wheel hop and performance upgrades ?
hello everyone, i just drove home a mustang last night i have'nt had one of these since i was 19. i'm 30 now and wow these cars are still just as fun to me now as they were 11years ago. i have a couple questions if anyone can help me out. it's a 92gt notchie, it's has header, cam, and flow master exhaust. othere then that i dont know what els was done to it. it idles kinda ruff and the guy told me it needed an o2 sensor. where is the o2 sensor on this car? i'm use to them being on the exhaust mainfolds and ..... headers so i dont know lol no i'm not a gear head. just know enough to take it in when i break it after trying to fix it also it wheel hops REALLY bad. it's a 5speed manual with a cobra clutch and b&m short throw shifter.... not even sure what that means but thats what he told me. any idea's on how to stop the wheel hop? thanks

The O2 Sensors should be on the exhaust by the headers(in the header collecter).
I know you could put in a 5 link and adjust it. Or you could put a few hundred extra pounds under the hood.
I wish my car had wheel hop...

for wheel hop, like adder said, get a good set of upper and lower control arms from UPR for 200 bucks....problem solved.(should be at least)
02 sensors are about.....6 inches down the H pipe from where it connects to the headers. its on the downpipe itself just before it goes under the car. you'll see them stickin out of the exhaust pipe.
and the horse power tv episode they did the mustang suspension. i'm pretty sure it was adjustable 4 link suspension which isnt really needed considering the mustang geometry is already pretty dead on for traction. if your goin full race then it would be worth your time. street strip use.....way to much time and money spent doing 4 link.

i am pretty sure you dont know what this guy means when he says wheel hop. whell hop isnt the front tires coming off the ground (what you think), its when the rear tire hop up and down when lauching (lots of vibration). and to help this get Control arms upper and lowers, and check those quads, if you get upper and loer control arms get rid of the quads. and dont add weight "under the hood", lmao.
