I take it as the lack of replies, no one this forum has a clue, do you only bolt on shiny bits cos someone else has them ?, do you realey know what the shiny bits do ? this seems typical of all forums i look on, even been to shows where they boast about what they have had do by other people, saw one post on here "How do i remove the radiator" its simple, get a haynes manuel and learn to read.

Nice way to introduce yourself and ask for advice!

It's Friday night, maybe the people with the answers are out somewhere and not on the internet!

You've also posted it in the wrong section... try general car discussion.

Personally i think the Ford scene is one of the biggest where people DO actually do most of the work on their own cars, it's just most of us aren't stupid enough to risk our engines (that have more than likely cost alot to build) going bang by trying to set up and dick about with fuelling & tuning when were not the experts and would rather pay a pro to do a "propa job!"

Plus if you had waited a bit until a tuner sees this or bumped the thread back up to the top (without acting a bit of a cock because you didn't get a response within 24 hours) for the night time crew one of the tuners may have actually responded! I know Jano from OKC is always very helpful in pointing people in the right direction for one, as is Stu. People on forums aren't here to just answer randomers off the street questions, it's a community too, you get back what you put in

Nice way to introduce yourself and get a descent response
