Ray, what's the significance of that yellow clone? It looks like it was shot at Mustangs by the Bay, though...?

Good morning gear heads!

My car focus today possibly replace the Kenne Bell CAI clamps with T-Bolt clamps. I bought these a while back but never installed them I need to see if I like the look. Also a visit to the local FORD dealer for some power steering fluid MERCON-ATF XT-2QDX.

Great Cali weather day for a drive.

Good luck Jed. I'm not sure about the weather here. Everything looks grey and muggy. Plus the car is happily asleep with 2 more coats of wax and a really good portercable buff job on her.

I have lots of extra T-Bolts if you need that I never returned to Hose Techniques.

I decided to ditch the look as being 'overkill'. Especially when I see 600+ hp cars using regular hose clamps.

Dealer parts dept is closed today. Autozone should hook you up!

I might kick start the beast today.

... maybe try to find the source of my squeaking pulley too.

^What he said!


I wish I lived in Cali I'd do it today! It's got 2 great gauges, intercooler, POLISHED, the GT500 pumps, and everything.

Includes-Paxton 2200 Polished Supercharger with air/air intercooler, GT500 fuel pumps, #39 injectors, autometer cobalt boost and wideband gauges w/ dual SOS pod. I am looking to sell it to someone local (near SoCal) so we can go to a local shop to do the swap. Everythings in great condition... $3,900

Ya that's why I said "possibly"

I'll call them but now that you mention it they are probably closed.
The ZONE it is!

Swing by! I'm cooking turkey sausages right now.

I'm trying to come to the dark side.

Will this unit work for an automatic ('cause he's got a manual)?

You'll just need the tuner and a dyno tune. Unless you already have the handheld tuner.

Good question....I see in some blower ads "Fits manual trans only" and some "for cars with automatc...."

Is it an actual "Fit" issue or is it that the auto trans can only take so much HP before it grenades so only the lower HP adders are reccomended?
