What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

How do you like the P51 wheels? What sizes did you go? I'm seriously looking at them but can't find any reviews. The other option is Forgestar F14s

These are actually the LMR versions. I really like them, and they are sub 25lb wheels. These wheels are fantastic. Immediate improvement in handling. So much so that I am needing to redo some suspension components to be able to handle the extra speed I can carry through a corner and stay balanced. As far as I can tell, these are exactly like the P51 wheels, just a bit cheaper.

I got those from S550Carbon.com

Thanks!

We have always found that the 160 is always the better option for performance!

Added some Ford Performance door sills.

[MENTION=11090]Livernois Motorsports[/MENTION]: I've already got your tuner. Are there any benefits powerwise if I added the 160 thermostat? Would the tune need to change?

Yes sir you will need to update your tuner by sending in a tune request, go ahead and give me a call if you would like to place the order for the thermostat! 313-561-5500 extension 104, my name is Cody

I got you guys both covered! :cheers:

Blowfish Racing bracket and fluid change for MT82. So far no more lockout of 4th on 7k shifts and shifting feels direct. No more nibbling, grinding, or difficulty with gear changes either. It simply goes in and out without issue. Huge relief as I thought the clutch was dead after several instances of lockout and the clutch pedal hitting the floor (trying to grab 4th at 6-7k).

Was previously using the energy suspension shifter bushing in my stock bracket with the factory fill. On the street there was some occasional nibbling in and out of gears and sometimes what felt like resistance trying to get into reverse but fine for spirited DD duty. On the track, 1-3 shifts were fine but nothing would get 4th to engage; not even dropping the rpms back to 6k. I was stuck going through the traps at 6.5-7k in 3rd gear.

There is some added vibration to the shifter handle but it's not really noticeable unless my hand is on the shifter. Since it vibrates more, my reverse collar occasionally rattles (mostly around 3k in first gear) but other than that nothing negative to speak of. Will try to fix the loose collar noise over the weekend. If unsuccessful may spring for the steeda collar to see if that remedies it.

Funny ... PM me as I'd like to know what performance # changes we're talking about here by swapping the thermostat (if negligible, not worth it then). Can't call Livernois now but may tomorrow.
