Well, I've been a long time GM guy, but I've also had quite a few Mustangs as well. I traded my 14 GT TP car in on a 15 GT PP after driving the 15 Camaro SS 1LE. They wanted 5k more for the 1LE and interest on the loan where Ford had 0 for 72. No brainer and the Mustang had the much nicer...
Well, that was fun. I used a gear wrench (10MM) to get the sound tube off the firewall. Shoved my left arm back there between the header/strut tower and under the ST brace. Took a while, but I got it off. There are no instructions, just a link on their site to pics that were hard for me to...
I gotta pass on my experience with Anthony at Hypermotive and Ken Bjonnes who tunes for Palm Beach Dyno. With my previous tune, I had cold start and cold running driveability issues amongst another issue I won't go into.
It drives much better when cold and seems to run what it should at...
I found a set of 17x8 (correction!) 99-00 Mustang wheels that work great as a cheap rear drag wheel/tire set up. He wants $250 for all 4. I'm in Fuquay Varina, obviously only need two. Looking for someone else who would like two so we can split it.
Looking to replace the OEM pad if there is something that won't start squeaking like a freak in 9k miles and still perform well. I have brand new Ford OEM rotors as well. I daily drive it, might do two or three HDPE events this year if I'm lucky. Thanks for any help.
Probably my only non-automotive performance post! Seriously, I hope everyone has a blessed Christmas! For those of us who believe, Salvation was born today, there will never be a better gift! Emmanuel!
So I work for a dealership and am getting ready to change my MT82 fluid to the infamous BG Synchro shift II. Our rep highly recommended adding the BG Multi Gear Concentrate. Here's their description:
BG MGC® Multi-Gear Concentrate is an advanced gear oil supplement formulated to enhance...
After staring at them in my garage for months knowing I won't have a free weekend til probably winter, I went ahead and paid to have them installed. The guy who owns the shop was a long time Ford tech who I used to work with. He said they were the nicest headers he's ever installed. Great...
I have the SCT with a Lund tune, should I research someone within two hours of Raleigh NC area and get a custom tune or send off for a revision from Lund? It's pretty much stock with the lt's with hf cats and the resonator delete H pipe. I saw substantial gains with a custom tune on my LS1...
So, it's my daily drive with occasional HPDE visits. As much as I'd like a dry traction tire, I can't deal with 13k miles of life. The only dry tire I'm considering is the Bridgestone S04. I also prefer a stiffer sidewall, and I've heard this one isn't all that stiff.
I believe I've...
Kind of trying to decide between these two. Not too many under $1k, so hoping to hear what makes one better than the other. I know thickness of the stainless plays a role, merge collector design, etc. Seems I've read power gains is pretty similar with all of them. I thought I remembered...
Just checked today on 275/40/19's and they are $664 shipped and you get a $60 Visa prepaid card. 40k mileage warranty when you have same size all the way around. Glad I put some rear wheels on the front!

Just saw a super clean 15 or 16 GT with performance pack, lowered, white, grill deleted, long tubes, and MBRP exhaust. It only has 10k miles on it, figured it must have been for a Vette or new Camaro.

Not sure about the track prep, but my 3.73's and Pirellis were not a good combo yesterday. My best pass was 13.38 @ 109.xx on a 2.1 60ft. And I spun like mad in 2nd gear rolling the throttle to the floor. I've never used launch control, but it's starting to sound like I should. I back...
I'm considering trying to "liven" up the sound of my 15 GT soon. Ain't trying to spend stupid money for a terrible sound. These look like good options separately as I've heard they get pretty loud with a reso delete and axleback mufflers. I like the idea of lightening up the car a little. It...
I weighed my 2015 GT PP 300A with 275 9.5" front wheels with a full tank at 3827 lbs. Seemed kind of high to me, but I had nothing else in it other than trivial glove box stuff and change. Weighed it at Roebling Road Raceway. Sounds like the car needs a diet!
I can't say enough praise for Just Track It! Those guys put on a first class event. It's my second HPDE event ever, both were this year at the same track. My first was this spring in my 14 GT TP car. This time I ran my 15 GT PP car. I must say after my first time, I wasn't sure I wanted to...
