    Welcome aboard.

    I like those badges too. Been looking for the SOHC ones but they don't stock them anymore at the site I was looking on.

    I was thinking about the Proguards too. Just wanted to see more input on them.
    Ebay is a gold mind for 4.6 badges

      I noticed a tad bit of diffrence with it installed like if I let off the throttle at hi speeds it sdesn't slow down as fast as it use to. I am also SCT tuned so that also plays with MPG factor. Nobody sells 91 and thats what the car is tuned for from factory. Now it's currently tuned for 93 proguard was fairly easy since I haven't lowered the car yet. It only took me like 20 mins to instal cause the ground I was laying on was still cold from the snow.

      As you wished... more info on the Proguard

            wreck it how? there has been no snow for some time now. I'm so tempted to put the rims back on but then 2 things happen.

            *It may snow 1 day after I put them on
            *I defeat the purpose of buying the snow tires.

            Merc is the daily driver cause the 6 is in pieces...going back stock for sale.

                Black Ice!!! Don't forget about black ice. When the pavement is below 32-degrees and that invisible layer of ice forms on top. I wrecked my Camaro years ago on black ice.

                  too late I wan't even accelerating. I was going up a hill and next thing I know i'm facing the guardrail. I realized there is a time to be fast and when not to.

                          yeah I only went sideways in the merc on the z rateds which was when the tires were on the way. since then the rear end stays planted untill I gave it the command no t to.

                          yep the 6 spun out alot more than the merk has. The suspention is designed to also rotate when lifting throttle in turns. other time was in a turn the damn ATX tranny doenshifted into vvt causing the michelins to loose grip and b line straight for the exact same pole as earler that race season. After getting the car I damn near drove it to get use to it in all weather but snow. The idea of a beater has come up but I have other thngs going on so keeping the 6 for a beater isn not finantialy right since the payments are more than the merc.

                            Kinda wierd that even with all the suspension work on the pro, the 3 wheel turns, I neve spun it out. Had it really far out a few time, but never all the way around. The 6's really like to turn around though.

                                No thats cool. I remember when I was the 1st to get the badge in my avitar for my 6 and a week later it became a jdm fad in japan! If you get then they came in 2 sets (4 total) Havn't really figured out where to put the other 2.
