So I got my first set of mods on the car this week - first up was the Solo Performance Mach XV catback exhaust to replace what was effectively a straight pipe with some glass packs that the prior owner did. I don't have true baseline numbers, and theres a lot of correction for altitude and the...
I'm slowly losing my mind trying to fix this issue - I've posted some other threads but so far not gotten anywhere.
2017 Mustang GT Base with Manual, 35K miles, acquired approximately 10 days ago. It still has factory bumper to bumper warranty.
Has new Michelin Pilot Sport AS3+ tires.
Has had 3...
Background: I got a 2017 Mustang GT last week on Friday, has 35K miles (still in bumper to bumper warranty). The selling dealer put new Pilot Sport AS3 tires and did an alignment.
I drove the car 500 miles from Oklahoma back home to Colorado. The entire drive, whenever I let off the throttle...
Just had an alignment done. rear toe was out of spec, but did not fix issue. Alignment tech could also feel it even at just 30-40mph. It's really bad at 80+. I have new Pilot Sport AS3+ tires and the pressures are all good. 2017 about 35K miles.
I'm going to schedule a dealer appt but they...
Finally picked up my new to me car today - 2017 GT base manual ruby red, 35K miles, still have 1,000 miles left of factory bumper to bumper warranty. I'm a little disappointed with the cosmetics - it needs some serious paint correction and touchup, much more so than I could tell from pictures...
Just doing some research for now and future activities.
Picking up a '17 GT with about 30K on the clock this Friday. Supposedly the transmission shifts well with no issues, but I'm sure it will break on me eventually. I'm planning to do MGW, fluid, and clutch spring right from the get go. Had...
tl;dr: title.
I'm back and want to get a GT. I'd prefer Ruby Red. I don't care so much about the interior but I guess the larger screen would be nice. Open to pretty much anything.. ruby red with a manual is the preference for now. Prefer an unmolested car - something clean well taken care of...
Hi all,
I'm looking into meth injection for sick gainz, but never used such a system and have a few questions?
1. Do any kits specific to the EBM currently exist, if so where?
1.5. Are these kits easy to install?
2. What HP gains can be expected when using meth injection on an otherwise stock...
What are we to do with the transmission fluid in the autos on these S550s?
Pan drop and fill every 30K? The force flush bullshit?
I've never had an auto and I know its such a contentious topic so I'm trying to figure out what to do.
I traded in a modern sedan for my Mustang that would literally FREEZE it's passengers with extreme cold.
My Mustang's AC doesn't cool me down, even in a 15 minute drive.
Any one else have a subpar experience with their AC?
I bought the Mishimoto Oil Separator from American Muscle last weekend, and I received it on this last Friday. Last night I pulled the car into the garage and jacked it up, ready to do the advertised "15 minute install".
What a joke.
The instructional video Mishimoto provides online is...
I tried to install my Mishimoto catch can this evening, and it is a very tight squeeze (read: not a 15 minute install as advertised). I was able to get the crank case --> catch can line installed after putting the car on a lift, but the catch can --> intake manifold line is a pain in the rear...
The service interval for the transmission fluid in the automatic is 150K miles, aka "lifetime" fluid. This doesn't sit very well with me, so I'd like to start a thread on a sooner service interval and get some feedback from A/T owners.
From what I've heard the A/T "flush" services offered by...
So... as a CAI is not a closed system, I am concerned about the wet and winter driving. If it rains in and on the intake, can that cause problems or is it 100% weather safe?
My local Quick Lane is $39 for a semi-synthetic oil change and filter (6 qts) or just $12.50 for labor and disposal if I bring my own oil and filter.
I used to do oil changes myself but these prices cannot be beat. For once I am genuinely surprised!
Anyone else inquired about prices for...
I just wanted to write a quick thread with my impressions on the '15 EcoBoost Mustang with an A/T. Mine is a base model with the 17" wheels, Magnetic Metallic in color. Only option is the automatic transmission which I chose after so many issues with the manual MT82 in my '14 v6.
The Good...
My dealer failed to adjust the tire pressure on delivery of my new Mustang. The door sill states 32psi recommended for my tires/wheels, so I adjusted the tires down from 45psi to 32psi.
After a bit of settling it seems like they are now at 31psi on 3 corners and 32psi on the last corner...
