    V6 vs GT

    Ford Confirms the Existence of "Manly Points" I wrote Ford and they confirmed your suspicions: The 05 V6 only comes with 6.7 Manly Points, or MPs, while the 05 GT has a whopping 8.3 MPs. It seems you are on to something! They weren't keeping official MPs on the 04, but an anonymous source...

    V6 x-pipe

    Any particular reason for the X over the H? Would the H cause the loss of torque as experienced by Shooter1? I was going to go with an H (simply becasue the JBA kit comes with it) but am now reconsidering.

    dual exhaust help

    Do you think that the H vice X pipe set up has anything to do with the loss of torque? In the sticky thread on the duals, I remember reading about the performance advantage of X over H, and the sound advantage of H over X. Rygen has written about it, also. Personally, I don't know, but someone...

    Thanks! Thanks for breaking it down "Barney Style!" That's EXACTLY what I needed!!! :D I think I will try that and see how I like it. And to paraphrase another member, "Hard to see mistakes when I am hauling ass down the road!!!" :nice:

    Vandalized

    I understand your pain! My car is very unique looking, and I am afraid someone is going to go after my car because they are too afraid to confront me. Messing with someone's car is extreme cowardice.... :nonono: I have a hot head and would feel exactly the way you do and would probably wait...

    Bumpers

    I read where people have used a boxcutter and a dremel. I think I would whimper as the blade pressed against the paint and cry as the razor sharp metal slid into the trusting and unsuspecting bumper. But then again, looking at the paint and install bill would probably infuriate me, leading to...

    Well I'm pretty much F@#ked!!

    While I agree that the kit can be made to fit with reasonable effort, I disagree that the Pony Package is just an appearance package. One of the benefits of the package is a thicker sway bar in the front and the addition of a sway bar in the back. It is probably this rear sway bar that is...

    Well I'm pretty much F@#ked!!

    Hmmm... Why wouldn't they go on? Is it becasue of the sway bars? There was no way for him to modify the system slightly? It seems strange that there was no way to put the system on, as a lot of dual owners fabbed theirs themselves. :shrug:

    Bumpers

    A lot of people are cutting their V6 bumper but I am seriously thinking about going the GT bumper route. I think it looks better. Of course, I will probably pay someone to put them on... I have worked on other cars but am loathe to F up my pretty little girl. :rolleyes:

    Any problems with the 2006 Stangs.??

    The computer code for the 06s is different and I was told that this would make a difference. The shop could have been unsrupulous and let me come in and run everything with the 05 codes. Therefore, they had no reason to lie about it and lose a potential customer. Luckily, they saw the light and...

    TrueTrac/Girdle/Gears/Tune Revisited...

    I think that Excessive does Diablo dyno tunes. They told me that they could get me a Diablo now but once I mentined that Springfield had the 06 codes, and Excessive bought them right away!!! Their number is 703-331-1422 if you are interested. I will PM you with the cost. Man, I can't wait! I...

    Ford Racing

    Says something when FOMOCO won't install and stand behind their own equipment. Wish I was surprised.... Maybe it is just your dealership?

    Any problems with the 2006 Stangs.??

    Oh, should have clarified. Getting it dyno tuned as well. Did you tune yours yourself? Get the tune preloaded from SCT, or get a shop to do it?

    TrueTrac/Girdle/Gears/Tune Revisited...

    Much to my dismay, I had to delay beefing up the rear end and getting a tune as a result of a lack of 06 SCT tunes in this area. The parts have sat in my apartment for weeks now.... However, I convinced Excessive Motorsports to purchase the 06 tunes, and on Friday Dec 9 (have to wait until...

    Any problems with the 2006 Stangs.??

    Only problem is finding a shop with the new 2006 tunes for the SCT. Only one place up here in NVA has them, and they are the kind of shop were you grab your ankles when you drop off your car.... :nice: LOVE MY CAR!!! :nice:

    guys happy with v6?

    I am going to have to contact Auto Upgrade or E3. LA Drop shop wants me to drop off the car on Sunday and then pick it up next week. I can't afford to spend that time driving back and forth (Finals in 2 weeks).
