If you think these things aren't seeing redline on the test drive you're crazy. Salesman punched it hard in both cars I test drove before handing me the wheel.
I figure these engines are working a whole lot harder in the pickups than they are in a light Mustang, so a little extra pedal isn't...
Bought the car new, no aftermarket tune.
I understand the 1000 rpm buffer with as quickly as this thing revs, but with the 10A in sport mode, it's living half it's life with the shift light flashing on a back road.
Might be time for a tune....
Might have to do that before aggressive driving. Can always chancpge back for the day to day. Wish I could get rid of it all together tho, seems kind of pointless with the 10A.
I've gone through the track apps to see if I could find it, but no luck. The redline on the gauge shows about 7500, but the light comes on at 6000-6500. It's crazy - spirited driving on a back road the shift light is almost always on - even with the sport mode downshifts.
Different strokes I suppose. I grew up around drag cars and muscle cars that all had plenty of meat on the tires on 15" rims. Maybe I'll paint my taller sidewalls so I don't lose cred with the group. Blang blang!
Looks like I'll be ok with the 255/45R19 fronts and 275/45R19 rears but not much more than that.
At least they'll be about an inch taller front and rear and fill out the wheel wells a bit better. Nitto Motivos should fit the bill nicely, and with a 60k mile warranty I can get the rears...
LOL - nope. Car is great, just the stock tires are greasy and slippery when cold which is all the time right now.
Performance pack may not have been the perfect option package for me, but brakes, LSD, shock tower brace, and bigger rad were too nice to pass up. Wheels looked better than...
I've got the 2018 Mustang GT with the performance pack and 10 sp auto, and when the car gets over 6500 rpm, the gauges turn red. I've been told it's a "Shift light feature", but TBH in the auto car it's just annoying and distracting when driving fast on a back road in sport mode.
I've looked...
I'm looking to fit the TALLEST tires (aspect ratio) that I can on a 2018 Mustang GT Performance Pack with the 19" wheels.
Streets in Vegas are greasy as hell, and the Michelin pilot sports are like a pig on roller skates when it's cold outside. Plus the broken pavement out here is rough as...
