Hit up one of our veteran members 4liter6. Ask eddie about his DS. There was an article in a recent mag about it too. He is a real stand up guy.

My next is to change gears and tlok.
I have a auto so I'm thinking 3:73.
Then hopefully a ds.
Just need Obama to sign for the stimulis package.

Default Stupid Ford...

This seems like a no brainer mod that Ford should have included to begin with!

Their car could have been .2-.3 faster in the 1/4 with this simple, not that expensive mod especially if you subtract the cost of the stock DS.

And I hope the stimulus package is more than the measly 600 dollars that we rec'd in the past. If they can give 25 billion to the big 3 why not a few hundred thousand to the people of this great nation. Now that would stimulate the economy!

Sorry O.T.

ha ha yeah oh wait im canadian... ok so but as for the gears why not? it would hurt there precious fuel economy rating and the DS would not hide any drivetrain issues as the factory one does

Went with Powerhouse one piece aluminum DS about 8 months ago.
It's a little expensive but a good feeling Mod.....Seems to rev alot freer & smoother..!!
And, no vibration issues with this make.

I have the Shaftmasters, great product. The car accelerates much quicker, and no DS vibration. The difference is startling when you put the aluminum DS in.
