This is my Mustang GT so far.

I'm looking at springs and sway bars, what's the Ford Performance Track Handling Pack like ?

As the FPPP3 is still delayed, it's even out of stock in the US on AM - Ford Performance Power Pack 3, would it be easier for me to just buy a Ford Performance GT350 5.2L Voodoo Intake Manifold and Ford Performance 87MM GT350 Throttle Body, use my existing Roush air intake and then get a Lund tune ?

I'll also be looking at changing the headers, possibly ceramic coated Kooks at some point.

The FRPP handling kit at $1000 is good value as it includes dampers, springs, sway bars and toe knuckle bushes. Vastly improves the car and should of being PP setup from stock as rides better too and no more rear float.

The PP3 pack will probably never come to the UK and even if it does the Ford calibration will make around 475HP and they also want like $2000 for it.

You be better of contacting Autonation White Bear Lake Ford and Levittown Ford for quotes on:
- Ford Handling track pack - $975
- GT 350 IM - $875
- GT 350 TB - $145
- GT 350 CAI with duct - $200
- FRPP separator for both left and right banks. $145 each

That gives you a GT 350 stock looking setup and the GT 350 CAI is a touch bigger and has less vacuum lines so neater. Then sell your Roush for ÂŁ200-300 as they are popular due to good build quality.

See what Ford quote you, I've put target prices next to each and just pray for cheap shipping! Also remember to 20-30% on top in taxes when lands in U.K.

If I was doing it again I'd not bother with track handling pack as it's super heavy and Ford will want to charge a pretty penny to ship it so by the time it's landed your ÂŁ1500 out of pocket, it's a good setup but there is now better available locally in the uk.

As such for ÂŁ1500 I'd get:
- Eibach street coilovers or KW V1 - ÂŁ1000
- Eibach swaybars - ÂŁ500

That will handle better and have better damping with full height adjustability. If I can't get Magneride on an MY18 I shall go KW route.

Power Pack 3 with Lund tune though is awesome your talking an easy 500HP on the setup I listed. :)

As I said in my original reply, if I was doing my car from scratch again, the FRPP track pack would not be in my car. Do not get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with it, the kit is fantastic and if you can get a good deal on shipping it is incredible value and the handling improvement was dramatic.

However the reason I'd not go that way again is simply because KW V1 is a superior damper/spring setup which is also perfectly matched and calibrated for each other and that kit is tested extensively in one of the harshes environments right here in Europe (Nurburgring), it does not get much better than that. If you shop around you can find KW V1 ofr 1k, that will give you a perfectly matched spring and damper setup which will not only ride better than any custom damper and spring setup but also handle better. Plus you have the advantage of it is height adjustable and being a matched setup there will be zero noise from it.

On swaybar side of things, they all achieve the same goals, reducing roll, without looking at them in detail, your main priority with swaybars should be trying to find hollow ones, these tend to be even thicker as a hollow swaybar needs to be thicker than a solid bar to achieve the same result. The advantage of hollow bar is of course drastic weight savings. As to which ones are hollow and which are not I am not sure, you'd have to enquire with the vendors such as Steeda, BMR, Afe, Eibach, FRPP.

So if I was doing it again:
- KW V1 or V3
- Hollow swaybars or just buy Eibach for ease of availability in UK, check Steeda too
- FRPP toe knuckle bearing (about $100 but offers good improvement)


Then of course there is all the other stuff, particular rear-end like diff mounts, BMR cradle lock out CB005, vertical links etc, RLCA bearings, you can go crazy. :D
