    Black smoke at WOT?

    So I went for a cruise with a friend today, and he tells me that any time I was running WOT and hit the higher rpm range, a puff of black smoke would come out of my exhaust. I was driving with the red key when this happened. I switched to the grey key it no longer happens. Anybody else...

    Do you still have the drilling template that comes with the rear wing? And does it come with all the hardware?

    2013 Boss: is this normal?

    302 Hi Pro:I appreciate the follow up. I don't have any new info yet though. Originally when I popped the code, I was running an Airaid CF intake with the venturi tube installed (no tune). I've run this intake for 4 years on two different Bosses and never had trouble. But to rule it out, I...

    2013 Boss: is this normal?

    Well is it normal for an 02 sensor to go out so early? And would there be any other symptoms? The exhaust popping is very pronounced, I'm thinking it's probably not normal. And Byronj, definitely not the battery. It's been happening for some time, and I actually just put in a brand new oem...

    2013 Boss: is this normal?

    Alright guys I need some more advice, tell me if this happens to any of you too. I have a 2013 Boss, all stock and no tune. Any time I disconnect the battery and start the car for the first time after, it starts out fine but then after a few seconds the idle starts fluctuating, the engine sounds...

    Help...2013 Boss first engine code P219A

    Hey guys I need some help diagnosing this: I have a 2013 Boss, all stock except for an Airaid PJ intake (no tune with the venturi tube in). I've run this intake on 2 Bosses over 4 years and never had an issue. Today I was just cruising and the ceck engine light came on. Read the code, came out...

    TMO's AUTO-BLiP Giveaway!

    I would love to have an Auto-Blip on my Boss. I like to race it on road courses, time attacks, and auto-x, I think it would be useful for all of these. Thanks for doing this giveaway!

    WHY are my Forgestars vibrating at speed??

    Hey guys I need some help. I finally got my Forgestar setup complete (F1419x10 front 19x11 rear), got my tires mounted (285/35/19 f and 305/35/19 r super sports) and had everything installed. Took it out on the highway and discovered they had an awful vibration at 70mph. Took them to a different...

    Preventing rust on underside?

    Is it alright to use touch up paint on the underside? In liquid form it's flammable and it is only a few inches from the exhaust. I'm assuming after it dries it won't be an issue.

    Preventing rust on underside?

    Hey guys, this is probably the dumbest question I'll ever ask on here, but: recently I found that something put a pretty good scrape on my car's underside on the frame rail. It went through the paint, and I don't want it to rust. What can I do to protect it from rusting? I just took an exterior...

    Got my wheel/tire setup installed, and the results are...puzzling

    They rub on both sides the same way, it doesn't appear to be an alignment issue. And yes, it frustrates me too, I don't know how these tires stay in production with sizing like this.

    Got my wheel/tire setup installed, and the results are...puzzling

    Yeah I don't understand how it's rubbing either. I'm going to take it back to the tire shop this week and have them measure the offset to make sure it is indeed correct. Like you guys, I have been told that the MPSS are to blame. However, when the tire techs looked at it, they told me that no...
