Let's see 'em. BMR springs + aftermarket wheels. There is another thread for this but it's dominated by OEM wheels and/or the images are dead thanks to photobucket. Would love to see what y'all are doing out there with more aggressive aftermarket wheels on the BMR springs.

I've posted around and over the few years I have owned my GT, but want to get more eyeballs on it in case anyone else has experienced this sound. I have had a hard time getting a dealer to acknowledge it, but am going to continue trying. This happens when the motor is warmed up. There is a...

Howdy y’all. I have a really bad cat smell coming into my car when I run it hard. I also have a strange sound on the drivers side that sounds like a metallic scraping noise. It seems to go away when you start driving, but it’s there at idle when the engine has warmed up. First dealer I went to...

I know I might get some heat on this one but this is an honest question. I love the sound of a Coyote with the right mods ... but a lot of factory LS setups (ie, sport mode on a Chevy SS) sound absolutely incredible. They pop and gurgle and growl far more. What is the mechanic reason for this...

Anyone have experience with this? It looks like the latest-gen SCT programmer. I want a Lund tune but the nGauge looks like a piece of crap. It has wifi and some other nice features. Honestly it's hard to determine what the difference is between this and the X4...

Always cool seeing the cars that snag the spot right in the front. The other day I spotted a sleeper white GT with mismatched drag wheels/tires. Who was it? Are you on here?

Howdy, I live in Michigan so winter is upon us. Fortunately being in Michigan also means there is plenty of E85 around #cornfed I am finally about to make the plunge and get a flex fuel tune. My questions are: How will the engine like the cold E85? Anyone have cold start problems? I...

Figured some folks, particularly those who manufacture parts or want to move parts from their current S550 to a 2018 might be interested in this. Notable is the active exhaust solenoid and a composite oil pan similar to the GT350. I got to sit in one as well and the subtle improvements to the...

http://mustangalleyon9.com/ Anyone planning on attending? I registered for a spot but not sure if I wanna commit to parking there and being there all day long.

To add some context: I have a GT Premium Performance Pack with the leather seats. I'm also a 240lb weightlifter. I'm a big guy with very broad shoulders and big thighs. When I first got my GT, I knew before I finished buying it that two things that needed to be dealt with at some point were...

Once my GT PP engine has warmed up and the idle has reduced to normal a noise starts to come from the motor that sounds like someone shaking a salsa shaker, or like a can of dry beans. It's a whirring shuuuuka shuuuka type noise. It is rhythmic and very consistent. The frequency is maybe 1 or...

Sorry if this is a dumb question but I typically try to avoid giving my car to the dealer. I just noticed some pretty bad rust on the bit that holds the door from swinging wide open, on the passenger side. Should I take this in and have them replace it?

My fiancee just got an STI that already has a Cobb downpipe/exhaust and some other goodies. I'm 99% sure it has a Stage 2 tune on it becuase it hits 20lbs of boost and I think that without a tune, the downpipe would throw a CEL. The car did not come with the accessport, so I have no idea how to...

Hello All, After installing my SP080 springs myself (via the method of lowering the subframe) I got a full alignment. Since then, the car is not really driving great. Subtle steering wheel shimmy while braking at low speeds Tramlining issues? The car tends to wiggle around the road sometimes...

Hey Y'all, I just put the BMR SP080 springs on my performance pack GT. I also put on 25mm spacers on all four corners. Is it me or does the front look a lot lower than the rear? I am pretty much tucking tire in the front while there is a pretty big gap in the rear. I specifically purchased...

No matter what I do, every time I change my oil I make a huge mess when removing the filter. I have a GT PP if that makes a difference. Is there an external oil cooler? It looks like there is some tubing for one where the filter screws in. Anyway, I've tried everything. The first time I...

Sorry for the link-bait title but it's relevant. First off, I know that a tune is an order of magnitude bigger than the sport button. I would never confuse the two. My main question is: what will the sport button do once I've been tuned? Will it essentially become meaningless? Has anyone...

Hey Y'all, Picking up my GT tomorrow morning and I have already started doing research on the aftermarket parts scene. One thing I see a lot of members doing is a "cold air intake" which is really just a cone filter with an opened airbox. I can't imagine this possibly doing anything at all...
