I have had two STIs, NA miata, 02 GT, 03 Cobra, and now a 15 GT all with manuals. I prefer having complete control over lockup between the engine and transmission. I feel the same way with my jeep wrangler when offroad or in traffic. The delay in lockup to get going and then the lack of...
My post earlier was my experience with the decline in quality from Ford.
As for V8s, cold star emissions are easier to meet with small turbo engines that heat up fast and have smaller cylinders. Manufacturers also put the cats close to the heads, integrate the headers into a cast head, etc...
Who doesn't like Negasonic Teenage Warhead? And chimichangas?
I've had three mustangs over the years, and many fords. They started out great. 2002 GT Mustang, no problems for 47,000 miles. 2003 Cobra, awesome car. Melted a piston doing highway runs. $7k later with a teksid shortblock, it...
I have a 2015 GT base model with the MT82 and 3.55 rear. I get 26mpg highway on 93 E10 gasoline. If I use straight 93 gasoline it goes up about to 28mpg.
I track mileage on all my cars every gasoline fill up. Several times this has let me know something was wrong. On my 2015 GT Mustang it...
I installed the new intake yesterday, and the car idles around 630rpm much smoother than before. After 30 miles of driving, the average fuel economy is starting to increase and no codes.
My 2015 GT had been throwing codes P0308 and then eventually P0300 and P0308 for almost a year. I don't drive it that much, and it cleared up on it's own. I thought maybe I had the crank position sensor issue, but I decided to dig in and take the intake off to look at the IMRC system. The...
I've had the P0308 and P0300 (#8 misfire and multiple random misfires) for about a year now on my 2015 GT with about 48,000 miles. I pulled my intake off and found the driver's side IMRC shaft was broken (5,6,7,8 cylinders). My mustang isn't a daily driver, and the codes were clearing up on...
I may be just out of warranty on my 2015 GT. Anyone know how difficult it is to pull the 5.0 intake and check the runners to see if anything is cracked, broken, or stuck? It looks fairly straight forward, but it never is.
My 2015 Mustang GT with 46,000 miles has been throwing the P0308 and P0300 code for a few months now. It sounds exactly like what everyone else in this thread experienced.
Another mustang site talks about "neutral profile relearn" or crank sensor replacement (new o-ring). Apparently the...
I went through a couple exhausts on my 03 Cobra. The first setup was borla stingers with a dr gas x-pipe. That was too loud, so I swapped the borlas for magnaflows to quiet it down. Before I sold the car, I ran my best time at a 1/4 mile drag strip with the stock h-pipe and the magnaflow...
It sounds like I'm going to leave it alone unless I go full retard on the car. My wife will probably keep that from heppening, though.
Many thanks for the patent info and thoughts. I can weld exhaust myself, but I don't have a lift available to make it as easy as I would like.
I bought my used 2015 GT mustang a year ago with 30,000 miles on it. The previous owner had the resonator deleted. The shop that did the work simply cut it out and welded straight pipes in its place. There is no crossover.
Is this a common cheap way to delete the resonator? I'm not...
Use a micro-II fuse tap: https://www.amazon.com/Lumision-SHIPPING-CIRCUIT-FUSE-TAP-TERMINAL/dp/B00OZFNJI6
Position 23 is the bottom right red 10A fuse. The manual said it was an accessory power circuit. I tested it to show it came on with cabin power. I and others use it for a power turn on...
The side trunk liners are held in place by push pins under the back seats. I believe they may be obscured by the plastic in the rear of the car:
After removing the screw on knobs in the rear, the black plastic piece has to be pulled off of the studs and then up and forward. See the...
