My 2022 GT with the below mods is making a "chirping" sound in the rear at low speeds over even slightly uneven/rough pavement. It's a lower pitch than a true squeak. Almost like the repeated, short whine/whimper sound that dogs make in protest.
Upper shock mounts damaged or loose? Seems...
Since the S550 Mach 1 uses the same subframe as the S550 GT500, I would think the differential bushings are tough enough to handle the Mach 1's much lower torque levels. Has anyone torn them? Is it worth installing polyurethane inserts to provide additional stiffness to prevent damage, as is...

Car is a 2022 GT 300A car with no options and the MT82-D4 transmission. Bought it new on December 29, 2022. It now has 8800 miles on the odometer.
Symptoms:
Hesitation and lockout when *downshifting* into 2nd gear. Initially, this never used to happen, then...

Bought off eBay as a 1,000 mile take-off part from a 2019 GT. Didn't end up needing it. Includes cold air box, lid, MAF sensor, and factory air filter. $99 + actual shipping cost
I have the following installed and it really shifts great, aside from the stated issue:
- Steeda trans mount bushing insert
- Steeda shifter base bushing bracket
- Steeda short throw street shifter (still body mounted)
- Steeda 35 lb clutch spring
- Motul Multi DCTF
- 1.1 lb solid stainless...
Based on the below summary from Optimum Performance Mustang, I am thinking my 2022 base GT has the "Mach 1" style, improved front hubs. Photos of mine attached from when I did the Bilstein B6 installation. Note the lack of internal splines (like G350/R and mag ride cars) and also no center nut...
Just a quick endorsement for Rob Shoemaker who recently dialed in my basic, E85 Gen 3 NA tune. I sent him data logs on a Saturday night and he sent me a revision late Sunday. He answered all my questions, to include those on future build ideas. He was very timely and pleasant to deal with...
When running on E85 exclusively, what do we believe are the ideal temperature ranges for these values in deg F?
CHT 190-200?
ECT 180-190?
Oil 210-220?
With the OEM oil cooler (i.e., oil preheater) it's basically impossible to *maintain* oil temperatures above ECT and CHT. Can be done...
Those of us with a 2022 or 2023 GT are familiar with the changes Ford made to the CAI to accommodate the revised carbon trap and tube insert with flow straightening grid.
I was curious how the old vs. new intake tube inner diameters compared at the MAF location, both with the '22 insert in...
If you could design your own "Street/Drag Packs" (SDP), that could be ordered as OEM option packages from Ford, what would they contain?
My goal is a combination of street and drag performance such that the car can launch aggressively from a dog but can still turn and be engaging to drive with...
