    I wont go into details about my experiences but I've only heard bad things and seen amazing things. If you were building cars out of your shop and still not getting the reps about it like MPH does you'd probably make up some b.s. stories to hurt their business too.... just saying. Waste of money to go anywhere else in my opinion.

    My car was tuned by Tim at MPH back when they had there old shop 1.5 years ago or so. It has always ran great tune wise. They tuned many of my friends boosted cars from cobras to a s197 novi gt. They do good work but people either love them or hate them, not for their work though. Tim and a few people are moving to chicago for a job opportunity and i think Jeff is opening his own shop or something.

    Again? I was just wondering where he was going because I want him to tune my car when I get done.

    And on top of it why are you getting mad that someone doesn't want to run a car that you dont own? If they dont wanna run go bang their sister and press on.
    lol, what i meant was, every time i'm by myself in her car, someone in a stang is tryin to get me to run against them. the car is a stock civic lowered 2inches with intake and exhaust. thats it. just a DD and i keep gettin these fools tryin to run against me. after awhile, it just gets annoying to be trying to go home, and i got folks trying to race me cause cause the civic has an aftermarket exhaust.

    i'm not gonna run a stock single cam against a stock v6/v8. i'm not gonna run a car that isn't mine and speakin of, i won't run on the street. last street run i had was a few years ago.

    not all folks are assclowns. just the DA's that was trying to pick on a car that doesn't stand a chance against them. the car is a DD. not a dragster. i think it might of seen vtec twice since the engine was rebuilt(80,000 miles ago). it barely revs past 4k rpms, not to mech. problems, more so driver won't let it.

    From what I'm seeing on quite a few Non-Mustang sites (I never actually ventured out from them until just a few months ago) is that some of my inbred Mustang Cousins can be big time DB's. Of course I was oblivious to most of this as I drive one as well. Just don't let them make you think we are all this way. Some of us, even a few on this board are actually nice responsible people!

    oh i know not all folks are like that. everyone is different its just most of the time its the mustang drivers with really bad attitudes think they can outrun anything and everything. its like they are trying to prove a point of who is the bigger assclown.


    you seem like a cool guy though. maybe i will drag my ass to a V meet and meet with you and some other folks.

    I'm lucky as I don't have much to prove, everyone knows I am the biggest assclown!

    I've never been to a V meet. I work Second shift so I'm always at work when they happen. Swing by the Newnan meet sometime!

    About 5 years ago I had an 87' Coupe Roller in my Garage. Got pissed off at it one day after trying to move it around on some dollies I made and I took a sawsall to it. Wish I still had that damn car. That was when I got out of Mustangs. Threw away alot of great stuff, new carpet, complete Grey Coupe AND Hatch interior. Body panels, spare doors, sunroof, 8.8 posi rearend, 10 holes. Shit tons of mustang stuff. Prob $1000 worth of stuff easy.

    At least you joined! Get in, do your time, look for ways to advance yourself. Enjoy it while you are in as my four years enlisted were by far some of the best/fun four years of my life.

    Just remember, do not trust your Recruiter, get everything in writing, basic is nothing but a head game with a physical side, and NEVER volunteer for anything. Oh and if you are asked if you like any type of sport in Basic, say no!

    That's because Tommy will charge you $2K for "tuning" that you will need to redo later. Believe me, I have proof of it. And the price will be closer to $9K when he presents you the bill if you have the shop install it. Lots of little add-ons.

    Just buy a Vortech kit and put it on yourself. It is not very hard.

    One of my friend's bought a supercharged S197 with a MPH tune. It was a poor tune at best. Car never ran right on their SCT tune, and I verified that it was their tune. Nemesis saw that car in person on the dyno.

    Higgins??? Save your money dude.
    And thats the truth they are shitty. I bought a 19# sample tube and had it for a week and then switched to 24's and they wouldn't let me return the sample tube so I just had to buy one for the 24's.

    Just remember, do not trust your Recruiter, get everything in writing, basic is nothing but a head game with a physical side, and NEVER volunteer for anything. Oh and if you are asked if you like any type of sport in Basic, say no!
    i got a 6 year enlistment term. shouldn't be all that bad though.


    everything i got, is in writing, my recruiter was actually straight up about everything. didn't bullshit me at all. everything he said, was what i got when i got down to MEPS to sign. he was really cool.

    i don't plan on volunteering for much anyway. and why no to all sports?

    In basic they will ask you if you enjoy bowling, next thing you know your cleaning toilets.

    lol i heard about it too. it was the one with the saleen twin screw blower on it? the car just about came apart on the dyno. then again, tim only produces great cars...

    dont get me wrong, they are pretty wicked with 2v's and alot of 4v's. keep them away from a 3v tho.
