  1. For those who removed their clutch spring w/o putting another one in, any long-term issues?

    I heard that no spring is bad for the clutch and blah blah. Maybe it is? I removed it about 30,000 miles ago and so far it's good. What's your experience been?
  2. Just got an MGW installed. Review, with some questions.

    Got the white pad installed. Quieter, less NVH. Feels great! And has loosened up so reverse isn't as stiff. I have the very occasional failure to go into reverse, but I think that has to do more with user error.
  3. Just got an MGW installed. Review, with some questions.

    I believe that they put the sound deadening in, everything else seems good. The nvh seemed to lessen on the second drive and it already seems to loosen up. First is further than it was before, like further left, but I think it's just a much more well defined gate as before it was loosey...
  4. Just got an MGW installed. Review, with some questions.

    Got it installed by a shop. Really nice feeling shifter. I didn't realize how much slop the stock one had until I got this. But it's TIGHT. Like when I would casually put it in first before, I have to very deliberately put it into first and into second. I had some rocky first to second gear...
  5. I'm getting an MGW X-Spec shifter installed, any other complimenting mods to make at the same time?

    Does the trans bushing help even with the MGW Race Spec? I thought the MGW was all that was needed on the trans end of thing, except for fluid, and clutch stuff.
  6. I'm getting an MGW X-Spec shifter installed, any other complimenting mods to make at the same time?

    '16 GT with the Ford Racing Power Pack 2 and Performance Pack. Getting the MGW X-spec flat stick. Excited! I don't really slam gears too much, but I dislike the crunchy feeling with the stock shifter. I'm getting a shop to install the shifter, but while I'm there, anything else that's...
  7. to flat stick or not to flat stick?

    What is the height of the flat stick versus factory shifter?
  8. Does anybody make a good long shifter for the 15-17 MT82 similar to the old Hurst competition?

    Are there any modern longer shifters for the 15-17 MT82 similar to the old Hurst competition? Doesn't have to be curved towards the driver but I do like a long handle shifter. I see Barton's Hybrid 3 may be a candidate though I am not sure how much taller it is than stock. I'm not sure if...
  9. Just took car for service...now there's a slight burning smell at idle, and a wet spot (see pic)

    Ford dealership, same one I got the car from. Yeah that side looks oily too, though what's on the floor may just be from the wet snow/rain dripping down. The lower arm though definitely looks like it's got something going on.
  10. Just took car for service...now there's a slight burning smell at idle, and a wet spot (see pic)

    Thank you! I went and checked it out. Can't reach it unfortunately, too tight of a fit, especially with the Power Pack air filter box being so big. live in a condo so nowhere to remove it sadly.
