    Rough idling - 2002 Mustang GT

    Every time I turn on the defrost or AC my car feels like someone pulled a major vacuum hose off and the whole car vibrates like the timing is WAY off, and it loses a lot of power. This also happens when at a stop light and the cooling fan comes on. It goes away and runs normally if those things...

    Official Tremec 3650 Issues Thread

    It was an absolute fix for me. It hasn't ground going from 1st to 2nd since my dealer applied the TSB.

    MGW Ltd Short Shifter Yay or Nay

    Get an MGW. I've read some people say something like it's way to hard to shift but it's not! For example, shifting from 4th to 5th, you just lean it over a tad and it goes right in. It's NOT like a stock shifter. I've had mine for a couple of days now and I wish I would have had one from the day...

    Attempted to install Magnaflows (not magnapacks)

    Thanks Twista. I guess I know for sure now since Stangdriver13 and you say the same thing. It didn't sound like it was hurting anything but it was just a noise I never heard before.

    You are right with your transmission. A 3650 has built in stops so the ones that come with the shifter are not needed, and if you do use them can damage your transmission from what I've read. The install manual states that you HAVE to remove them for the 3650 or damage may occur.

    It sounds like it's normal then. Thanks for the reply. Also the instructions say to take the stops out and didn't say to put them back in.

    Attempted to install Magnaflows (not magnapacks)

    That's where I put mine too. Do you hear a different strage noise after installing yours when you're driving around town? It's not loud but a faint noise that sounds something like wwwiiiiiiissssssssssss. It's like you can hear things moving in the transmission. Did I do something wrong? I did...

    Attempted to install Magnaflows (not magnapacks)

    I installed the MGW shifter tonight. It was really easy to do to. Taking a look at it, you can see it's built as solid as a rock. Just the appearance alone was impressive. After I got it installed, I took the car for a drive and I am very impressed with it to say the least. Going from one gear...

    I don't think this is the type of wheel you are talking about but it's black on black. :) I bought mine here: http://www.americanmuscle.com/mustangwheels.html

    Attempted to install Magnaflows (not magnapacks)

    Yeah, you're right. I'll get used to it. It's really not THAT bad I guess. I sure like the sound of it in town when I get on it. It sounds pretty bad azz to say the least. And when you aren't on it, it's pretty quiet which is good too. "What's that officer? Disturbing the peace? That COULDN'T...

    Attempted to install Magnaflows (not magnapacks)

    I got the Magnaflows installed today. They sound really nice but now that I have them on, I wonder if it was REALLY worth it. I'm sure a lot of you will say "What?! Are you kidding?!" I spent $379 total for the Magnaflow Cat-Back and $117 for the installation for a total of $496. I'm VERY...

    Attempted to install Magnaflows (not magnapacks)

    I just had jacks to work with and there wasn't enough clearance for what I needed to do. After you get the first pipe on, then the muffller, it was a major pain trying to get the pipe on the rear of the muffler. The biggest issue was trying to get the pipe on the hanger and then get it on the...

    Attempted to install Magnaflows (not magnapacks)

    I wanted something louder with a DEEP note to it without being too loud and the Magnaflows sound just like what I was looking for. They sound better than I thought they would, and I don't even have both on yet. Magnapacks are just too loud for my taste. My next upgrade is coming tomorrow. It's...

    Attempted to install Magnaflows (not magnapacks)

    I just watched your video and that does sound great! I can't wait until I get mine all installed. The chrome tips on the Magnaflow is so much better than the stock tips too.

    Attempted to install Magnaflows (not magnapacks)

    I ordered some Magnaflows and received them today. I got one side of the exhaust off and for 4 hours tried to get it on. I just could not get everything lined up right. It's a very tight fit and fits like a glove like it should but I couldn't do it by myself. I was using floor jacks so that...

    When it's hot out...

    Here's a crazy idea. Why not channel AC into the air intake. LOL :) (just kidding of course)
