Reply #75 – January 26, 2008, 01:30:26 PM The CVN guys say the "MZT" is the next mod I should do (M= Marauder or 04-06 CVPI P71 Airbox with larger MAF, Z= 04-06 CVPI P71 Zip Tube {from MAF to throttle body}, and T =Tune). Except it's $300 for the MZ parts and $400 for tuner and another $200 for the tune! All for what, 10HP maybe?I think I'd rather spend $100 on a EECV edit that I can use on my laptop to tune with, run E85 with a ton-of-timing, and a $230 K&N FIPK CAI. But then I start thinking of 125 shot wet kits for $200... Quote Selected

Not anywhere close to how I want the paint yet, but at least it's looking better and you can't see the "ghosts" of the State Police lettering/striping. Quote Selected

The new DD: 2001 Police Interceptor, new PICS on Page 11! Reply #84 – February 25, 2008, 07:47:06 AM That is a really nice car. So what was the switch on the floor really for? Quote Selected
The new DD: 2001 Police Interceptor, new PICS on Page 11! Reply #85 – February 25, 2008, 10:43:39 AM Thanks!The switch was for turning the brakelights off (or something like that, ask V8Demon, he knew). It wasn't connected in my car. Quote Selected
The new DD: 2001 Police Interceptor, new PICS on Page 11! Reply #86 – February 25, 2008, 10:53:57 AM FYI the GoRhino push bars are very nice. They even offer a full wraparound model that is pretty easy to install. Quote Selected

The new DD: 2001 Police Interceptor, new PICS on Page 11! Reply #88 – March 05, 2008, 08:55:07 PM Well in my quest to whip a 14 out of this boat on the second try I did a little work on it today. Installed the 180* T-stat (the original 192* Motorcraft was still in there!), FLUSHED the coolant (looked like somebody tried to mix the orange and green, I flushed with water, added green, and then a half bottle of Royal Purple's Purple ICE), and changed the serpentine belt (again, still on the original). I also crawled under the car and changed the fuel filter.Test drive went well, it comes up to temp quicker (because a 180* thermostat opens before a 192* duh ), and it does seem to have a little more get-up according to the butt-o-meter. So now all of the under-hood fluids are good to go and everything is ready for drag racing on Friday.I am still chasing the horn problem. It'll pop the horn/cruise fuse as soon as you touch the horn, but if you don't touch the horn the cruise won't blow the fuse. Any ideas? Quote Selected
