    is it gettting to be too much?

    There is so much snake oil in the "performance parts" biz. Like was said above get rid of that thing. It's a fine line between daily driver and race car. Do something like nitrous, on/off :nice:

    November 2005 Mustang Sales Decrease

    Gas prices are still too high. When a non gear-head goes car shopping they look at gas mileage, and the mustang just can't compete with the Japanese stuff. In the grad scheme of things there are not a whole lot of people who look at horsepower/torque when buying a car. Walk around your...

    GM Announces 30,000 Job Cuts, 9 Plant Closures

    This is terrible news! I knew this was going to happen the minute I saw Cadillac and Lincoln badges on trucks.:nonono: They both bet the farm on the truck chassis and guess what.... they're not moving 'em for $$ (dumping them cheap) How many times can you "re-skin" a ****ing Suburban? The SUV...

    Possible Front Brake Problem?

    I'm confused. Do you mean a clicking sound like a small rock stuck in the tire treads? A rock stuck in the rotor, well that would be a new one for me.

    Break in period??

    This is not a rebuilt engine here. The rings are seated by the time you get the car. Those engines are run on propane/natural gas before they even get placed in the chassis. After assembly the car gets driven a little to check other things. If car makers didn't "break in" the motors imagine...

    Ford won't ok a new engine in a 05 GT with

    Only 5800 miles and 3 full months in the shop. You have a lemon. Distance yourself from this car asap. But, it is your car and this is the Internet, so you won't get the answer you're looking for. You will hear ***** like "new models have problems", "It takes time to get the parts" and my...

    Complaint Letter

    Frustrating situation to be sure. Try and find a "local" dealer, meaning not some nation wide chain, if that's possible. I hate selling cars myself :mad: You get all kinds of scum coming around to look/beat on your car. Try and find a consignment lot that will act as a buffer for you and...

    What mods can I do w/o voiding warranty?

    The "my dealer is cool" situation only works if you break down in your city/town. If you're out of town/state well then :shrug:

    What mods can I do w/o voiding warranty?

    Read up on the Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act. Most of this stuff like "cold air" and flashing the chip will be grounds for denial. Sometimes you gotta get with reality and realize this is your daily driver, and if you want Ford to repair it then don't mod it. If you want a race car then...

    You have a Lemon. I've been through this with GM. You won't be happy with this car; the start of a slippery slope. Sorry this is happening to you.

    Dear Ford - - -

    They need to bring back a stripper LX. Gear heads will buy it and "The I need heated seats" crowd can buy a GT. They should drop the 6 cylinder and replace it with a stripper LX.

    Help a brother out!

    I'm not trying to start a fight, sorry if it came across that way. I just wanted to help the original poster. Best bang for the buck is nitrous period. You like working on your car, and that's great. Remember there is so much snake oil in the "performance parts biz" I hate seeing people get...

    trouble

    No it's not normal and don't let a dealer tell you that it is. If it really bothers you, and they can't fix it LEMON it. Make them stand behind their product.

    05 gt vs mach1?

    :lol: :lol: Hate to burst your bubble, but I walked many a 99+ GT in my bone stock M6 01 Z28. Never raced a mach 1 though are they that much faster than an LS1, or an 05+? :shrug:

    Help a brother out!

    I realize you want to defend your purchase, and thats ok. I've been through all this before and you probably would have gotten the extra hp from the tune and a simple K&N. In the end it's your car and your money spend it how you want. You're probably not going to "feel" anything or run better...
