    Little help with exhaust options please

    I just had the Roush axle-backs installed today. At least 5x louder than stock (I think). Amazing sound. Zero drone. Great quality.

    Rear axle purge valve leak

    So I took my car in for it's first oil change yesterday (4,700 miles). The car was up in the air and I was looking around, when I noticed the rear axle was wet on the driver's side of the diff. Apparently, on the 2010-11 cars, there is a little spring-loaded valve on the top of the axle to...

    Blind Spot Mirrors for 2010 models

    Get some 2011 mirrors? :shrug: Heck, I'd be tempted to trade you. I hate them.

    Installed my Magnaflow Axle Backs

    Thanks! Those are actually my winter "beater" rims. LOL I have the Brembo wheels which are 19". And snow tires for 19" are REALLY expensive...about $1,100. So the guys at Discount Tire said they could get me into 18" wheels WITH Blizzaks...for about the same price. "Not possible," I said...

    New 5.0 Owners With CAI/Tunes

    I'm kind of afraid to use full throttle in gears 1,2 and 3 right now. :panic: I think it's too cold out for that on summer tires.

    Installed my Magnaflow Axle Backs

    I'm going to Roush Friday morning to get mine (and installed). Had them on my 2007...and there was drone at 1750rpm. Glad to hear they have no drone now. :)

    New 5.0 Owners With CAI/Tunes

    Thank you. Is this called out in the owner's manual, by chance? Or somewhere online?

    New 5.0 Owners With CAI/Tunes

    Another reply...heh.. I just installed my Bama tunes that I got from AM. I installed the 93 race tune (also have 91 Perf, and 87 Street). I found it a bit "odd" as the tune was loading...the gauges would do some fluttering and the engine would do some clunking (even though it was off)...

    New 5.0 Owners With CAI/Tunes

    Kinda related question, as I found this on Steeda's site: YouTube - 2011 Mustang GT 5.0L 1/4 Mile Times w/ Steeda CAI - Only 11.96 ! Notice the tach turns RED when he hits redline. Is this a "tune" feature or stock feature of the stick 5.0s? I assume it only works when the lights are on...

    2011 HID Color Question

    Thank you for that clarification. Good to know. I don't really use the fogs with the HIDs unless it's super dark or side street, etc. I usually start with the pimp lights, then go to fog lights, then to HIDs, then to fogs + HIDs for reasons mentioned above.

    2012 Adjustable Steering

    I put my car into "sport" mode the other day. I would think even at slower speed the wheel would tighten up, but I couldn't tell anything. I turned it off as I got on the highway...as it was 25º out and I was on my summer tires. :nice:

    Jacking points for a 2010-2011?

    I'd say, "check the owner's manual." My 2011 GT didn't come with a jack, since I have the Brembo package. I do have a floor jack (and I got an OEM jack off Craigslist)...as I just installed the Brembo wheels the other day. Same 4 corner jack points as 2005-2011.

    2011 HID Color Question

    I think what I'm experiencing might be due to air temps (cold). When things warm up I'll test it again. Basically, they stay "yellow-ish" for up to 2 or so seconds before they go white/blue.

    2011 HID Color Question

    I clearly know the difference between color and actual temps. I'm asking if anyone notices the same thing I do when they turn on their lights.

    2012 Adjustable Steering

    I have yet to turn off my traction control, or try the "sport mode". Perhaps I will try it today after work...even though it's only 30º outside. :notnice:
