Re: FS: Jensen 7-Inch Flip Screen DVD/CD/MP3/etc.

DOES NOT SKIP!!! (Even while watching movies..... while under boost).
Wow! I'm impressed! I have a heck of a time hanging on to my car when accelerating under boost. I'm certainly not skilled enough to watch movies at the same time! :D You da man!

Re: Ever want your first car back?

I'm showing my age. My 1st car was a 1960 Chevy Impala 2 door hardtop with a factory 348 & 4 speed. :D What a tank compared to the SVTF!

Re: ERRRR AHHHHHHHHH

I agree with the Soul_Hammer. I think we should kill all of the @#&% drivers (except for us, of course :) ). None of them deserve to live. Die, scumbag pigs! Die!!!!!!!!!!! Or is it possible that you are a bit over the top? You are seriously upset about this, and it isn't even severe (no one wa...

Re: ERRRR AHHHHHHHHH

Wow! Lotsa F-bombers! I guess this isn't a G-Rated forum. That aside, it is a bummer when stuff like this happens. Fortunatly it isn't structural damage. With a good body shop, you should be good as new (minus an insurance deductable, of course). Hope it works out well for you. Looks like a really ...

Hood Latch Works Hard When Cold

I've tried everything, including generous lubrication of the latch assembly, and dripping (lots of) oil into the end of the cable to lubricate it. But when it gets cold, this thing is a bugger to operate. After a car wash, it usually will freeze, and will not open (you cannot pull the release lever)...

Re: Tune For SVTF With JRSC+BBK

Steve, Greetings to you too! The throttle body is the original SVT unit (no mods). The BBK kit supplied a different MAF and new (larger) injectors (along with a new fuel rail). My biggest concern is that this stumble will somehow damage the engine. Ford Racing said that it would not damage the engin...

Re: Tune For SVTF With JRSC+BBK

Regarding wideband - no, I don't have one.
Thanks for the reference about Danny at DB Performance. I'll give him a call.

Tune For SVTF With JRSC+BBK

Hello, MN Focus people. I have an '04 SVTF with a Jackson Racing Supercharger + the Big Boost Kit (JRSC+BBK). The kit came with new calibration courtesy of Ford Racing. My car runs great, and has more power than I know what to do with (HINT: You cannot floor it in 1st gear - even from a roll - witho...
