Looks great! I agree, couldn't live without AA or Carplay. What app do you use for music? And bro, what floor mats do you have? they look FAT
Currently using Prime Music but I think it's time to move on. It used to be decent but it seems like they gimped it in order to push people to pay for the unlimited version. Going to try out Tidal and Spotify.

Drove it!!! lol

Beautiful day out here. Sunny and 52 degrees for the middle of December.
Drove it and fueled her up before heading home.
I did the same today! Reinstalled my Ford Performance power kit (much better results now that I have the correct spark plugs) and did some Christmas shopping. Traffic was crazy but the weather was really nice.

Also, not sure why this is happening with the FP Catch Can. It's not making a huge mess, but I shouldn't be getting oil spray up the hose like this. Maybe it's just from the extreme cold weather lately.

But there’s that much salt on the roads, it’s not only the DA that could be classed as ‘under the sea’ … :frown:

As title suggests, this thread will be for 2015 Mustang owners to post pics what they worked on today, show off what they have done to their car recently, etc. Share and it might inspire some ideas for others to do on their Mustangs too.

I'll be getting a tint first thing in the morning and perhaps a car wash, will post pictures shortly!

So, what did you do to your 2015 Mustang today?
Part Ex it for an AMG as the wings went rusty and Trust Ford wanted £2.5K to replace them.

When I had the FP oil separator and FP tune on my car, my CAM sensor on the drivers side would leak oil around the O ring. Since removing both, this problem stopped. Is it possible the FP separator screen increases crank case pressure? Take the separator off and see if the problem goes away.
I don't see any oil spray in your pic but I do see that dust has stuck to some oil residue.
Interested to know how your car runs with the tune back on with the new plugs. Heat range 7's? Are you going to do any logging for KR?

That's awesome man.
Hopefully the good weather continues for us all!!

Any restriction in the PCV line probably increases crankcase pressure a little. In this case I'm not sure if the restriction is the problem, or it's just cold o-rings that don't fully seal until they have a little heat in them. Either way I guess it's irrelevant since I can't use it with the FP tune anyway :cwl: I'll have to put the Mishimoto one back on at some point and compare.

As far as how the car is running, it's great so far. No ping as per the ear meter. Of course it's not hot right now, but before I was getting it nearly all the time as soon as the car was warmed up. I will log it again after a few drive cycles and see where the KR is. I suspect it's still going to have positive KR sometimes due to being limited to 91 fuel, but that's totally normal. No different than the stock car on 87 octane. Supposedly going down a heat range can give you up to 100C of lower plug tip temperature and 10 degrees of timing, so it hopefully makes all the difference and I can close the chapter on this.

Maybe if you get bored one day you can try swapping all your plugs for the 95605's (or 94862) and retrying the kit again. One of the plugs may just be defective where the copper core/insulator transfers heat to the head and it doesn't show up until you push the timing up a bit. Something you won't be able to visually see but would cause issues.

I see no real sign of any oil leakage going on.

The outside of the fitting got a mist of oil on it which is where the dust/dirt sticking to it came from. With that said, I agree in that there's no real leakage to speak of. I was just curious as to what could have caused that small amount to escape.

Drove it. Nice drive to help out a friend. Had a charger try to mess with me. But I'm not that kind of person. Just minding my business with wet roads.

Keep us in the loop on the end result :like:
Definitely a solid piece. Will get everything together either tonight or tomorrow.

Scored these headers for 800 Canadian brand new in box. Catted stainless power headers off marketplace. Guy had two sets. Decided he wanted to go a different route with his Mach1 and American muscle sent him two, returning from Canada was too much for them. Couldn’t pass up the deal. A little present for myself.

Awesome pick up! They are definitely going to wake up the car
