Pretty sure I have that covered

I put the Ford Performance tune in my 2021 Mustang GT 6 speed with 42,800 miles. Oh my God it’s so much easier to shift with the extra torque. I can’t believe it.

It's been a long time since I had mine go put on but yes I agree, it was an awesome improvement and probably my favorite thing I did to the car.
I got mine a few months after I got the car, over 6 years with it now.

It's an insane value for all the improvements it offers.

Installed the Ford Performance Lowering Springs (#399319 A/M) - only wanted a 20mm drop (not slammed) and these were the ticket. After crawling around on the garage floor under the car doing all four corners (4hrs later), they were done. Also installed the rear J&M sub-frame alignment kit while doing the rear springs. To cap it all off, installed the Baer Claw performance driller and slotted rotors (for looks) all the way around. Busy Saturday!
Note: the windows look dark but the front are 35% The rears are 20%
Note2: Used ForScan to re-calibrate the VDM ride height
Note3: MagneRride

I designed this

It's a riser and a mount for the Steeda gas pedal cover. The riser fits in place of the stock pedal cover and uses the same hardware. I made this to raise the gas pedal up by about 20mm relative to the brake for easier heel and toe. I also didn't want to drill my stock pedal to mount the Steeda cover.

Feel free to make your own if you fancy it. I'm just designing one right now that doesn't use the Steeda cover and is just a riser. Will post that when it's done and tested.

One point though. If you do print one of these, make sure you print in ASA, ABS, or Nylon. Something that can withstand the heat of a car interior.

I checked for any oil drips from new OEM drain plug I used when I changed the oil last week and replaced the old leaky original drain plug. No drips after 1 week!

The rubber seal on the old one had seen better days but I guess 11 years of oil changes will do that.

Dark Horse Spoiler? If so got any other pictures? Install process? Thinking about swapping out my GT OEM for this.

thats pretty damned good! Like the no drill approach to it as well, same as OEM

I had some squeaking coming from the rear end. On close inspection we found the toelink to knuckle bearing had some movement in it. I had fitted Steeda toelink and Ford per bearing 6 years ago. Done about 80k on it since . I changed both sides and still had another different squeak which I found was the other end of the Steeda toelink bearing. There's no play in it, so I cleaned it put so rubber grease in it. Cleaned off excess. No more squeaking

Correct - Dark Horse Spoiler.

Install - removing the OEM wasn't difficult. Some painters tape around the OEM wing then fishing line and then a 3M stripe off wheel (drill) made quick work of the leftover adhesive. I did use the stock wing OEM studs with some blue Loctite. What I didn't do was drill holes in the trunk lid for the two additional attachment points. I used 3M tape on the outer edges Instead of the "felt" type strips that came with the spoiler/wing. Will it hold at 180+mph - we might just see at the Texas Mile. Does it hold at 120mph.. Magic 8-ball says - absolutely.

Cool spoiler-wing. Where/how did you source it?

Where would the additional holes have been in the deck lid?

Not today, but a few weekends ago I modeled up and printed and organizer for a .50cal ammo can to organize my boostane shots and funnel.

And yes, I'm aware shots cost more than the bigger cans, but i hate messing with measuring at the gas pump, plus this keeps the smell down in the car.

I've got an Explorer ST as well. They'll scoot!
