    2005 gt or 2004 mach 1

    The mach 1 is running the same frame and suspension setup (of course revised springs and shocks) as my 5.0. My obvious choice was to go with the 05's coil overs, panhard bard with 3-link, and stronger frame then the old school four control arms and no coilovers for the past stangs. You can...

    e85 85% ethanol fuel

    Dont expect Hawaii to do this. I know, I live here. We are slow to do anything over here, its ridicolous.

    e85 85% ethanol fuel

    Of course that would be great. But how much would that cost? $40, 50, maybe $60,000? Most of us buy the mustang because its very affordable for the performance it delivers. I think we should be very fortunate that our cars can run 87 octane considering how much 91 or 92 octane costs now. I...

    e85 85% ethanol fuel

    If you want a fuel efficient car buy a honda or toyota. This is a mustang and has a 300 hp engine that needs to run on gasoline to get the performance it offers. We dont buy a v8 mustang for fuel economy, if we did we wouldnt be driving it.

    Finally purchase XCal 2, have Q about 87 oct tune...

    No problem what so ever!! You just need to know the power curve on the cars and how to manipulate it.You also need to remember the torque on these cars peak at around 4500 rpms, so its not like the cars of past years which were easier to do. The peak torque on the 5.0 came in around 3200 so...

    Wicked Wheel Hop

    More power causes less wheel hop? is that true? When I added more power to mine it had crazy wheel hop. I solved the problem by easing into the throttle and mashing it when I felt it catch traction. Of course a set of control arms would make it all disappear. When I drove my friends stock 05, I...

    WHICH SPRINGS???

    I guess its matter of taste. The Steeda's still look too high. The Eibach Pro kit definately closed up the gap on mine. It dropped the front about 1.4" and 1.6" in the rear. Very nice. Car looks aggressive. Car bounces a bit more but nothing that is annoying. I would go lower but I have problems...

    Eibach Pro Kit... Adjustable Panhard Bar or Not?

    I spoke with Steeda about this and they said no, unless you are going with a more aggressive drop such as the Sportlines. He strongly said there was too much hype about adding an adjustable bar to springs that only drop the car 1"-1.5" and it is not required.

    Roush Stage 1 or Saleen S281

    The stage 1 is just an appearance package. The stage 2 includes a handling package. I think it still uses the stock brakes also. Definately go with the Saleen. Better build and looks alot better. Theyre selling a supercharged one for almost $70,000 here, I rather buy a Z06 corvette for much...

    How should I protect my interior ?

    Your dealer should offer a protectant you can add to the interior. It has a 5 year warranty against spills and other things. I got mine as part of the PROCOAT package which also adds a protectant to the exterior paint. I believe you can buy them individually.

    Charger and Mustang SHARE best muscle car award??

    My 5.0 is a pony car!!! Now my 06 GT, that thing is a boat compared to my 5.0. I dont think its a pony car anymore.

    Is this normal?

    I switched over my stock motor oil about 3 months ago to Royal Purple synthetic. The car currently has almost 5000 miles on it. The problem is that when I went to check my oil I had to another 1 3/4 quarts of oil!!! The guy at the shop that I bought the oil from told me this was normal due to...

    Are my springs okay with stock shocks?

    I just installed some Eibach Pro springs on my car. It looks a 100 times better with a more aggressive look. Only problem is scrapping the bottom sometimes, even on dips in the road. It also feels a little bouncy at speeds over 100 mph, which it didnt before the install. Can I get away with the...

    Finally, I've found what I've been looking for!

    You know whats funny? Someone will actually buy those and put them on their GT's. I just hope they dont come out with Euro lights for these new mustangs.....

    Your 1/4 times BONE STOCK

    Try Steeda or Rousch. They have some for a little over 200.00.

    Your 1/4 times BONE STOCK

    Average time for mine stock was 13.7 at around 101 mph. Could go faster but the track is really bad here. Best on CAI/Tune is 13.4 at almost 103 mph.(93 octane) These cars are amazing!!!

    I got a 06 GT today.

    Put a tune on it!! It will really wake up that animal. Stock auto feels laggy but when you put a CAI/tune its a big difference. I just had to get use to the new powerband (drove a 347 before) but it grew on me and now I love it.

    Ford Dropping MyColor option for the redesign

    I agree with you a 100% on this. It looks kind of funky with a blue instrument cluster and everything else is green. I think they should keep the My Color option but allow everything else to change with it. Now that would be worth paying extra for. And the green backlight ford uses now looks...

    Which one do u advice me.....GT 2006 or Mach1 2004??

    I like the look of the new Mach's especially the shaker hood. But the truth is that the underpinnings are the same since the introduction of the 1979 mustang, except for the switch to control arms, traction loc, and revised spring ratings in the mid 80's. My friends 2002 GT has the exact same...
