Anyone remember if it was the Sumitomo tires that lasted a decent while?

Mine have over 15k miles and don't show many sings of wear at all.

Funny story.. I was just leaving Saskatoon at 3am to drive to Taber, Alberta. I pull onto the double lane highway and there is a 99-04 V6(looked bone stock, still had the single exhaust) in front of me. Im in my truck so I just switch lanes and go to pass him(going 120km/h). I get to his quarter panel and he just guns it, so Im like alright he wants to party. I gun it and easily pull on him, I get up to 160km/h(stock top speed) and let off. Im easily a half truck on him at that point.

So he goes by me and IMMEDIATELY switches lanes, so I go to the other lane. Then he does it AGAIN. At that point I was like "WTF, is this guy retarded?" So he pulls into the far left lane to turn around and head back to the city. I go by and he starts flashing his brights at me.

I was thinking about turning around and asking for his number so I can do a rematch in my stang when I get home from work. But I decided to keep going. I wouldve put at least 2 cars on him in the stang.

My 6500+lb 300bhp truck pulled on a stock V6... haha.


I DO NOT ENCOURAGE STREET RACING, JUST KEEPING RETARDS IN THEIR PLACE.

Why the MP112?

He can't use the M112 plate, it doesn't fit right unless he has more modification done to it, which will add height. Nobody to date has made an MP112 version (that I know of).

From what I know, the MP112 off a GTP has a different casing to it, and is very different than the Cobra blower. And the Cobra inlet /TB doesn't match up to the casing.

I can't wait to see how you rewelded things to make it all match.

Hey guys quick question are the 4.0s in the 02-05 explorer the same as the mustang? Do they get a nice bump in power like the 4.0 stang from something like a cai and tune. Matt I know you probably know about them, pm me if you could with some info.

ps - congrats on the house Matt.
