What’s up with these Whipple SC installs... is it really worth the 10 grand... ‍

I will let you know in a few weeks when its installed lol. At nearly 14k in stuff I have bought with the kit and the stage 2 tuner kit, so definitely have a lot in it lol

Nice ride... did you paint the calipers red?
Also you managed to score it for 10k off OTD?

Yes I painted the calibers with G2 caliber paint and I got it OTD for the amount I said of course they tried to not honor their ad and I walked, went home looked at again and the ad said bring a copy of the ad.They called that night and I went back the next day with cash and the ad.It was also the last day of the month.

It was worth it to me and I got my kit from Beefcake last year during the black Friday sale for $7100.00 stage 2 kit. I also got oil pump gears and I did all the wrenching myself. Like it was said it was fast stock but every Mustang I've had I have modified

I don't have a Whipple but I would say that yes it worth the money for those that want more than stock.

I've had my 2019 GT premium for 8 1/2 months! I bought it with 9k miles and it has just a bit over 17k on it now. It is a 401A package with every option but magnaride. The sticker on it new was 50 and i got it for $35k with a discount where i work. I couldn't have asked for any better of a deal. This car was also pampered by the previous owner and taken care of 100%.

I absolutely love driving it! I find a reason to go out every single time. It's also my daily driver - even though my commute to work is less than 5 miles. But i'll drive it 100 miles on the weekend for no reason - just because. I have no desire to mod it, and the only thing i've done is changed the air filter and installed a steeda H pipe resonator delete. Other than that, it's perfect right out of the box!

The only issue i've had is a failed clockspring that was covered under warranty. Aside from that - i've had a rattle/buzz here and there - but i've chased them down (and that's being picky.) It is such a pleasure to drive. The perfect definition of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde (so pleasant quiet and smooth / or an absolute snarling beast of an animal.) I love it so much!

... Interestingly it has the GT stabilizer bar over the engine that looks like a factory install, but I don’t have a PP package. I LOVE IT.

Nice ‘vert!
IIRC, cars with the 20” wheel package like yours get some of the PP chassis braces. The strut tower brace sounds correct.

Ordered and received May 2019. Just under 10k daily driven but TDY since March 2020. Looking like I wont be home till December thanks to Covid BS. Miss the hell out of my car!!! Not gonna drive it here to Colorado due to hail storms and "living" in a hotel. Planning on 4.09's, tune, intake, and exhaust when I get home. Giving it a few more years and may go twin turbo. Funny though that I plan for all these mods and then when I get in that drivers seat, I forget all about changing anything. And because pics are a thing...

I'm only had mine for a few months, But it is a riot. I still smile every time I drive it. Its my Daily. I just don't drive everyday anymore.

2018 PP1 with MT-82... it has to be on the earlier side of 2018's produced..... I bought it used with 7k miles on it.... tomorrow I will hit 12k as I approach 1 year of ownership. Technically this car has been on the road for 2 1/2 years and she's been solid. Yes, it has the annoying 2k rattle... SLIGHT BBQ tick, but it's been a very solid car so far. There's nothing else that soothes my sole quite like this car. Original MSRP was $42k..... I got it for $30,500.... that's a ton of car for the money. No regrets.

Same here. I have the funds to do a lot to my 2018 GT Premium, but every time I take it for a spin and get out of the car I think, dang, this thing is awesome.

Besides, we have little open road where I live to really take advantage of the 460 ponies.

Bought mine March 2019, I have just around 1K on it. It was bought purely as a weekend cruiser. Only mods to this point are window tint, drop in dry filter, Ford Motorsport Bullit shifter ball, and Borla Switchfire resonator delete pipe (is my favorite mod by-far).
Right now, I'm gonna stay NA, FI is tempting, but I'm leaning towards 4:09's, half shafts, shifter, and some STEDA suspension mods. But that's all gonna wait for a while until I retire in a few years. That will be one of my hobbies to putz with, well, that and lying on the beaches here.

Mine is a Spring 2019 delivery, about 4000 miles on it. Maybe a rattle and tick, don't care, it runs great! Only mod is trimming of the engine cover and a valve on the sound symposer.

4-1/2 years of enjoying my 2015 GT Premium w/50th APP, bought in March 2016! Kind mods: strut brace, Ford Performance Power Pack II, Steeda clutch return spring, and (of course), sound tube delete. Taken it to Summit Point for HPDE twice, first time before PPII and second time after PPII (resulting in a non-damaging "off-track excursion" thanks to the additional low/mid torque!) Swapped to the Perf Pack wheels after melting much rubber off the original wheels. Was missing it something fierce since we're away from home thanks to COVID, so I just retrieved last weekend! Happy driver again! Hoping to step up to the Mach I when they are available. (Updated pic!)

May not be the right forum for this post, but I enjoyed reading the entire thread. I bought my 2018 Ruby Red Black Accent pkg 401a brand new in 8/18, just turned over 15k miles. Awesome car- it has been my COVID shut in stress relief. Driving it and washing it are my favorite things to do after work
