Bill,
I just wanted to let you know that I
received my 10% overdrive supercharger pulley today
and installed it. Everything lines up perfectly now
and I didn't have to modify anything.
This pulley is twice as light as the current
aluminum one I was trying to use (and here I thought
it was light). Looks like Super Coupe
Performance actually took the time and properly
engineered the part you sell. I'm glad I decided to
ditch that old one (from one of your competitors)
and buy yours!
Thanks again, Chris Homan

Bill,
I just want to thank
you for all your help on my Bird. I just got
done lowering it with the Vogtland 1.6" drop
springs, the poly spring isolators, and the short
rear sway bar end links I purchased.
It looks awesome.
Rides better to! Your help & advice on
the shocks was great I will definitely be ordering
from you again soon. I’ll be looking at the
rear subframe brace and the strut tower brace.
Thank you for your
help and keep up the great work.

Bill,
Today I finally got
around to installing the SCP Rear Cover Brace in my
'97 Bird. It went on slick and easy in about
20 minutes. Guys in the shop were commenting
about what a nice piece of work it was. No
tapping for the grade 8 bolts was required. Just a
true bolt on.
My best,
Al LeBouton

Hi Bill,
I just wanted to thank
you and to tell you that that was the fastest and
best service I ever received from an Internet order.
Your service was outstanding and I would definitely
order from you again if need be. Sorry it took
me so long to let you know I am really happy with my
purchase.
Thanks again and have
a great day. Fran Kaszowski
Also, thank you for
answering all of my sons (Dan) questions.

Hey Bill,
Just wanted to let
you know that I tried to fix my non-functioning
odometer/trip by replacing the complete speedometer
cluster twice and the Vehicle Speed Sensor. After
search the web for an answer for a while I ran
across your site and saw your new Odometer Repair
Kit for my car. I was not sure this was going
to work because of the previous failures with my
attempts, but I ordered the parts and followed the
complete instructions with pictures and I now have a
working odometer/trip.
Thanks,

Hi Bill,
I just wanted to let you know that I installed my
Art Carr AOD Manual/Automatic valve body that I
recently purchased from you and I LOVE IT.
I wrote and expressed
some concerns about not being able to lock out OD
but you're right, it's not an issue. I truly
can't believe the difference this has made in the
shift performance and quality feel of my
transmission. Of all my mods this one is
easily the single most noticeable mod that can be
made for the money and time it requires to install.
Nothing else even comes close. You'd think it
was an entirely different transmission.
Well, I know you
already know this stuff, but I just wanted to say
thanks and I appreciate your help with these things.
Thanks again,
Warren York

Dear Super Coupe
Performance,
I
purchased one the SCP '96-97 Ram-Air hoods and I
wanted to report that I think it is awesome. The
body shop that installed it told me they have seen
few fiberglass hoods with this much ease of fitment
and amount of quality. I had another fiberglass hood
before I purchased this one and there is no
comparison.
Bill @ SCP is great
to deal with and I will definitely be a returning
customer. Help support one of the few companies that
cater to the MN12 cars!

Bill,
Just wanted to let
you know how truly pleased with the results my car
has put out. To start with I had the car
dynoed back in Feb. of last year with just the
headers, high flow cats, and the 2 1/2"-3"-dual 2
1/2 system you offer. The results from that
run were at 204 RWHP, and 265 RWTQ. Since then
I have added the 9" conical air filter, 76mm MAFS,
3" Fresh Air Intake, 75mm T-Body, Magnum Powers
Inlet Plenum, "S" Port Blower, 38lb Fuel Injectors,
I/C Fan, 190LPH Fuel Pump, and your custom Chip with
93 octane performance tune. The car now stands
at 247 RWHP, and 299 RWTQ.
Once I had the
numbers, I definitely saw a need to change the
center of gravity and stiffen up the rear anti-sway
bar to make the ride just a little more stable. With
your help, I used Tokico Illumina II's, the Eibach
lowering kit, and the Addco 1 1/4" Rear Sway Bar.
The results were phenomenal! From a stop I can
accelerate through a left hand turn , and be at
50-55 mph prior to the straight without any symptoms
of body roll, loss of rear grip, or forward bite.
Basically, she is just the way Ford should have done
it in the first place...PERFECT!
Thank you for all of
your help in the achievement of my goals.

