  1. What floor jacks do you guys use? (lowered 500's too)?

    I use a Harbor Freight jack. I've had it a few years and really like it. Yes, some swear off of Harbor Freight stuff, but this jack fits all of the things that I need it to do. At $239.00 not inexpensive.
  2. Happy New Year from Japan!!!

    Akemashite Omedetou, from a fellow Californian!
  3. Continental Extreme Sport 02 compared To /Michelin Pilot Sport 4s

    If we use your logic, Continental wouldn't have made a comparable tire at a price point which is $35.00 a tire cheaper than the Michelins, in the tire size I was looking at.
  4. Continental Extreme Sport 02 compared To /Michelin Pilot Sport 4s

    You laughed at me saving 8 dollars a tire. I guess you didn't read the above post above yours.
  5. Continental Extreme Sport 02 compared To /Michelin Pilot Sport 4s

    The 8 dollar savings is not what drove me to buying the Michelins and yes, I am a cheap bastard!. The fact that the Continentals are on backorder, made my decision to buy the Michelins and I need the tires now. Plus the usual price of the Pilot Sports is $460.00. I got them for $417.00 each. At...
  6. Continental Extreme Sport 02 compared To /Michelin Pilot Sport 4s

    I was going to give the Continentals a try, but the size I was looking for are back ordered. I got the Michelin Pilots and got them for 8 dollars a tire less than the Continentals. I'll give them a try when this set wears out. By that time though, hopefully another tire maker gives both Michelin...
  7. Thinking about Switching to a Whipple. Thoughts?

    I can't race from a dig to save my life. The Whipple just makes the tires break free even worse. I'd suspect for a driver with shit racing abilities like me, would benefit from a Centri. My 330WHP Fiesta St had the torque peak about 1100 RPMs later, which helped a bunch.
  8. Thinking about Switching to a Whipple. Thoughts?

    You can always try a car with a Roush or Ford Performance blower. Those will behave similat to the Whipple. Just to compare driveability differences. Good luck!
  9. Thinking about Switching to a Whipple. Thoughts?

    One thing to consider is, there is a big difference where the torque comes in. Your current set up has the peak torque come in later in the RPM range. The Whipple has the torque come in sooner in the RPM band. How your car behaves now, will be totally different with the Whipple. Since the FI...
  10. Possible boost leak? and boost calculation

    Check the torque of all of the clamps on the pressurized side of your pipes. Sounds like a small leak. When I had a duct leak, it sounded just like when you put a blade of grass between your fingers and blow.
  11. Michelin Pilot Sport 4S 325/30/19

    This tire is about an inch smaller in diameter than the original tire, so I will have to re-calibrate my speedometer. The current tire is about a third of an inch smaller in diameter from stock and using GPS, it's about 2 miles an hour off.
  12. Michelin Pilot Sport 4S 325/30/19

    No, I have a tire shop that I have been using for 26 years to mount and balance them, with wheels off the car. I have had a bad experience with a shop stripping a stud. Probably some kid using an impact gun to install rather than using a torque wrench. This was a few years ago and I decided to...
  13. Tire size recommendation

    I've got the CS-5 wheels on my car. I put the stock PP1 rear tires 275/40/19, on the front, since the tires only had a few K on them. I will go 285/35/19 or 275/35/19 on the fronts, when it comes time. On the rears, I first went with Pilot Sports in size 305/35/19. Well after around 20K miles, I...
  14. Michelin Pilot Sport 4S 325/30/19

    I just ordered a set of the tires, for my rears mentioned in the title from Walmart.com for $417.00. Typical price is usually around $460.00. Just thought I'd put this out there, in case anyone was going to buy these specific tires...
  15. Returning whipple 16 mustang to stock

    I'm not sure if this will help but, I'd reach out to Whipple and see if there is a copy of the installation instructions available for your kit. Look through the instructions to see what stock parts are removed and not re-installed for the Whipple kit installation. Then you'll know what parts...

  17. Best way to sell parts local?

    I'd also put them on your local Craigslist. GLWS.
  18. My car smell like gas station

    Pull the rear seat and check to see if there are any leaks coming from the pump to tank seal, fuel lines etc. If the fuel fumes are that strong. I'd definitely want to correct that as soon as possible, for health and fire reasons. Good luck.
