Not sure where you're located, but Phoenix Performance in PA, has a 4wd dyno and some great tuners like Kurt Rezzatano. FWIW, they also have a shock dyno, engine lab and a full fab shop.
Race buddy of mine had a S197 with a 100 shot of Nitrous oxide. He purchased a set of Yellow racing coilovers with camber plates for US$1000 and I'll be damned, If I screwed up, he would be on me in blink of an eye... Well not as fast as the... (see full post)
My pals hooked me up with a set of Predator valve covers! that engine was destined for another new build and used different cam (valve) covers. I have a 2012 gen 1 GT with Boss heads, what fasteners should i purchase? also do i need a gasket...
Nope, Let the process work. People will see that the requirements are not systemic and not real. Forcing manufacturing to change opposite the market does not work out well for the entity that imposes the regulations. Where will the power...
Would agree with the ford Performance setup as I have helped several friends get them and they had great results. But, have to disagree about having to spend more the $5K. Down here we have two S197 cars with the basic Cortex koni coilovers and... (see full post)

Why would you do this?
The stock rear brakes on S197s on up (actually about 93 and up) are plenty good with the right pads. Spend your money elsewhere.
Thats a pretty conservative tune with very few added HP. Not a fan of Bama canned tunes, they feel risky to me. Its much better to get a custom tune with some one who logs the car before, during and after the final tune. Shaun at AED is very... (see full post)
You can put together a Bilstein kit for about $1500, which is very reasonable. I really liked the basic cortex/koni setup for $2795 and later upgraded the shocks to DA for SA. The Cortex setup lets you hang with and beat Porsche GT4's so its... (see full post)
My MM camber plates only took me to -2.5 camber, but with BMR bolts top and bottom it increased to a max of -4.5. Never had a camber bolt slip after several years of racing including knocking a rear wheel off a GT4 with my front. That's with 315... (see full post)
