I traded in a beautiful 2013 Track Pack GT at 2000 miles because of that shitty MT-82. swore never to get a manual Mustang again as long as that was the only manual transmission available

most folks dont realize there is no direct mechanical connection between the shifter and the automatic transmission in cars anymore. it's all electric. A rotary switch would take some time to get used to but eventually would feel natural and lead us to use the paddles more.

my response to that spray foam stunt would be to stuff 2 part epoxy in all their keyholes I could find. front door, mailbox, car door. trunk lock etc etc

I never regretted buying a gotta have it green Mustang. in fact my only regret is getting rid of it. in a sea of Black and Blue Mustangs the grabber lime is a nice change

I have to agree with GreenS550. on an unmodded 2018 and later there is no need or advantage to getting tuned other than if a person is going E85. now my 2011 and 2013 GT's could have certainly used some enhancing to make the transmission and throttle response better.

I'm agonizing over this same set of choices right now. I like the idea of instant off idle torque of the Whipple and that Beefcake dude has one hell of a deal going on them right now. but I love the concept on the fly adjustability of the Hellion as well as the sleeper portion. nothing like...

if the lines are only melting where they are connected to the wastegate then it sounds like the wastegate is getting hot.

did you buy the car at one of those buy here-pay here lots? some places like that install GPS remote kill switches in case you miss yo payment dog

bought new 2 1/2 years ago and have 4352 miles on it

lol, not unreasonable at all. ask the many guys who have had warranty denied because of a tune..

the tune may not have anything to do with a failure but if they find it while going through warranty checkout process it will surely be a factor in warranty coverage. i'd say the risk factor is a bit higher than your estimate.

are you willing to risk drivetrain warranty just to get faster shifts?

I have an 18 GT PP A10 car that I've owned 2 1/2 years and driven 4400 miles. I miss having an S197 GT and am strongly thinking of dumping the 18 and buying one should I happen to run across the right car.. around here it's rare to see a low mileage 11-14 A6 GT that isnt modded to death. I've...

absolutely, Torque is what makes a car fun to drive everywhere but the track

i'd be double impressed if the patient could make that bulb light up..lol
