    Not anymore, a good cat back is over $500.

    Did you really think someone would ask that? I know text doesn't convey the conversation beautifully, but still. You can do better than that I've seen you do it.

    Sounds like you are running a good drag tire. I was on Toyo radials.

    The Dyno guy probably pulled the plug im talking about, the word is when the front tires are stationary and the back are rotating the CPU has a fit. The plug is on the driver fender right by the air box. its just a looped wire. I pulled mine to see what happens and all the traction control was disabled (on the dash it showed disabled). I havent been back to the strip to try it out yet.
    They most likely just pulled fuse #62 for the dyno rather than unplugging anything.

    Never had any interference up over 800whp.

    I went to Cedar Creek Lake drag strip last night (1/8th mile) Best time was an 8.09. The damn computer kept pulling power even with advanced trac off in Drag mode. it would hit 3rd or 4 th (sometimes in 1st and 2nd) and just fall on its face after a little wheel spin. At some point I read that the 6G mustang computer will still interfere with the advanced trac turned off, and my track expierence confirmed this. I found few threads about disabling the nannies fully by pulling a plug under the hood. I am stoked to get out there again and try running with this plug unplugged.

    There was one run where it shifted into 4th and lost a little traction and I thought I broke something. My foot was on the floor and it wasn't doing shit....no pedal what so ever. I let out and looked around, pressed the pedal again and the car proceeded to accelerate again.




    FYI for anyone interested. I would love to hear back from anyone unplugging this plug at the drag strip. It will be a little while until I can make it to the Dragstrip again.

    The only person I ever put on my ignore (that I remember) was NayNay... I just couldn't take the trolling. However we are facebook friends and he's cool, no issues, wish he had been that way on here all the time. Gasser, man recently I've been debating putting him on my ignore list as I just can't consume that level of stupidity on a regular basis.

    Just for starters, it’s 2 chassis platforms and a standard IRS away from the Fox. It also makes more than double the power and typically won’t try to kill you in light rain conditions.
    Fox Body and 5k(7.5k for inflation, maybe) still whoops that ass though.

    Have you ridden in one? It's not even close.

    I did it myself. The grill itself is from Customcargrills.com. I cut out the stock shit and put that mesh behind it.
