    Goodrich Or Continental

    I'll say this: The Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercars are surprisingly good and not expensive. Hankook Ventus V12s are a good budget alternative as well.

    My Dyno Results...

    The governor is set at 147 actual. I have tested this several times. The speedo on the dash is slightly optimistic and the needle is so think it is hard t discern clearly. Tough thing with dyon on auto is there is no 1:1 gear to test it in. That can affect the results.

    '14 Mustang Gt Power To Weight Ratio

    depends what AMG. An AMG 6.3 C63 has a little more power and a little more weight so, it balances. An ML63 is in the full boat SUV class. If it's a 2016 S class with a biturbo V12 on 621 horse...It isn't a simple question; they got some mean engines in them. Depends on what speed you start at...

    2014 Mustang 5.0 A6 Vs M6

    Tune with or without CAI, depending on you wealth. CAI doesn't do much but I think you already have spent that money. Steeda or VMP I have heard are both excellent with auto. That alone could get you close to 400 wheel. I made 440 horse at the flywheel on the Ford Procal tune alone on my last...

    2014 Mustang 5.0 A6 Vs M6

    There's no gain t be had on 85 octane fuel, no matter what you do. Gains depend on what you want. There may be a few horses up high with a boss manifold but, you will have to raise the rev limiter to see them. It will cost you useable power down low and the boss mani is difficult to make work...

    2014 Mustang 5.0 A6 Vs M6

    ...and on the what's possible front: I ran 11.9 at 115 on my MT82 car with slicks,a 91 tune and GT500 axlebacks. Stock airbox, exhaust, full weight car with every option except glass roof.

    2014 Mustang 5.0 A6 Vs M6

    Absolutely not. Many of the fastest auto cars in north america are on 3:15 gears. First is so steep in the auto it's like 1st and 3.73s in the manual. Absolutely the best way to speed up an automatic is to loosen up the converter. That's not just me talking out of my ass. Look around and you'll...

    2014 Mustang 5.0 A6 Vs M6

    A couple bits of advice on your mod choices: dont change the gear, change the converter, if anyting. No boss intake or TB, they don't make gains in the real world, headers exhaust pricey but effective, tune the biggest bang for your buck you'll get.

    Reliability?????

    How about this test of "body integrity" that happened to me a month ago? By all measures, this was not a survivable incident but I self extricated and walked away with only two busted ribs. I like the car so much I bought this last weekend, 2014 auto car

    2014 Mustang 5.0 A6 Vs M6

    I've owned both and the auto is spectacular but different. The manual required, in my view, immediate mods to deal with its wheelhop and shifting issues. The auto is just coordinated, repeatable fast right out of the box. Three shifting modes, take your choice. You are not really giving up any...

    Decklid Blackout...paint Ruined :(

    Don't sand and prime. If it did this to surface paint, it'll just make it rust with primer underneath. Scuff it a little, hit it with a couple coats of clear in of a can or rust paint to seal it and stick the panel back on. You can properly refinish it at another time.

    Going To Drive My '14 Mustang Gt Cross Country

    I did a 6000 k trip to Vegas and Pac coast last year, plus i drag race the car on slicks and it's my daily, too, year round. Hasn't missed a beat yet.

    I pops back, hehe....I hit 11.9@115 on my Coyote on a mild 91 tune and a tire, fully loaded car, through the stock airbox....I have proof:)

    Add 100 horse to your 4.6 to bring it Coyote levels and we'll see how tried and true the 3650 is at that point.... So, let me get this straight: roughly same mileage as a Coyote, making 100 less hp. Hmmmm....power cost money in fuel usually but, apparently not here. ...and you think it's fair...

    Some 2010 Love

    Secret...I always hated the 4.6. Gas sucker, no power. I've had 4 mustangs and was waiting on the to finally ditch the boat anchor. SC a Coyote and it's 600 horse easy, instead of scattering internals all over the road at 450 on an sc 3v.

    No....historically, it's like the '74 Mustang II, the only Mustang to not have a V8 option, we see how special those are now.... #meanCoyote ;^P

    Are New Sway Bars My Fix?

    Lcas help but what you describe is diminished most markedly by either replacing the factory hydro bushings in the panhard bar with poly, or just buying a new panhard pre-assembled. Welcome to the life of solid rear axle. You might have to regrease LCAs, etc. once a year....really, it's not a big...

    Help! Should I Sell 2010 Mustang

    If you're attached to the car, keep it. A cross-eyed monkey could perform basic maintenance on these things and there is no way to know whether the newer car you purchase has been treated better than yours. At least you're certain of that with what you have. When you're in a position to...
