should do a search on granatelli. I'll think you'll find some interesting material.

Dude, I don't mean to be an ass.....but Granatelli is about the crapiest product you can ever put on your stang.

Obviously it's your car and you can do what you want with it, but I would seriously recommend that you take a step back and research lots of different forums before you start putting performance parts on your car.

You should get some granatelli control arms and some other suspension parts and call it a day.

I feel kinda sorry for this dude cause he is all proud of something he did to his stang and we all just start bashing the products. With that said I think we are just calling it how we see it. Anyway, I got a personal e-mail from him pretty much asking me if granatelli is so bad then why do dealers keep them of the shelves. I know why....cause they are cheap, but you get what you pay for.

This was just sent to me in my e-mail by jjgt06:

"grow up chump,no person needs a baby posting on here.nice primer gray
stang lol"

Ok, you want to call me out...fine, but do it out were everyone can see it. 1st off the golden shower remark was not direct at you but simply making light of your topic heading "golden find". I think golden shower is very fitting, GMS stuff is junk. Any person who has done an in depth job of researching parts could easily come to this conclusion. They rip of designs of more impressive manufacturers and make lame ass copies. Just like in the world of electronics, in the world of after market auto parts, you get what you pay for! Pay cheap, get cheap. period. So what does GMS offer....a golden shower, because your bound to get pissed on.
And as far as the baby thing goes, who is more childish the guy stating a fact with a twist humor, or the guy sending e-mails because his panties are in bunch. your move......

ah, I feel this going to either get shut down or head over to smack talk pretty soon. I wonder who else he sent an e-mail to crying about this. I felt sorry for the guy for a hot second...I hardly ever call someone out, but you know what screw it.....first off you're a moron for putting that crap on your nice mustang, and you're an even bigger moron for doing a lot of research and not coming to the conclusion that granatelli is pure crap....where were you researching, granatelli's website?

I like em, they have only been in for about 3 days now. so i'm in the break in period, I havent totally gotten into them yet. But 2nd gear is a bear now, it really pulls there. plus i use 5th way more around town, so i can why MPG would improve.
