98 headers :(
how come they have no long tube headers for the 98 ?? all thy have is those short tube or whatever....and whats the speed limiter for my 98 and if i get the chip to remove the speed limiter on it then what will my 98 top out at if i ge the chip-and everything else stock...?
just wondering,no hurry
also um my auto tran. is kinda slippin on 2nd to 3rd gear and it cuts off the power after the engine gets warm(sometimes) lol its weird but uh i can get a rebuilt one from a friend for like 300 and i was wondering if i could do the install myself or if i would have better luck tryin to fix my trans. with havin a shop look at it and replace a module on it or something?i dont really trust any transmission shops in my area becuz they like to charge the fk outta people to just tell u whats wrong, and then they bs about that too.....lol..lemme know what yall think or if u have any experiences with this kind of problem

RE: 98 headers :(
No ecu modifier, as far as I am aware, will remove the top speed limitator. I also have a 98 and I bought the Diablo ecu modifier I can do only a limited amount of things with it due to the age of the ecu. 99-04's are a different story, you can remove the top speed. I have a question out right now on the topic and I will let you know what you can do when I find out anything. As far as long tube vs. short tube try v6stuff.com, and rpmoutlet.com, and mustangs unlimited.com, all of these sites have plenty of products, and rpmoutlet you can directly ask the company a question. Personally as far as your tranny is concered, I would compare rebuild cost vs. buying a rebuit tranny. Of course the best thing to do is to just buy a new transmission, that way there are no suprises. Also consider a performance transmission. If you plan to modify your car you may want to consider a performance tranny because they are built stronger and are set up differently for higher hps and better acceleration.
