Question couple random questions

i've been wondering,


-do any bolt-in roll cages work well?
-where can i get a woodgrain steering wheel for a '93 mustang?
-where can i get some nice racing seats that will fit a '93 GT without spending alot?
-what does traction-lock do?
-what is the stock gear ratio for a '93 GT?
-do fox mustangs have an electronically limited top speed?
-if so, does a flash-tuner take away a car's electronic top speed limit and rev limiter?
-are there any side-exit exhaust systems on the market for a fox mustang (probably has to be custom, huh)?
-this is buddy the elf, whats your favorite color

Some bolt in cages help a little bit, but it's no replacement for a good welded in cage.

Cheap seats from summit, but they look like ****.

Traction lock = Posi .... It means both wheels spin equally when you are accelerating.

Your gears are probably 3.08

No, fox mustangs do not have a limited top speed. The lack of power and gear on a stock fox limits top speed.

Why would you want to get rid of the rev limiter? It's to HELP prevent idiots from blowing motors. Your stock engine can't handle the RPMS past the rev limiter.

Unless you have an SN-95 SVO your car will look terrible with side exhaust. If you want to show off exhaust tips you should have gotten an LX.

IF you DO want to go side exit though there are a few different muffleres that have same side in and out.

flowmaster 80 series (built for camaro's)
spintech mufflers have a set

They do look like crap usually.

Keep in mind that if your state has any sort of vehicle inspection, side exit exhaust isnt legal unless its factory.

not true for all states, we have inspection here and the svo add on side exhaust is legal to pass here as long as tail/side pipes exit behind the door opening
