Tom,
After visiting the Dallas/Ft Worth megapolis, aren't you glad you live in rural IN? Way too many people there for me. My company is based out of Addison, which is a suburb N of Dallas proper.Usually go there about once a year. Not my kinda place to live
Hope you make it back north soon!

Well guys....I AM SPYDERIZED!!! I don't care if you are a young gun or an old fart like me but that pinion nut is a b***H coming off and a b***H going back on. It just takes leverage I guess. An 18 inch breaker bar with a 24 inch pipe plus I pulled my truck in the garage so I could put my feet against the front wheel so I wouldn't slide. I'm sure I won't be able to move tomorrow but it is done. Time for a beer!!

62 here this evening.Not good driving weather though.I haven't turned that traction control off in a few days now.
Scott, I'm gonna run the mid-mufflers this week yet, but I see the GTA's going on again.I'd forgotten what a Mustang with headers & bullit mufflers sounded like

I laughed out loud when I saw his post with the BMW photo.

Anybody get the magazine "Modified Mustangs"??? Read the article about the mustang called Warp 7. Claims 750hp and a 7 sec 1/4 at 212mph.????
A guy on ModularFords forum says he brought the guys stock engine and hes the biggest BS you ever saw. Claims he could do a wheelie with his car doing 70mph and flooring it. .

Hey Larry.......The little end of the year bonus fairy showed up today. 
I am ready to pull the trigger on those OBX longtubes. I know you have only had them on your car like 4 days but any reason I shouldn't pull the trigger tonight?? Got to go to the eye doctor at 5:30 but I want to get them ordered tonight. Also, how long did it take you to get them? They would need to get here by next Friday 12/21 since Karen and I are going to be on vacation the next week. I am also thinking real hard about those Brenspeed NSR camshafts also. How about any of you Midwestern guys interested in these cams that maybe we could approach Brent about a group buy. Let me know.

Scott if you want to order the OBX units but are leary about their arrival time, you can have them shipped to me. No, I won't put them on my car.

Scott,
No downside IMO. You know as well as me the few issues we had, no problems at all here.Definatly sounds gnarly.I still have to tweak down my idle. Got the rattle fixed, last hanger on the pass side.
Shipping took 12 days. I ordered day before Thanksgiving, shipped the following Monday & I got the following Tuesday,3rd. Holiday slowed it up some.
We should have it down pat now, could probably get yours on in 5hrs You gonna get some header bolts?

Somehow I could see them getting forever lost by the Big Brown Truck.
Maybe your need to order a set and we can have a header-puttin-on-party.Scott

I'm very interested in the NSR Cams from Brent too. I may go that route (instead of the Saleen) and just stick with the 75 shot. Maybe with a C&L Racer and a Throttle Body I might get close to 400 RWHP on the Giggle Juice. Maybe have Brent tweak the tune for a 100 shot.
