    What's the goal for your car?

    My goal is 11.99 in the 1/4 all-motor full-weight on Pirelli street tires. I know it's a lofty goal, but well.... it's my goal :)

    Cold Air Kits

    Don't hesitate on getting an SCT tuner (I'm a big www.bamachips.com fan here!). Just because they *allow* for adjustability, doesn't mean you have to program the whole thing yourself when you load it up. The SCT tuner will come with a pre-loaded tune from whoever you get your kit from. There...

    Next mod should be?????

    if you plan on running slicks or DR's, then 4.10's would be worth more than I got. I still run on stock Pirelli's, so I didn't get the full 60' benefit that the gears help provide. They force a 4th gear shift, so that ever so slightly offsets some benefit. I'm not familiar with how the...

    thank you ford

    I don't know what my city mpg is, but my overall avg mpg is 22.3. It was 23.5 before the 4.10's.

    Next mod should be?????

    I dunno about what you'd see on a rwhp dyno, but I picked up .25 seconds & 2 mph with my driveshaft & 4.10's. I believe honestly, the driveshaft was worth half of the total gains I got, if not 70% of it.

    Next mod should be?????

    I got my aluminum driveshaft from PSI Performance, and I LOVE it. It is a very high quality driveshaft. They sell their for $499 complete with new rear bolts & pinion flange. I got in on a sale they had for $399, but $499 is their normal price. Some people don't like the idea of changing out...

    Mods and tuning.

    SOMETIMES, although a very rare occasion, some drive-by-wire settings must be changed in the tune for the 4.10's. My car happened to be one of those rare occasions. This just goes to show how all cars are different, and not all ecu's function EXACTLY the same. You MOST LIKELY won't have to...

    Next mod should be?????

    +1. And look into an aluminum driveshaft. I cannot BEGIN to state how much these REALLY help these cars. If I'd have know how much quicker it would make my car, I'd have done it a LONG time ago.

    Cold Air Kits

    I think you're just misunderstanding me just as your are ramjetlx. We both agree with you that the stock airbox was designed for emissions & noise; we never debated that. We both agree with you that the stock airbox design is ****ty with poor airflow; we never debated that. ALL we were saying...

    Cold Air Kits

    The factory airbox does indeed pull air from inside the fender, hence pulling in "cold air". Just because it is a cold air setup doesn't mean it's a GOOD cold air setup. These aftermarket cai's suck in hotter air than the stock airbox. Now that doesn't mean I'my saying the stock airbox is...

    Any major differences between C&L and JLT CAI?

    They're both just as good, and it's been proven and proven again too many times at tracks all over the place. The C&L is just more expensive due to it's cast aluminum material vs. the JLT's plastic construction w/ billet maf housing.

    06 gt in the 11s

    just get all the bolt-on's (longtubes, cmrc's, pulleys, driveshaft, cai, good tune), >/=4.10's, cams, heads, & SLICKS. I bet that'll get the job done EASILY. Hell, it's very likely already been done by a common guy (not a shop owner like Justin) and I just haven't heard about it. I...

    Noise after installation of aluminum DS

    then I bet it's less due to the driveshaft, and more due to the 4.10's.

    for those who said the 05+ cant sound live prev gen stangs...

    The reason our cars sound so different is the muffler placement. With our mufflers being behind the axle, we have short tailpipes. With the older Mustangs having the mufflers in front of the axle, they have longer tailpipes which proves the great sound. There was a guy on I think...

    Noise after installation of aluminum DS

    JTGrant, what kinda noise is it? Vibration noise, rattle noise, or gear noise? It likely normal to have some more gear noise in 1st & reverse with 4.10's simply due to the fact that your final drive ratios in 1st & Reverse are so low now... just a thought?

    Noise after installation of aluminum DS

    yeah I have the PSI Performance aluminum driveshaft and 4.10's. The only extra noise I have is just a SLIGHT bit of road noise that is transmitted in 5th gear at cruising speeds, but it seems to be normal. I haven't noticed any extra 1st gear or reverse noise :(

    CAI Intake w/ tune gains optimistic?

    The cai/tuner combo is still the single best mod I've done to my car.

    I know Evan Smith can drive, but that video had so much shadiness in it that it made me feel greasy just watching it.

    Rear axle moan fix.

    I believe it's just simply the new clutch material. I don't browse the Terminator/GT500 forums much, but of all the Terminator guys that I know I've not heard ANY of them complain about any axle moan. :shrug:
