Ford Racing has recently released a set of upgraded front control arms with brake cooling diverter fins and (I believe) all spherical bearings. I haven't seen a single post about them, so I wonder if it's something to consider to tighten up the feel of the front end of the car.
I cancelled my order for Power Pack 2. I'm waiting until more people get them installed for real-world reviews; early reviews are mostly good, but not everyone is happy. If I wasn't in California, I'd probably go with the GT350 manifold, throttle body, a CAI, plus headers and a Lund tune over...
I have the 50th anniversary wheels, which are silver finish and a different design than that: you can see them in my exhaust video here:

I think these are 19x9, but correct me if I'm wrong!
Has anyone done this?
My car is a 2015 non-PP GT Premium with the silver finish 19" wheels, 255 A/S Pirelli tires. I found specs that indicate the existing rim is 19x9, so would I unmount the 255 tires and mount sticky 275s for a square setup with a lot more grip. Any thoughts?
If I may ask...where did this diagram come from? :) Is it the service manual? Will definitely be asking my shop to do this when I get the track pack installed next month!
Mitsumoto H-Pipe just arrived last night...box had a hole in it but all appeared to be in perfect condition when I opened. Will post a picture or two later on :) I know it's just a piece of steel piping that no one but your mechanic will ever see, but it sure is perty! :)
Anyone have any recommendations on a reputable shop to install the FR Track pack and BMR CB005? I'm not mechanically inclined, and I don't really own the tools to do it myself. :) Northern California/ SF Bay/ Sacramento area
Thanks! That will pretty much complete the first round of suspension/ bracing upgrades for mine. Next for me would be sticky rubber and probably new rims at the same time for a 275 square setup.
Did you also install the strut tower brace on yours? My car is also automatic (2015 model) and does not even have the metal cowl brace, so the front end is extremely wobbly even in normal street driving.
Looks good! Thinking of getting the same kit plus CB005 for my 2015 non-PP GT in addition to the Ford Strut Tower and Cowl brace kit. Where did you get the lateral locking collars?
Your comment about bumpsteer makes me nervous- I thought with a drop of only 1" camber plates and bumpsteer...
