    Exhaust Flowmaster Pain - What Now?

    This car will NEVER sound like a classic PR 5.0. It's a dohc 4V V8, 7000 rpm redline with a completely different firing order and the mufflers rear mounted. Exhaust recs are really all personal preference but, in most cases, you get what you pay for. Flowmasters always drone. I just did...

    Mysterious Shifting Issue

    he ain't got an Mt82, he's got a Tremec 5 speed. Buy a complete shifter for this trans. any decent name brand will do. Steeda, Hurst, Barton, MGW.

    Does A 2011 V6 Have A Tps?

    Don't need a separate TPS because drive by wire is essentially direct-input TPS.

    Best Time @dragstrip So Far

    Slicks for a stick...if you want the driveline to live...drag radials can turn the rear end into hammered :poo: pretty quick.

    Cold Air Induction

    Stock becomes cool and not boring when you run an 11 sec 1/4 on stock parts. I tossed basically FRPP's mild Procal tune on the car and slicks and did that on a Premium, loaded GT. Pop the hood at the track and people flip to see the no modifications underhood. People like stock at that point and...

    Dead Pedal?

    If only you could find one of those die cast bare feet they used to put in Volkswagens in the '60s in place of the gas pedal. :)...

    Dead Pedal?

    Gotcha. I just cut a piece of coroplast and slid it behind the section of my weathertech digital fit hard mat at that location. I have thought about making something nicer but haven't got a roundtuit.

    Dead Pedal?

    Hmm? There's a bump in the floorpan that seems to be a dead pedal to me on my 2012.....

    Digital Compass Showing "--"

    You got tech? Go through the bezel diagnostics for the GPS. I've had 2 antennas go out on my 2012. 6 and 9 together enter diag mode and follow the prompts and button in the selection.

    Cold Air Induction

    You'd have to be magnificently incompetent to not manage this one on your own. It's a few turns of a screwdriver and a socket wrench. Should take about a 1/2 hour total. That said, you're wasting your money putting this on as there's pretty much zero performance there, unless you tune. "O2...

    Poppy Suspension

    This has been an issue on s197s since 2005. It's certainly well known and I always direct people here when they complain of rear noise. Gotta make sure you get the right Energy kit on 11+. There are 2. One for the 22 mm bar and one for the 24. BBP, TP and I think PP V6 cars, and the GT500...

    Replacing Second Mt-82 Transmission On My 2013 (deysha Help)

    Well, to put it in perspective, the car has been now, since the rebuild, shot down the track over 100 times, on slicks, full clutch dump launches from 4500-6000 rpm and no problems whatsoever. So, not main-strength weak, just some dodgy QC on outsourced parts in my view. I'm in the 11s on the...

    Replacing Second Mt-82 Transmission On My 2013 (deysha Help)

    Oh, I'm in another whole country from you but, thanks. I consider the problem solved, the noises now are minor and can be easily driven around with competent handling. The list of bits they had to replace inside the box was quite extensive and verified my claim to them that something was...

    Replacing Second Mt-82 Transmission On My 2013 (deysha Help)

    Wow, keep quiet and accept the surprising largesse and lack of hassle they are offering up here. It was a month long fight to get Ford to just repair my extant MT82, no replacement, after it started whining out of nowhere at a couple thousand miles. It has held together without issue since...

    Anyone Else's Coyote Consuming Oil?

    At first mine drank a bit now it is settling down and drinking very little. There's a little under 10,000 miles on my 2012. The car makes 439 flywheel horses on a mild tune with no other power mods and runs 11 sec 1/4s with a full option load so, the motor's good and the oil consumption was just...

    2011 Gt Tranny Noise

    This trans has "Don't powershift me" written all over it, with its remote shifter, narrow gates and QC issues. I keep it alive by not powershifting, just like I kept a stock '88 weak T5 alive for 10 years of racing behind various forms of artificial aspiration. Just gotta know when to say when.

    Mustang V6 Acceleration During Day Time

    Ummmm, no :poo:, Sherlock. The outside air temp and density changes as the day wears on. Typically the air is cooler and denser at night than in the heat of the day. You friend is a blue-sky idiot. You can moderate this somewhat through tuning but, it's a reality. Wanna really diminish it...

    2010 Mustang Gt Vs 2015 Mustang Gt

    Here's another idea. There are good deals Ro be had on leftover 24s and that s an 11 second car basically on traction. You mighht consider the end of an era car that is thus car. It's pretty polished up.
