    3650 TSB and lower fluid level

    Just wanted to post my experience in messing with lower, different fluid levels with the 3650 tranny. I got a copy of the TSB that applies to the 3650 owners complaining about gear clash/grind on the 1-2 and 2-3 shift especially when cold. Part of the TSB recommends using regular Mercon ATF...

    3:73s and couldnt be happier

    I would never even bother with anything less than 4.10s personally. 4.10s are completely fine for DD. And what's the big deal with snow and 4.10s? Your rear tires don't get slippery-er when you get 4.10s! Start out in second gear when you are driving in snow and it's all the same as with my...

    Getting midpipe installed-what else do I need?

    Glad you like the pipe. So, how did you find out that JBA makes the pipe for MRT? MRT wouldn't tell me . . . I was fairly certain it was actually Magnaflow, but they may just manufacture the cats. Yeah, the sound is killer but like you said, I wouldn't say it's too loud by any means. Yet...

    Can I use the MAF housing from an 02 GT with my MAF sensor from an '00?

    I am aware the MAF and IAT sensor became integrated into the same sensor in 2002. I also heard from someone that the housing might be different - specifically where the sensor drops into the tubing (the post.) Jackie - My brother has his stock MAF sensor and a stock MAF housing. Only...

    Can I use the MAF housing from an 02 GT with my MAF sensor from an '00?

    Just curious if you can use the '02 MAF housing with the '00 MAF Sensor. This isn't for my car - it's for a 2000 GT.

    Optima Red Top Battery

    That's a killler little battery! What's the coldest temps you've used it in? I store my stang from Mid-December until Mid-March. It definitely sees a few 28 degree mornings in December and March. I'd love to go with a lighter battery instead of relocating my battery to the trunk.

    Getting midpipe installed-what else do I need?

    You don't need anything but a new gasket - which MRT supplied for me when I bought my MRT catted h-pipe. You are going to love the sound - it's the same set-up I have. By the way, skip the MILs for now unless you already bought them - my car never threw a MIL with the catted MRT pipe. $75...

    Popping from exhaust.

    Yup. When you first start your car, it runs a very rich mixture. The colder the weather, the richer the mixture. That's extra gasoline shooting down your manifolds into your h-pipe and igniting. My set-up does the same thing when cold if I rev it - something I never do anymore. If I want to...

    Buy a MAC Straight Shot Plenum?

    It depends what your goals are. If you want the quickest route to better ETs, I'd get some 4.10s, a speedcal to correct the speedo and odometer, and a good set of drag radials (I like my Nittos.) A good set of subframe connectors might also help you hook a little better and be more consistent...

    MRT H-Pipe ?

    Well, I'd care only because then I'd have to buy MIL eliminators or get a chip/tune to shut off the rear O2 sensors. I used to think "that's just the cost of getting a mid-pipe - even a catted mid-pipe", and then MRT came out with their pipe and most people never get a MIL. Apples to apples, I...

    Right-Rear Rattle - Help me identify what is rattling!!!

    I have the same rattle coming from the right rear. Although I haven't tried to isolate it yet because it only shows up at start up in cold weather. Then it seems to disappear. My initial vote would be the seatbelts or the rear window trim/window itself.

    MRT H-Pipe ?

    Curious - I noticed you have a catted Bassani X-pipe. Did you get a MIL?

    Do 4.10s ever get annoying?

    No.

    MRT H-Pipe ?

    I installed the MRT catted H-pipe this past spring. I give it a huge thumbs up. :nice: Here's why: 1.) Killer sound with my deltaflow flowmaster two-chambers 2.) Perfect fitment/no install problems 3.) No MIL, unlike many people who have purchased the Bassani catted X-pipe. I've...

    WARNING!!! Predator Tune May Be LEAN...

    Very interesting post. I often wonder whether or not many tuners just say, "yeah, your car was running really rich" just to say they did something. Consider this hypethetical example: You just install an off-road X or H pipe. Sooner or later, the MIL is tripped and the car goes into a...

    Mach 1 vs. '05 Mustang GT (from an owner's perspective)

    I enjoyed your review of your new 05 GT. I actually went to the largest car dealer in the nation today to check out the new GT and see if I could swing a test drive. The dealer had 2 5-speed GTs; they wouldn't let me test drive it unless I sat down with them to "run some numbers". I found...

    Is there an easy way to clean DR gunk off your rear fenders?

    Thanks guys. I should have thought about using bug and tar remover. I'll give that a try next time. Wd-40? Man that stuff works for everything!

    Is there an easy way to clean DR gunk off your rear fenders?

    I can't recall for the life of me what I used to get this off my car previously. I used gasoline and a rag today, which did remove most of it, but I'm wondering if there's a better way!
