Several ?'s

Figured I'd put them all in one post instead of each their own:

-Does anyone still have that pic of a fc with the 99+ stang gt wheels? And did anyone ever figure out if they bolt right on without the need of spacers?

-Does anyone have a write-up for the tb mod? And could you explain exactly what it accomplishes?

-Are s5's auxilary ports actuated by exhaust back pressure like s4's? I am pretty sure they aren't but just making sure.

-And finally isn't there a recall on s5's moving sealtbelt thing. If so do i just take it to the dealership and they fix it, or is it more involved?

Thanks.

Jeff

Yes there is a factory recall on the moving seatbelts for an S5. take it to the dealership and tell them there is a recall and they need to fix the belts. Anything else, I have no clue, but I would not put mustang wheels on an FC.

I know what your saying about the wheels, but if I remember they looked really good and are a bit bigger and wider than stock wheels.

the man to ask about the wheels is RETed over in the wheels/suspension section.......

the tb mod....is said to give you 3 hp and a shitty idle in cold climates.....not really sure about it though.

the s5 auxiliary ports are not controlled by backpressure.

and as answered, there was a recall on the seatbelts.

There is a right up for the TB mod thought i can't remember exactly where it is, you need to do a search for it. It doesn't really give you alot of HP, it mostly gives you a much better throttle response. The throttle will snap shut instead of idling down. The S5 aux ports are controlled by the air pump.