Hi Bill,
I just wanted
to give you some feedback on the Art Carr transmission and converter I ordered
from you. Over the past year I redid my 95 Cougar's engine, transmission,
remaining drivetrain, and suspension. Upon completing the 4.6 custom PI
motor I needed a transmission that was able to take the increased power, abuse
from the use at the strip, as well as street duty. The Art Carr 4R70W
trans and 9.5 inch converter are holding up very very well. The shifts
are firm and
aggressive, but still very streetable. The stall speed on the converter
is just right for my engines rpm range and allows the car to launch hard and
compliment the 4:30 rear gear ratio I am currently using.
Art Carr has done a fine job with this set up and i
would certainly recommend these components to anyone who wants top quality and
dependable performance. I have the car running 12.93 at its best so far
[that's with a lot of tire spin] and its naturally aspirated. Even with
the motor putting out well over three hundred horses to the wheels, the new
trans sure helps making these kind of quarter mile ET's a possibility.
Also, the 4.6L 3/4 length Kooks headers are fantastic.
There were absolutely no fitment problems at all! A real nice
product. I am also using the 2.5 inch high flow cats you sent. If
you mount them close to the headers there is plenty of room to get them in
there. The only downside is that you are a bit limited to how low
you can go with the cars suspension. I have a 1.7 inch drop and that's
about as low as you can go to keep things from scraping [watch those speed
bumps!].
I have also included a couple of pics of the finished
car. I am very interested in the '89-93 Mach 1 hood your offering. I'm
talking with my body man to see if it will be feasible to rework the front
section to fit the 95 Cougar application as it does not look too
difficult. Thanks a bunch for offering these great items, and the
wonderful customer service.
Take care,

Bill,
Thank you so much for the products I have ordered from
you. I love everything I have purchased from you, from the front clear
corners, headlights, sway bars, springs, KONI shocks, bushings, and the massive
amounts of engine mods. I think of myself as a bargain shopper and I have
always checked around for the best prices and so far no one can compare. It is
excellent to have the convenience to be able to drive right up to your shop and
get the parts that day; as well as, being able to call you anytime and get
advice and information. I am sure to be getting more parts from you ASAP and I
really appreciate doing business with you.
Sincerely,
Zachary Lowe

Hi Bill,
I recently received the 1 5/8 x 2.5" Kooks/SCP headers
for my '97 4.6L V8 Thunderbird and simply love them! They have really
helped to wake up my car. The great exhaust, along with my Allen Engine
Supercharger kit, and a 2001 PI head Romeo engine have helped out a lot.
I recently went to the track and blew away a C5 Corvette racing next to
me. My best time for the day was 12.92 at over 107
mph!! Thanks again for offering these awesome parts.

Bill at Super Coupe Performance,
I thought I would give you guys credit for your help. Here's a picture of
what I have. It's a '95 Cougar with a 5.0 swap and it has a killer ATI
Pro Charger. I bought a couple of parts from you guys and they have
worked out great! Thanks for displaying my car on your site.
I really appreciate it.

Hi Bill,
I want to let you know that I purchased everything from the exhaust manifolds
back for the exhaust system and I am really happy with the results of the sound
and performance. I had a local shop do the installation and had everything
welded together fine.
I wasn't sure how it was going to sound. There are a couple of Taurus SHO's
around and some XR-7's with exhaust work, but they sound lousy. This system has
a nice deep rumble to it. Not obnoxious like the
imports with the paint can
exhaust tips. It sounds awesome!
My friend has a Lexus IS300 and we were riding back on the highway and we had a
little fun. I was worried that the Lexus would take me considering it has the
same engine as the Supra and it is a smaller lighter car. I kept the car in
drive (not the OD) and we both nailed it. He had a slight jump on me, but after
the spark plugs cleared themselves out (really fouled) I caught him and started
to pull away. I am happy with the exhaust and I hope you are happy that your
product can make a difference even if the car is not running at 100% and can
still put some newer cars to shame.
Now I need to work on the intake side of the car
and really spank some import a$$. Thunderbirds ROCK!
Thank you,

Dear SCP,
I ordered a set of 17x9 Cobra R rims from you for my '91 Thunderbird. They look
great!! I have also used your website to find some other parts for my car
which include a Cervini wing and a Cobra R hood. Which I am still waiting for.
I thought I would send a picture of it now. It has the Rims and wing on it it
has been lowered and soon will have the Cobra R hood and a fresh paint job.
Thank you for all of your help. A very satisfied customer.

