just wait till obdIII comes out...were all f'ed.

mr p, you now have an ss nutswinger in chicago !!!! im new to the gm hi-perf. scene, right now just a cai, muffler, hypertech... do you know if the hypertech deletes the torque control crap?? which shift kit would you recommend, which vendors for that and the servos (vette)??

ive got 3 alloys that are in great shape, and one alloy that has an impact crack on the inner lip. got a quote for $85 to repair it, email me if youre interested [email protected]

great guy to deal with, 2 thumbs in the air for this dude!

how do you know what the trouble codes are???? ive got an engine code, my hypertech only tells me what the code is numerically, not what it stands for and my manuals dont tell me either. i think its a p0455 or something like that?? any help?

62k on my truck, was repaired by previous owner at about 30k. 60655 chicago [email protected]

ive got one i might part with if the price were right.... [email protected] if interested.

rivierakid is half right, half wrong. a shift kit dollar for dollar is not the best modification you can do. however, by installing a shift kit you are doing a few things (generally speaking) you are/can raise shift points so the trans will shift higher in the powerband, not always what you want, but it usually doesnt hurt. "reprogramming" the transmission to engage the shift solenoids/servos to more or less "slap" the bands instead of "rubbing" the bands, which DOES increase transmission life, the life of the bands and clutches, respectively, the hardparts of the transmission may or may not hold up very long depending on usage/shift kit installed. increasing line pressure which is one of the main points of a shift kit. increasing line pressure will usually result in firmer shifts. for someone just starting out i would recommend a cold air intake. cheap and easy to install. depending on how fast you want to go, you can always add a quality cat-back system, which is more for sound/looks than performance, but if you are looking to see a real difference on your truck bolt on a set of long tubes, and tune your pcm accordingly.

ive got one for sale, new in box (installed but never used) name a price!

i ditched the whole d.b.w. switch/window switch and went with a microswitch onder the pedal... much easier install. btw, ive still got the nos window/wot switch and it is for sale!!!

what is a reasonable amount ??

youll notice a big difference. i had a 3" powercat on my old truck and it helps out a lot....still smog legal but hands down the best cat ive ever used.

water in a combustion chamber will cause a bent rod pretty quick. however, water can get through a paper filter too. that and n.v.h is why there is so much ducting in our intake tracts.

normally i would agree, i had both fm50's and fm40's at one point in time on my r/t and they sound bad-ass, but the magnaflow kit came on my truck when i bought it, and i think it sounds good, and it gets lots of compliments. a little too "fluffy" sounding for my taste as i love the flowmaster sound, but they do sound pretty good.

after a few more weeks of the truck, im definitely interested in keeping the stock deck in there...it sounds pretty decent, just needs some bass. i was going to do the fiberglass box route, but i dont have time till these mustangs are out of the driveway...maybe ill take a dive at work and take a few months off LOL. ive got 2 10" jl's in small truck boxes and ive got amps, but would like to switch amps... all i need is these pac-24 dealies and i should be all set.... thanx for the reply!!!

wow youre from oak forest??? i wouldnt mind having a 20" spare and a back-up rim..... if youve still got them email me [email protected], and/or call me john 773-206-1968 im at like 111th and pulaski....if youre selling as cheap as your starting price was, ill pick them up

whats up guys...ive got an 03 with the bose system and no onstar. im adding subs but want to keep the factory in dash 6 disc. i need to get adaptors to get signal wires to the amplifier, i'd prefer to convert them to rca cables, but if line level is all thats available ill make it work. any suggestions??? also, if i replace the door speakers, what ohm speakers should i replace them with to to work with the factory head unit???

ive got 2 big jl 10's in truck boxes mocked up under my seat (i do not have time to build a 'glass box right now)....they fit, boxes are a bit under the 0.8 cf mark but theyll sound tight. i definitely think 4 subs is excessive...theres not a whole lot of air to move around in the truck....its more for shock value, but if thats what youre after, more power to you!

i might do lines, hawk seems like a quality product, and as far as rotors, i still dont know who ill try. i tried some jcwhitney slotted/drilled on my dakota and they fell apart 2000 miles from my house. not fun. you get what you pay for, im not looking for the cheapest, but i dont want a lot of flash either, just a good quality set of matched fronts/rears.

ebay can have good stuff, but i'd be really careful with their brake products. if its a wholesaler, by all means, go for it. but if its a no-name newcomer, be very careful. they will use the correct molds/dies/ but inferior metals to make a fatter bottom line. i know im stating the obvious, but use caution!

' ive got 52k and need brakes theyre squealing....funny, they didnt squeal when i left the dealer 2 weeks ago what pads/rotors did you use?

ive been out of the truck scene for about a year, but this sss is a curse. ive had it two weeks, and already the mod bug has hit. i need new brakes already, i knew that when i bought it so im not upset. dont want to go to big rotor kits or anything, just looking for a good set of front and rear rotors and a quality, long wearing pad. any manufacturers/vendors you guys have had good luck with??? anyone to stay away from???

i can do it for you, and belltech is the way to go. ive installed more than a few. pm or email if interested. located in the south suburbs of chicago, would probably need the truck for a few days, depending on other factors. if not i can refer you to a few other places if interested.

is this in an extended cab?? ive had the truck just a shade under two weeks and im absolutely in love. im going to use a dynotune nitrous kit, ive heard nothing but the best of them, how much is your pcm with tune running these days?? also, want a cold air kit, anyone you recommend or to stay away from?? are you spraying off the line or once you get out a little ways?? how are your 60' times?? and lastly, is there anyone making a direct bolt in valve body and/or servos for our trucks?? newbie question, but the trans doesnt have to come out to change servos correct?? thanks a lot guys, really looking forward to some quick times. i poured about 13 grand into my r/t just to get 13.1's....boy was i barking up the wrong tree. ps- in 03, what are the specs on internals??? forged or cast, etc etc, compression?? thanks guys. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> yeap, im still a newbie to the silvie ss. are they all extended cab? i thought that only 03 was awd, im probably misinformed. It's an SS which is extended cab AWD. Brian at Pcmforless did the tune (for nitrous) I spray it right off the line, my 60' times have been 1.8 - 1.9. As for trany questions you may want to ask zippy on here he has the mods for our trannies. I have not had any problems yet <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
