I can't wait to unleash my turbo monster this summer. Four or five turbo stangs cruising is a sound to behold indeed!

Hmmmm, I'm not too sure about how that would sound. I have a pair of stainless Ultra Flows and I wanted the car as quiet as possible. The wastegate will definitely be plugged into the downpipe within the next couple of weeks as. I'm going to play with the IAC, TPS voltage and MAF clocking this weekend to make her run better. I've also got to hook up both my O2 Sensors, any idea on where I should place them???? My crossover pipe has 1 o2 sensor in it but I dont have it hooked up. I need to know where to place them both. Any recommendations on which Motorcraft plugs I should use???
THanks.

I blew my headgasket on the weekend. Lesson learned, DO NOT RUN OLCO GAS!!!!!!! Or at least carry a bottle of octane booster, cuz their supreme gas stinks! Now I need to find some decent heads cuz I may as well if I'm doing my headgaskets again.

I had no choice, I almost ran out of gas downtown and the only station close by was the Olco

Sorry for the delay Stangseller I was away on vacation the past 6 days. I would like to see your plumbing to determine where to put your O2 sensor. That sucks about the head gaskets. Oh well lesson learned. I am not crazy about Sunoco either. I would dump those plugs all together and run NGK. Although I know some heads like the Edelbrocks need different length plugs be sure to check your depth before you put them on. Oh and by the way, the straight pipe would be more quiet than a muffler filled with gates.