Dear Bill,
Thank you so much for all the help that you have given to me over the past
year. When I first bought my '95 SC, I knew little to nothing about my
car. With your help you have made my car into a fine tuned, dramatically
quicker SC.
I thank you again for all the help and advice. I look forward to doing
more business with you in the future. Thanks for the wonderful / quick
service and shipping.
Sincerely,

To: Super Coupe Performance
Dear Bill,
I wanted to write this letter to you telling you how pleased I am with the
performance equipment I purchased from your establishment. All too frequently
in this world, the good we do, is far overlooked, and all we hear is the bad. I
had occasion to use your company when a customer of mine wanted to add some
performance to his son's Thunderbird SC, but I'm getting ahead of myself here.
I run a Porsche only performance establishment. We build racing cars, (for road
racing), high performance street cars, (six of our cars stared on Miami Vice),
and very expensive Porsche racing engines. Also we build many of our own parts
and have them manufactured for us. I have a very high buck clientele and money
is generally no object to our customers--only performance.
My background with speed is quite thorough. While in the United States Air Force
I was a command pilot flying B-52 D's with 202 combat missions into North
Vietnam, and then was recruited by Central Intelligence to fly F-111's into
Laos and Cambodia. After my tour of duty, I became involved in road racing and
spent 10 years professionally driving Porsche racing cars all over the world.
As an example, I Gave competed in the he 24 Hours of LeMans 6 times, so I am no
freshman to the world of high performance and speed, be it in the air or on the
ground.
I had a customer who had a very tricked out Porsche and he wanted to do
something for his son's 1989 Thunderbird SC. This man spends quite a lot of
money with me and although I do not work on `American Iron', I couldn't refuse
his requests for us to work on his son's car. The key to this project was (a)
Performance, (b) reliability, (c) cost effectiveness. To make a long story
short, I did my homework, and ended up talking with you on the telephone to buy
some parts. I was impressed with your honesty--(I love dealing with straight
shooters)--knowledge and sincerity. I decided to deal with your company and am
most pleased with my decision to do so.
As you know, we spent a tidy sum of dollars with you but received every penny
worth in return in great products, factual information and the assurance that
you would be there if we had a problem down the line. We were pleased with your
service, expertise and the quality of the parts. Now the story gets a bit more
interesting.
Almost after completion of the car, this man's son got himself into some trouble
and `Dad' decided that he would forgo the pleasure of having such a car as his
punishment. The gentleman asked me if I would sell it for him and I told him
that I would do my best.
The equipment we put on the car and our bill was quite healthy . . .Your
exhaust, the full length headers, larger throttle body, larger Mass Air Flow,
larger injectors, fuel pump, Magnecor wires, drilled rotors with KVR brake
pads/rotors, Koni shocks, Eibach springs, fresh air induction kit, raised
Supercharger kit, overdrive pulley, intercooler fan, performance clutch ...the
list goes on and on, as you know because you sold us the parts.
After completion of the car, I had the job of test driving it and sorting it
out. BOY, WAS I SURPRISED! Being use to driving Porsche automobiles, I didn't
expect to be too impressed--this 3600 lb Detroit Iron will rock and roll. All
of a sudden I was transported back in time to my youth and all the quick Fords
I had toiled over burning the midnight oil. The parts performed as stated, and
the car was a virtual rocket ship considering its heritage and weight.
I BOUGHT THE CAR.
I now use this as my daily driver, and love every minute of it. It's got the
sound, the performance, goes around corners and stops as good as most Porsche's
running around on the streets today. I get comments on the car constantly and
cannot believe how this eleven year old heavy-weight just flat out runs. I had
occasion two weeks ago, while doing some Porsche testing at the Honda test
center in Ohio to do a top speed run with the car. Would it surprise you to
know that this car, with the modifications listed above will do an honest
167.45 miles per hour, and it only takes a tad more than 3/4 of a mile to get
there. NOW THAT'S PERFORMANCE!
I want to thank you for your excellent advice, knowledge and great parts. You
are THE MAN! I have enclosed a picture of the car and you may use the photo and
this letter in any way you so desire. More Thunderbird owners who are seeking
great performance need to know of your service and expertise.
Sincerely,

Dear Bill,
I installed that complete exhaust system I purchased from SCP. My friend
says (before installing it) "No, they don't make 'em on a car, they just make a
jig after 1 or 2 of them". He ate his words! What a perfect
fit! What a perfect sound too! It is very throaty, yet not loud
like glass packs. 6 cylinders and glass packs just don't work, but this
system does! I also installed the SCP Fresh Air Induction System and am
equally happy with it.
Again, thanks for the awesome package. I am very pleased.

