Just so you don't go unresponded to.......
My Expy go 0-60 in a really long time. In fact, the harder I push on the gas pedel, the quicker my gas needle moves
Its the weirdest thing, can't figure that one out....

I haven't done the 0-60 time's myself, but with my homemade FIPK, 75mm TB and ported plenum (upper intake manifold), I have a quicker throttle response off the line. I read somewhere that if you re-gear to a higher differential, you'll have more lower-end power but you'll lose mpg's.

Hey golakers. How did you go about making a homemade FIPK? I could use better throttle responses the 4.6L is just a slug. I dont wanna regear. Im happy getting 16.5 mpg although that homemade fipk has my attention. I dont feel the need to shell out $200+ for one.

My Expy isn't fast, but I'd rather be a bit of a slowpoke than be a speed demon that has to fill up his tank 3X a week.

my dad had a 99 and we always had about 9 sec or less. that was with a jet computer chip, a tranny shift kit, an airraid cold air intake and throttlebody spacer. it had the 3.73's and the 5.4, but we had problems with ours and had to get rid of it
