Minnesota Marauders

So if anyone is wondering where the Silver Marauder Burnsville Lincoln Mercury was storing all winter went I've got it. So far I've added a K&N filter...with ZERO noticable difference...Wired my own XM radio...four new speakers all around...also didn't get as much improvement as i was hoping for. The best mod so far is an HID headlight conversion. I lost the use of my highbeams but the road is lit up so well i never thinkg about needing them.

Anyway when are we all going to porky's?

Welcome! Glad to have you here.

We are due for a Porky's meeting. I am in for this Saturday afternoon/evening. How about from 4pm - 6pm or so? Anyone else?

I'll be in Michigan this Friday, leaving tomorrow night.

Lidio and his crew are going to install a new upgraded fuel pump along with the 90mm MAF I have set to go in...then a dynotune to set it all in place.

Then Sunday I'll be in Muncie, Indiana dragging with some other Marauders and ImpalaSS gents.

Next couple weekends look pretty good though. Lets set something up!

Not sure if I'll whip some butt...as there will be several other MM's and S/C'ed MM's ...but I'll be there to defend my title!!!

I'd actually love to see a MM vs. MM finish for the championship.....eh?

Grats! I am not sure how much longer I can hold out. There is a reason I have never accepted an offer to drive a S/C MM...

Try swapping out your Airbox and snorkel,
for a K&N Aircharger and a DryCharger.

Glad to see everyone is awake out there and reading post. I am able to do porky's this weekend from 4 to 6 if we could get more than two cars there that'd be great? if not i'll probably wait. Two cars would be too much like a date for me

PS looked at the aircharger just thought i'd start slow with just the filter one of those spur of the moment deals. still not sure how far i am going to take this car yet.

Well sorry guys I won't have another weekend off till friday the 24. I am from St. Paul but I am always on 35 E and W going to work. I am a Police Officer somewhere in Anoka County. So yes I've driven the cop car and no it is nothing nearly as fast. Though it is a lot easier to go fast with lights and sirens going. I am looking at the watts linkage lowering deal i saw posted here if anyone has any insight on that.

Another LE too...nice..... I'm LE somewhere in Rice County

Don't do the watts link first...do the control arms first. If I had it to do over I would have skipped the WL and done the CA only...but oh well...still corners like its on rails!

Just to clarify...what do you mean bit Watts Link "lowering"....Metco has the Watts Link...but I don't believe it will "lower" your car much.
