That’s still a damn lot of money for something that not even the manufacturer can install right and something that only changes the exhaust sound. They are still charging top dollar for something they didn’t even redesign or change anything other than welding another tip on.
It’s funny that most people are saying it’s install error every time for this. In THIS particular case, yes he needs to do a better job aligning BUT the fact still remains that even with Corsa themselves installing the exhaust on their own lift, the 18+ kit fitment is off. They have a...
I don't think that precludes wanting more, rather you have to look at what you are getting out of it. A few hundred dollars for extra power you only feel when revving to 7500 isn't as beneficial on a DD as a mod that picks up even half the power but over the entire rev range along with a...
That's ultimately up to him and what he wants to spend money on. I drive my car harder than a DD and I don't currently see the value in porting my intake.
I ran staggered wheels for years on my trans am and didn't really notice much of a difference switching to a square setup. I do some back road jaunts but I don't think I pushed my car hard enough to make a difference between the 2. Canyon driving or open track I think there would be but for me...
I promise you both I can read dyno charts just fine. If you read the post by the OP that I quoted he said its basically a DD that he doesn't race much. While ultimately up to him, spend the time and money to do a swap that gains nothing down low over a stock intake doesn't seem worth it to me...
I'll never understand why someone would want to live there. Everything that people argue in favor of it, can be found elsewhere around the country with none of the nonsense. The sooner it breaks off the better lol.
Judging by the dyno charts posted on page 1, I don't even think a 2018 intake is worth it. 30whp in an area you aren't normally in unless you are racing seems like a waste to me. Porting one is for sure a waste of money. I think its funny they are even suggested for the amount of time and...
For the record you are questioning the 10 speed reliability while saying that you think the 6 speed manual is reliable? Driving dynamics aside, there's no way the 6 speed is better at anything unless you are talking about a Shelby.
Also I don't see how its overrated when it performs on par...
The coolant might be getting up to temp but that doesn't mean the oil is. Nor is the transmission fluid. Both of which need to burn off the excess moisture. I can drive all the way to work (about 15 miles city and highway) and those temps are just barely getting to operating temperature...
I stored my Trans Am for almost 2 years with an almost empty tank of ethanol free 91 in it. Finished putting it back together and started driving it. Didn't even notice a performance difference between the old gas and new gas.
Also, make sure if you are storing it that you do NOT start it...
Hell for that matter I put 50k VERY hard miles on my 2016 Fusion and routinely went 10-12k on motocraft oil changes from the local dealership. Never had an ounce of oil related troubles from that car. I think people think and worry way too much about oils. As long as you have something in...
I think the argument about weight is getting quite a bit out of hand, both here and in the car community in general. First off, 99% of these cars will never be used on any sort of a track. They are marketed as such IMO solely because that's how the magazines test them and automakers still...
Yeah that would be I guess Sync 2. The Sync 3 that's in the 18s works much easier and would be even easier for you with android auto. But that's up to you if you want the touchscreen or not. The base radio minus the fact that its missing satellite radio is decent enough for me for now.
I miss the auto climate for remote starts because my fusion had that. Does your wife's explorer have Sync 2 or Sync 3? If its Sync 2, the system in the mustang will be much better because you can use Android Auto if you plug your phone in. That might make a big difference on ease of use...
Mine is a base with the only option being the black accent package. I wish I had the 301A package for the toggles but if you are getting a tune of any sort (like with a Whipple) that takes care of that without having the extras the 301A gets you. I would still get it however if you want the...
I wish that stupid plate didn't light up on my 18. I don't see why its there in the first place. There's one on the gauge cluster and another on the shift knob itself. Why do I need a 3rd place telling me what gear I'm in?
The crossovers at that point are only for sound. They are too far back to offer any sort of scavenging effect like they are designed to do. As for power, a full 3” catback has shown not to pick up power even with no mufflers. There’s no way simply deleting the resonator will do anything but...
