    Hood shake

    My 2014 Mustang GT is having hood shake and it seems to be at the cowl mostly when going between 70-80 mph. From what I can tell it seems to be a common problem…has anyone had this problem and fixed it? I tried adjusting my hood bump stops and that didn’t work, my next plan of attack is to just...

    2014 Mustang GT with leaking fuel line

    I was pulling out of a parking lot couple days ago and scraped the undercarriage pretty good and while I’ve done that before without incident, I didn’t think anything of it until I got home and noticed a gas smell when I was getting out of the car. I started the car again, looked underneath and...

    Engine 2014 mustang GT...coolant smell, no sign of leak.

    Got to work yesterday and first noticed coolant smell...I opened the hood and looked all over, looked under the car as well and no sign of a leak and not running hot at all. The smell did seem to come from the coolant reservoir or the overflow hose coming off of it... with the car running I...

    Fox Horsepower

    I have always wondered why did the Fox lose power on 1993? As far as I can tell from '90 - '92 fox body's had 225 HP and then in '93 it dropped to 205 HP. Did they switch from a Windsor style 5.0 to a modular style 5.0 that year compromising HP?

    Mustang Week!

    Why is there no mustang week in California? I would think that in Los Angeles, namely the San Fernando Valley -which is the mecca of hot rodding- there would be a mustang week. Not to mention that California is the only state that has had a mustang named for it (GT/CS). Maybe I just keep...

    X Pipe Vs H Pipe...

    I know it's a tired question, but I am curious if one is better/more efficient than the other. The truth is I am considering an X-pipe, but after I found out that shorty headers are the only CA compliant headers I can get and aren't really worth the money with what little power they add over the...

    Cold Air Intakes

    Are CAIs worth buying or just hype and good looks? I'm guessing the latter, but I keep getting mixed answers when researching online. I am under the impression that the ones that do work are the kits that are "tune required" in which case the tune would be supporting most of the power adding...

    Rear Control Arms

    looking for new upper and lower rear control arms. Want to get a Ford racing kit, but can't find the uppers anywhere. Did Ford racing stop making the uppers? I can find the lowers all day...

    Noise In Front After Installing Lowering Springs

    I installed 1.5 inch lowering springs and after doing so I noticed a creaking almost metal on metal sound when I turn the steering wheel. After the job was done I realized I didn't take the spring isolators off the factory springs and put them on the new lowering springs. Would having no spring...

    Tire Size And Computer

    I'm going to get new tires wanna get 235/45-18 front and 275/40-18 rear on '14 Mustang GT. Given that the stock tires are 235/50-18 would the change in tire height be enough to affect my odometer reading and/or computer?

    Brembo Brakes?

    Do all 2014 Mustang GTs come standard with Brembo brakes or was that something that was only added as an option? Also, if not Brembo brakes then how many Pistons are the standard calipers vs the Brembo calipers and how much smaller are the standard rotors vs the Brembo rotors?
