I think thats only for residents bringing in cars purchased from other states right? I already paid $2500 to California when i moved there for sales tax because my car was 6 months old, i aint...

So i have to get my car registered already because my California tags expire the end of this month. How much am i looking at to register my car including inspection? Registering in Travis County. Thanks.

Hey all, Can anyone recommend me a good tint shop? I've had the car for a little over a year now and I know I should have gotten it done way before (stupid California laws) but I guess it's better late then never. Thanks.

Does anyone know or think if Ford will release a catted or catless downpipe for the EcoBoost Mustang? I know the ProCal tune is a pipe dream, just wondering if anyone had any inside info. Thanks.

After driving around Texas in this 100 degree heat i can feel how down on power the car is. I would vote for an Intercooler. Even driving through 118 degree heat my car has never gone above 212 degrees.

While i was moving a few weeks ago i registered 121 as the highest. That was passing Palm Springs and Blythe. Going through Phoenix was 120. Since I've been in Austin highest I've seen was 102.

Hey guys, new to Austin and Texas in general. I have a question about winter tires. Now, I've never experienced a winter below 40 degrees, and i don't know what to expect here. Does the temps in the central texas area get down to the point where i would need winter tires? I have the...
