What kind of mpg should one get with a Roush CAI? I just got a 2013 GT with a Roush CAI installed on it. 6-speed manual and 3.31 gears. I was getting 19mpg out of my 2011 GT with 6-speed/3.55 gears, SR Performance CAI, Boss 302 intake manifold, and off-road H pipe. The computer on the 2013...

Looking to move my 19" Boss 302S rims over to a 2013 GT Premium that currently has 18" rims on it. Is the steering gear different on 18"-rim car/does it have different size stoppers to keep the rims from rubbing at full left or right turn extension?

As some of you know, I wrecked my '11 GT. I now have a '13 GT and want to transfer everything from the '11 to it. This '13 has 18" rims on it (someone put older SVT rims on it with 235 pizza cutters). I want to transfer the 19" rims over. Will the 19" rims work with the steering gear on an 18"...

I've had a tragedy in my life. The Black Buggy was totaled Friday morning. Investigation is still under way as to what happened/why, so I can't say much about the details although you can tell from the damage to my vehicle that the mass and speed of the truck was likely a factor (police report...

Has anyone installed a Torsen rear end differential (or have one already... assuming you have a Laguna Seca or track-ready Mustang)? It's the ideal setup I think since it allows for one wheel to pick up the slack where the other is lacking. But my concern is that you can't get any traction out...

I noticed something interesting about the PCV routing on the 2013 and 2014 Boss 302S motors. PCVs on driver's and passenger's side are both routed to a catch can. The input from the passenger's side PCV to the intake manifold is blocked off at the intake manifold. You can see in the picture...

Car hit 100k miles yesterday. Overall, the drivetrain has been wonderful. As far as I can tell, it is just as well as it was five years ago when I bought it new. Getting the AC compressor fixed this week (after two years of not having AC for the summers). Also upgrading the exhaust. Removed...

What street-legal rims and tires are you guys using that are giving you a dead hook? I want to replace the stock GT Premium 19"s with 19"s that give me clearance to install Brembo brakes up front. What are you guys using? I can't get dead hooks for **** in this thing since I have upgraded...

I just updated my X4 BAMA tuner last weekend to make way for a new upgrade. I went to remove the code I get from cooler weather- like we have today- that says the thermostat is taking longer than usual to open. This is because I have the hi-flow Boss 302S grille. When it is warmer out- not a big...

What street-legal rims and tires are you guys using that are giving you a dead hook? I want to replace the stock GT Premium 19"s with 19"s that give me clearance to install Brembo brakes up front. What are you guys using? I can't get dead hooks for :poo: in this thing since I have upgraded...

Pretty sure I blew the clutch up today; it was due after 91k of red-line racing. It basically locked me out of shifting into any gear while the car is running. I can shut it off, put it in gear, and fire it up and stay in that gear and thats it. Drove it to the tranny shop on its last leg...bits...

My motorized lumbar support broke last Winter. It was because a tension spring broke (see attached pictures). Ford wants $400 for the part, so I made a crappy repair spring out of coat hanger wire for time being. I have full lumbar support all the time, which is better than what I had which was...

It was just a matter of time, but my AC compressor died yesterday. Made a terrible screech for a few minutes (I left it on while troubleshooting), but it eventually stopped and now I have no cool air. Hooked a can of 134A up to the low pressure port and the line pressure is at maximum, so the...

Has anyone replaced theirs and, if so, what kind did they go with? Has anyone replaced the front UCAs as well and did it help? I remember reading somewhere that people were saying switching to polyurethane bushings in the front LCAs would cause issues with the ECU/computer and don't want to deal...

I have the Shaker 1000 system. Just about 58,000 miles on my car. Driving home from work, noticed I was getting this bassy "wup wup wup wup", etc. sound like maybe air bouncing around in the cabin of the car. Turned volume down and turned the AC off and it seemed to stop. Later on, left my...

It has been a while since I looked into this, but if you install the Boss 302 Intake Manifold, I know you need the manifold install kit, but do you need to upgrade to a 90mm billet throttle body due to the fitment of the new intake manifold or will the intake manifold- with the install kit- hook...

Anyone else noticed their rear brake lines chafing against the rear lower control arms? They run through a space in the lower control arm-by design- and chafe. They have a protective water-resistant wrap around that section that is already worn down on my car (only three years of chafing). I am...

The suspension on my car has been slightly "poppy" sounding since a few months after I bought it (brand new in 2011). It used to only do it when it was below 50 degrees Farenheit, but has been pretty consistent lately, even during the current warmup/thaw. I took it to Ford the first year I had...

2011 5.0 6-speed here. Need some affordable rims and tires to get power down to the track without loss of traction. The stock Pirellis just don't do it. What affordable setups are everyone else using? Wide 16" rims? Don't want to break the bank here.

I have a 2011 5.0 Mustang. It is consistently burning 3-4 quarts of oil per oil change. I am assuming this is normal since the car requires 8 quarts of super-light 5W-20 oil (like they designed the oil pan to be larger because the engine naturally burns a lot of oil)? Otherwise, Ford likely owes...