Re: Magnum Powers "Classic" Cast Raised Supercharger Top & ProM Bullet
Dear Bill,
I'm dropping you a note as a follow-up about the Magnum Powers
raised top I purchased from you last fall. Everything arrived in the mail
promptly and after a quick visual inspection it was off to my dyno shop for
installation and testing. I was pleased that everything went smoothly and the
top was actually pretty easy to install. As expected, the looks of the top were
2nd to none and I still have that nice, desirable stock appearance, which was
important to me. Quickly, we strapped my car up to the dyno for the
much-anticipated pull. I'd like to mention I also installed the Pro-M 75 Bullet
maf meter at the same time to minimize dyno costs.
The 1st pull produced a net gain of +6 PEAK rear wheel
horsepower which initially had me somewhat disappointed at this seemingly small
gain, but further inspection of my HP and torque curves showed gains of +15 to
+20 HP and +20 ft-lbs of torque in the 4500-5000 rpm range!
I was well pleased at this simple bolt-on mod and would recommend it to any SC
enthusiast who's interested in improving performance of their car in the upper
rpm band while keeping the stock looks of the blower. My hat is of to you for
offering a fine product at a fair price and my dyno printouts prove this as a
worthwhile mod.
Sincerely,
Phil Kuhn

Super Coupe Performance
Dear Mr. Evanoff,
I just wanted to let you know how amazed I am with the performance gain from the
70mm Throttle Body I recently purchased from Super Coupe Performance. It was
very easy to install and really improved my acceleration and throttle response
tremendously. The gas pedal definitely stiffened after I put it on and feels
like the throttle on my dad's modified ‘94 Corvette which also has a
BBK/Edlebrock Throttle Body. I would highly recommend to anyone the BBK 70mm
Throttle Body.
You are not getting the most out of your mods, no matter how minor they may be,
without it.

Dear Bill,
Thank you sooo much! I love my car (hahaha)- I haven't stopped smiling since I
put on the 70mm throttle body and the SCP Fresh Air System. I could tell the
difference from the moment I first put down the gas pedal. I am very satisfied!
Once again- thanks much!

Super Coupe Performance/SCCoA
Hi Bill
I'm enjoying reading latest Chargin' Thunder issue. I truly wish it was
possible to participate at an official SCCoA function. Unfortunately, all of
them are so far away from Auburn, WA! (Seattle)
I took your advise and love the snappy throttle response after just replacing my
SC's center resonator with the Magnaflow High Flow Resonator! The guy that
installed it for me went on and on about how "it" wouldn't do anything... and
if I wanted to improve performance I should start by replacing just the rear
mufflers with some cheap-ass "turbo" ones he had on sale! Remembering what you
had said, about starting in front and working toward the rear of the car......I
stuck to my guns; and wow, what a difference!!!
I had my mechanic install the Trans-Go shift kit in my AOD too. Love it as
well...! My '90 SC came with 3.27:1 gears; and surprisingly enough, my little
8.8" trac-lock axle still hooks up every time. Until she blows or the clutches
die, I'll stick with the original setup...(I'm keeping an open ear toward any
Lincoln Mark VIII with the aluminum housing and 3.55:1's though!)
Must comment that my Trans-Go was set up at the mildest setting, yet has no
problem "gettin' rubber" from 2nd to 3rd. (IN DRIVE!) This is how she
runs out so far...In O/D, not "D", my car runs 1st to 5,000 RPM, 2nd to 4,900
and then 3rd until the up-shift alarm sounds. (and I chicken out at 105MPH @
4,000RPM and let up.) That makes the 3rd to 4th (O/D) shift around 4,000 RPM at
sea level, with about 13 lbs. of boost reading on my gauge.
The car only has 94,000 miles on it. And only 5,000 since a major engine
overhaul necessitated by head gaskets, followed by lots of other parts....
(just cause I was already in there). That said, I feel the motor is very
strong!
Thank you for the latest round of SCP parts and for providing such a great club
in honor of Ford's best kept secret sleeper!

To Bill Evanoff at SCP
Dear Bill,
It was a pleasure to do business with you recently. I appreciated how you
completely answered all of my questions regarding the bolt-ons that I
purchased. I installed the underdrive pulley set, a 5% SC overdrive pulley,
C&L 73mm MAF, and the intercooler fan. You also gave me valuable advise on
some methods to improve my stock exhaust flow (I'm on a budget).
Torque has improved dramatically across the rpm band! (picked up 40 - 50 ft lbs
peak). Just by adding these bolt-ons it feels like the car will do mid 14
second quarters now and 0 - 60 is fantastic. I am really getting a lot of fun
out of this car now. It no longer feels like a moderate mid 15 second
performance vehicle anymore. I have just purchased the Magnum Powers Classic
raised SC top from you and there is no doubt in my mind that I will get even
more real power gains from this in the mid to high rpm band. When I'm finished
with the rest of the upgrades over time I will have a serious performance Super
Coupe.
Thank you Bill!
Sincerely,
Randy Curry
