Just being an @ss and giving him a hard time.
VCT is for emmisions, not for performance. There is a reason Ford dropped it.
I will tell you this much....when anything on the VCT is not acting right you will feel a performace decrease.

That's the same conclusion me and friend came up with. Also stickers no longer add HP. Aluminum wings however do, as previously thought, add HP.
Just a 98+ zetec auto in tallahasee runs a 15.9 1/4 mile. He's got intake, wing, ported intake IIRC, and not much/anything else. I'd be happy to run a high 16 in the 1/4. We didn't race, so nothing conclusive... so story goes that he pulled on a cougar that I'm sure is faster than my car soooo. O well, I got the escort to start modding.
