The C4 from a V8 will not fit for obvious reasons. But if you search hard enough you just might find a Pinto with a C4. It will bolt up but according to a ranger site I visited recently, it isn't a drop in swap. My suggestion is if you want a better transmission and are going to go through...

Ok thank you for some real responces. The fact is my car is going to be a show winner, not will hopefully, will. If you disagree then stop on by my neck of the woods and see what competition I have. I want the works, the system, the mobile video, the game system, the car looks, and the...

Ok, what about the "perfect" set up. Perfect meaning it was made for exactly what I want and does what I want and nothing more nothing less. The 2 10's facing the cabin from the trunk with ports coming into the cabin under the passenger seats of my car. The 15 facing skyward in the spare tire...

I've been told that I shouldn't mix sub sizes. I would like to know what the real problem is with mixing say 2 Brahma 10's and 1 Brahma 15? That is the system I want. I personally have gotten sick of 12's. I have a 15 and am borrowing 2 10's. They aren't in my car, I don't have anything to...

See that's what I thought, because the site says that all that is needed is the wire harness from the donor and everything plugs in. Hopefully it will be a short winter for me, I wanna get that beast in there. Thanx for your help. Can't wait to do this!

Hey thanks the help. I knew it wouldn't be THAT easy. The site I got the info from is reliable, but I think it was a little underwritten. The reason I want to goto 5.0 is because, well, that is the type of person I am. I like the engine and the power it produces now, but for me, being as...

Nope, none, its they same chassis. Ford was extremely future smart back then, they made all of there good cars the same chassis, the fox chassis. So all I have to do is swap everything from one car to the other. Its one of the most popular mods for my car....putting in the V8. Believe me...

I'm getting rid of my 4-cyl turbo in my 84 Cougar XR7. I already have the donor and most of what I need to perform the mod. The donor is an 8?, I think it's an 88, Ford LTD. My question is, is there anyone on here that has done this mod or similar? Like a Ford 6 cylinder to a V8. Ford to...

And I can't exactly put more power into it. I don't have the money to buy new drivers because I blew the one I have because I went over RMS and close to max. So I have to be conservative with the equipment I have.

Alright no, I don't have bass boost, and no my gains aren't maxed. It does it in my house too, when I can't have gains or bass boost for just that speaker, in this case the sub. So no I'm not a lame ass that knows nothing. I just don't know why there is an added noise.

I'd have to say my dad's Onkyo floorstanding speakers. The 12 inch woofers were made of a plastic material that was translucient. They are about 12 years old and they finally started to go, the left side went just a couple months ago. They made some nice bass for being that old. Especially...

Yeah, I know what you mean. I have an Orion XTR 15" and a Pioneer X262 amp. When I have it playing some boomy song, I can "hear" the cone moving. I hear that over the bass notes. Of course until i close the trunk and sit in the car. But I dont know what it is, it just makes that noise.

I had 2 PA 8" subs once, had them in my surround sound speakers in my room. They were ok, nothing special. I then sold them to some kid that was my brother's best friend. But before I ditched them, I hooked them to my amp in my car and a modified dual 12 enclosure. They were decent. I know...

I know what he said, but I also know what he meant. Circuit City sells Type-E and Type-R. Also Apline doesn't make a Type-R SVC. They are all DVC, so if the sub he is selling is a 4-ohm svc, then it is either the S or the E. From Circuit City it would be the E. So I did make a mistake, I...

Does anyone know of any place that sells some kind of multiport conversion kit? I hate the throttle body in my Cougar, it takes too much power away and causes the turbo to kick in too much. I want to gain much HP and save some gas in the process.
