Alex, just saw your IAT sensor question. I left mine in the stock location and never had an issue at all with the stock blower pulley. Some tuners have claimed you need to move it into the upper intake.
When I went to 'big' boost, I moved it to that back corner spot on the blower (where the stock Cobra 2nd IAT sensor is located). Worked just fine for me. No tapping or worries about hitting the stuff up front when running the lines for it.

hm.

so you left the stock IAT in place, and added the IAT2 in the cobra location?

Im going to try that first before drilling the plate.



Also- thoughts on cars?

I only ran one IAT sensor. Stock blower pulley (low PSI) I just left it in the inlet tube. There wasn't enough difference in air temp for me to justify moving it.

When I stepped up the PSI, I moved it to the back corner of the blower.

I'm looking at a few cars right now for DD duties (Audi A4/S4, BMW 3 series, MazdaSpeed 6). Out of the cars you're looking at, I'd do the Marauder if you can get a deal on one!

I love the Bullitts - purely for the intake design and better suspension/brake package right from Ford.

Tempting on the SVT offer. I think I found A/C and a back seat for the white one. Considered putting the black car up for sale soon as well... just throwing that out there.

yeah- seems (Amazingly) that the black ones are most common to find. who knew? mmmm shexy

Think about it! Ive got the title in hand, and just bought (like 5 min ago) a set of tires for the front. still needs a couple things, but it IS a 4 door

I love the black car.... but I'm racking up the miles on it doing a 60 mile each way hike to work (and running between 3 locations to boot). I feel bad doing that to such a rare car. Figured I'd see what I could get for it.

Plus the new RS3 Focus has really caught my eye.
