For clamps 1 and 2, pretty confident you should stick w the OEM ones. I ran into this when I installed my catback. The previous owner had done an H-pipe and welded it in on those clamps, so I had to sawzall em off. This was a surprise on install day so I bought some clamps from auto stores...
Ha I just posted a thread on this last week. The best answer I got was to look closely to see the difference between where the dipstick was dipped in oil vs oil streaks from being dragged along the dip tube. Itās a pain but yeah you can tell. Every time I pull mine out thereās oil streaks way...
Not to worry, I used the proper 5w30. Pennzoil ultra platinum thanks to the recommendations of the forum. The cross hatch was definitely wet, but was tough to get a proper reading on level (how high on the cross hatch). Iāll try again and hope I can get a better reading
To those with strut tower braces, do yall have trouble reading the dipstick? I have a PP1 so I have a strut tower brace which gets in the way of pulling the dipstick out straight upward. I have to pull it out at a weird angle and the dipstick makes contact with the sides of the dip tube the...
It's completely legal. The only thing that would cause any trouble legally is when you mess with the cats. Anything downstream of the cats is fair play.
When I bought my car, the previous owner had done a resonator delete and replaced it with an H-pipe (not sure of the brand). It sounded great...
I have this bracket, works great and don't have to screw into anything. Just adhesive and imo looks better in the factory position between the upper and lower grille vs the sto n sho sitting very low

Installed Steeda Trident wheels wrapped in Firestone Firehawk Indy 500s over the weekend! Wheels are 19x10 square, 285/35/19 tires. Thanks to Steeda for the Labor Day sale. Love how these look, it looks so much better and more aggressive with the wheels coming all the way flush to the fender...
Bilstein B6 is a popular choice as well. That's what I plan on going with in the future when I upgrade suspension. Steeda offers the B6s in an assembled kit with choices of some of their springs.
And to answer your other question, most on here will say you need camber plates. I can't speak from...
This thread is specific to those with the 401A digital gauge cluster.
I replaced the my battery last weekend. After changing the battery, I lost one of the screens in the "Show Gauges" function. Specifically, the one where you can select which gauges to be shown and it shows the 3 chosen gauges...
That's probably the best strategy. Get things like intake, exhaust, whatever mods first so the car is ready to get the most out a tune and then tune that sucker up
Correct, you don't need a tune. See description here: https://www.roushperformance.com/collections/featured-cold-air-intake/products/2018-mustang-v8-cold-air-kit?_pos=1&_fid=48a98a47f&_ss=c
Closed. Open box is open to the heat of the entire engine bay, not very effective.
I have the Roush closed box CAI (without a tune) and it's great. The intake temps are usually only a couple degrees over ambient, it's really impressive. Even when the car is fully up to operating temp, on a nice...
Apparently you still won't pass emissions even with catted headers. Kooks doesn't guarantee that you'll pass. Even with the GREEN catted headers ($$$) people have even still had issues passing emissions. I live in MA and WISH this wasn't the case, it's literally the only thing preventing me from...
