WTF? Adjustable compression? Mr. "I think if I can adjust my compression a little more" is FULL OF ****. I bet his Solar Boost Compressor was malfuntioning causing his spark plugs to detonate and advance his timing wheel which significantly slowed his driveshaft RPMs...

NO, No....his flux capacitor caused the detonation.

He must be one of thoses guys that believes the hp claims that are advertised with aftermarket stuff. HMMM, it's got 310 HP from Ford, catback is 10HP, midpipe is 15HP, pulleys are 10 HP and predator is good for 15HP, yup I'm making 360 HP and cannot be beat. Go kill him ( and yes the auto's in Mustangs suck bad)

UPDATE.....he came across my thread on a local stang site and contacted me. His car does have a shift kit with a manual valve body, off road x pipe, a k&n, and a 1" spacer on his "ram air." He went to the track last night and said he ran a 13.1 but wasn't hooking very well. He said it was his second time to the track and last time he ran similar times.

That is 'respectable', for someone going out their second time.......

Hmmm...that's not entirely true I guess. What if the tune
is so jacked that you detonate and the motor lets go...resulting
in zero compression?

The Auto Mach's are, on average, a 1/2 second slower than the M5 Mach's. I really wish that they would have only made Mach's with M5's because the auto's make us look bad. I guess the girls need to be able to drive too.

About a month ago. I was getting some 'fun' things installed, and came across a problem.......radiator support was bent. I had to argue with the dealership to pay 1500 in repairs. Good thing I know the lemon/sales laws...they never disclosed it to me, eventhough it was noted on their safety inspection. Should be done today...then the fun begins. Should have it back on Mon/Tues.

The fun thing is this new CAI that makes a STRANGE whistling noise...
