Hey guys, Iāve been stalking this forum for a while and have wanted to do a B&O sub swap for my 2018 Mustang, Iām planning to take the B&O sub box and install the JL Audio 10TW3-D4 alongside a JL Audio XD600/1v2 amplifier. The sub is rated up to a 400W RMS and the amp will put out 400W at...
New catted downpipe is installed, Iām absolutely loving the sound, some turbo spool and a small amount more exhaust noise.
Now Iām specifically looking for the Borla Touring catback, if anyone knows of one for sale lmk š
Hereās hereās the OEM downpipe, flex point was destroyed.
One of the very few issues Iāve had, the purge valve has been replaced twice and then this issue with the cat. Otherwise only ever been maintenance regularly and no problems ever.
Glad to hear the quality is good, I have their charge pipes for my Whipple intercooler and havenāt had any issues...
Issue was a cat that cracked at the mesh flex point, was allowing air to leak, making the noise and smell. Just ordered a new CVF catted downpipe to fix, did early next day air, so should hopefully have installed tomorrow.
Ordering the LPFS, I had just heard for some people it caused issues when they swapped. Everything else is fresh on this car, purge valve done about 10K miles ago and trans fluid swap, diff fluid and spark plugs every 35-40K, AMSOIL SS every 3-5K so I shouldnāt be a maintenance issue with this...
Hey, thank you for the reply. I have ForScan that I can connect to a laptop, am I able to monitor it that way? Otherwise is there another way youād recommend?
The Air/Fuel ratio stays around 14.0-14.3 while idling which itās always been and idles perfectly smooth even when making the noise...
Hey everyone, Iām having a weird sputtering sound coming from my car (video below), most noticeable under acceleration but the idle noise is changed too. Iām assuming an exhaust or turbo issue, it started very light and has gotten worse with time, I also notice it smells like it running rich...
Hey guys, I have a full blown Widebody Shelby GT500 front end on my Convertible Mustang, but I noticed Shelby America lists a rear Widebody conversion that adds such a badass look with OEM appearance. Only problem is the $20K+ cost, does anyone know of a vendor or Chinese/drop shipper who offers...
SOLVED!!!
Turns out itās the alternator and the belt tensioner about to go out. No auto parts store or dealership in 250 miles has any of the parts though. Has my head spinning that NOBODY has these parts.
Since they wonāt arrive in time if ordered Iāll have to hope it makes it to SoCal and...
Gonna see if using one of the automotive stethoscopes works better for me to get closer. Seems to be coming from the bottom of the engine towards the back, around the oil filter area. Or atleast that seems to be the loudest spot so far Iāve found for the noise.
Besides that the noise seemed to...
Well, spent several more hours looking around and it appears to a bit louder in these areas (photos). At this point Iām gonna see if I can even access the parking brake adjustment with the exhaust in the way. I just canāt believe how loud but stealthy this issue is.
Update: Appears to not be...
Just spent the last several hours tearing apart the front end.
I checked everything over myself and had a second set of eyes and we both narrowed it to the front of the engine block. It runs silky smooth and shows zero mechanical issues when driving besides the noise that is only noticeable at...
As for the car looking like a GT500, that was the goal. Itās not just a bumper hood swap but an OEM spec Shelby wide body, hood, fenders, bumper, lights, supports and all the underlying parts had to be replaced to convert the front end and 2ā spacers to fill the wheel wells. The goal is to have...
Hey guys, thank you so much for all the replies, wasnāt expecting so many šš¼
I may have left out a few details, I was up almost 24hrs over tired and didnāt want to leave some rambling post ha ha š
Itās coming from the engine area, Iāve already popped the hood and looked, couldnāt tell where it...
Hey guys, have a 2018 Ecoboost, itās been making this weird rattling noise, started today, wasnāt too bad this morning, now after driving all day it sounds like a loud ass tractor. Dunno whatās going on, hopefully someone knows.
Iām about to move to LA for several months atleast, and I really...
