New Taurus before any work, and my old '88 Tempo. 1998 Ford Taurus — Just hanging out and looking good. 1998 Ford Taurus — Note the black third window. Guess that's my "signature" now -- did it to my Tempo too. 1998 Ford Taurus — I love that Zymol shine! 1998 Ford Taurus — Up close and personal . . . don't touch the paint job! 1998 Ford Taurus — I think the front end cover adds a little personality and attitude. 1998 Ford Taurus — Note the extra 24V DOHC badge. 1998 Ford Taurus — A better look at my chrome dual exhaust. 1998 Ford Taurus — Mean Green's 200+ HP heart 1998 Ford Taurus — Instrument cluster. 1998 Ford Taurus — Panoramic of front seats/dash. I loooove my leather interior. 1998 Ford Taurus — Panoramic of backseat. The fold-down seats look funny. 1998 Ford Taurus — The trunk is like a bottomless pit. 1998 Ford Taurus — 1988 Tempo GL My first car, I owned it 6 years. 100k miles when I sold it. 1998 Ford Taurus — This really was a Fix Or Repair Daily. In 6 years I spent as much on repairs as I did for the car! 1998 Ford Taurus — UFO preparing for take-off. 1998 Ford Taurus — Very dark night photo with car headlights and parking lights glowing 1998 Ford Taurus — UFO moving away at high speed . . . wait a sec, that UFO has an Ohio license plate! Taurus in alternate universe. So you think the '98 Taurus looks like a space ship huh? The Taurus is a muti-purpose vehicle. 1998 Ford Taurus — Hmmm, I think thats a bad tranny mount. 1998 Ford Taurus — TCCA sticker in my back window. Credit goes to Venom 800TT for this version of the official TCCA logo. 1998 Ford Taurus — Stock Throttle Body (front) 1998 Ford Taurus — Stock TB at WOT (wide open throttle) 1998 Ford Taurus — After "Half-Shafting," looks nice too. 1998 Ford Taurus — WOT after, what a difference! 1998 Ford Taurus — Stock - 60mm, Modified nearly equal to 65mm 1998 Ford Taurus — Stock MAF, tons of extra plastic! 1998 Ford Taurus — Bored out MAF, MUCH better. 1998 Ford Taurus — The back of the MAF. 1998 Ford Taurus — Stock - 70mm, Modified equal to 80mm 1998 Ford Taurus — I thought this would improve air flow through the box, plus perhaps improve air filter performance/life. 1998 Ford Taurus — The stock air silencer. What a convoluted piece of crap! This is why removing the air silencer can give 10 HP. That opening is only 44 mm, and restricts air by 30%!! 1998 Ford Taurus — My new CAI. Just 3" dryer vent. (This is behind the fender) 1998 Ford Taurus — CAI at the box. I cut the conector off the original, shoved the pipe over that, then used duct tape to seal t… 1998 Ford Taurus — This is what I reused so I could attach the new CAI. I cut at the line.
