Exactly. Tremec has the new Magnum XL with DSRM and back up camera support coming in July. Much better option than any MT82. That's where my money is gonna go and then sell the MT82 to get some cash back.
If you are not racing the car and beating on it, it will be fine. Mine is in my F150 (My Mustang is a manual) and it is pulling way more weight, towing and I race it some at the track (It has a Whipple Stage 2). I serviced it at 25K miles and not one issue to date. Even took it to SickWeek and...
I have a Whipple Stage 2 w/custom tune on my F150 (My Bullitt is NA) and the 10R80 has held up nicely. Took it to SickWeek and raced it 5 days and she never missies a beat. Pretty much my daily as my Mustang is more of my fun car. Plenty of aftermarket support if you do abuse it, so I wouldn't...
KPM has install instructions on their webpage. Gonna install mine this weekend. Looks dead simple and plug and play.

over 500,000 Mustang GT's have been produced since the early 2000teens world wide. Over a 100,000 in the us since 2015. As mentioned, modded cars scare off some folks and then there's the mileage. When I was looking for my C5 a few years back, I wanted to find a stock unmodded car to mod to my...
Spoiled rich kid? That's funny! I am 68 years old and served my time in the military, got out, put myself through school with my GI Bill and then earned every penny I spend. My parents didn't have jack. But they did instill a good work ethic in me. Not everybody with some cash is a "rich kid"...
To each his own, at least it isn't quite as trashy as a soccer mom's honda civic with the entire pep boys catalog of cheesy parts stuck on it! Those make me want to rage with a baseball bat! And of course, you gotta have the chain link tag surround! Type R wanna be! But stock rims? jeezus kid---...
I am sure E85 would take it over 500 but I am keeping it tuned on 93. E85 is available around me but I like the ease of just rolling up anywhere and filling up with some top tier 93 and being done. I have 3 vehicles and don't want to worry about E85 sitting in the fuel system over the winter as...

I am 68 and love the sound of a nice V8 with headers and a good resonated exhaust system. I go to a lot of car shows and see many guys in my age group with their M-whatever, or AMGs and those stupid burble tunes trying to look hip and cool but when I role in with my Bullitt or my C5, I...
C7 is the best looking of the modern era Vettes IMO. I came close to buying one, but I have always loved the 2019/20 Bullitts, so I found a low mile 20 that was stock and bought it. I bought the Bullitt because I wanted a manual to play with and after having my 24 F150 with a Whipple, I really...
There is a bit more loss through the auto than a manual, but that seems a bit low for having headers and a resonator delete with a CAI and a tune. The tune you are running is the FORD Perf tune right? No tuner actually tuned your car, the dyno was just to see what the provided tune got you? Most...
I run Stainless Works w/ their cats and H pipe on my 20 Bullitt. Fit great and have the angled 02 ports. Car is tuned by 5Star and runs great. Kooks are awesome headers but pricey. I have them on my 02 Vette but were installed a few years back before they got all guchi priced!
I am currently running the BG with the MGC additive and it works pretty good. The MT82 will always have a bit of "notchiness" feeling to it, just the way they are.
BG Products Universal MGC
BG It is pretty good. I was using AMSOIL prior to that, which is my usual go to. BG is a little pricey...
I use an HP Tuners MPVI4 and the TDM app on both my Iphone (work phone) and my Android (personal phone). Works great and I can always hook up the laptop to get deep in the tune if needed. I especially like that I can use this set up across multiple cars and trucks by just buying credits from HP...
Got an email back from Tremec saying their new Magnum XL for the 2019+ S550 that supports DSRM and back up camera will be ready to be sold 1 July. If you are looking to do a swap or get your MT82 done in your 2019+ S550, might be the time to go Magnum XL.
I run Stainless Works LTH with GESI cats, Stainless Works H pipe back to my stock Active exhaust on the Bullitt. Car is tuned and I have the Quiet mode set up for the full day, and it is not bad at all on start up. Quiet mode really knocks it down a lot. My F150 has stock manifolds and a SPD Y...
Tremec is releasing the Magnum XL that supports DSRM and back up camera for the 19+ on 1 July. You probably want your trans back before then but worth thinking about before you drop 3ish g's on a MT82 rebuild. Just a thought.
No, it is a bit rowdier on Sport and up on the active exhaust when you put your foot in it. Quiet mode sounds the same. The car pulls much better and I am very happy with the tune. 486/435 to the wheels.
