2015 Mustang GT
Hello fellas, Just a quick introduction. Just picked up a 2015 GT with PP in Competition Orange. I bought it at Carmax Irvine, just in case one y'all traded it in. So far, I can see it already has the roush axleback, but has the stock resonator. It also has tint on the back 3 windows. I have't had time to see what other kinds of cool goodies are already done for me. I think it might have an aftermarket shifter because the stick is very firm, and pretty notchy. I missed 4/5 shift a few times, I have to consciously push (somewhat hard) it over to the 5/6 gate. I've read the MT82 has shifter issues, so I'm not sure if this is the "problem" or if this was the "correction". Took me 5 minutes to figure out how to get it in reverse the first time. It's been a really long time since I had a stick with a reverse lockout. I'm used to reverse being down and to the right.

I'm your typical mid 40's guy looking for something obnoxious and fun. I've had a lot of cars that are mod friendly. Not a complete list:

  • Two Neon SRT-4's, one had a stage 2 turbo package, the other a stage 3
  • A total of 4 Camaro's, one of which had a 4:11 rear and a Cam (1982, 1988, 1994, and another 1994)
  • I had a 1989 Mustang LX 5.0
  • 2010 BMW 135i with a cobb tune
  • 2003 Nissan 350z
  • Lexus IS350 (I know, I know it's a couch with wheels, but the V6 was pretty cool)
  • 1986 Pontiac Fiero GT (I loved that car, wish I hadn't sold it)
  • Three Dodge Dakota's, all had V8's
  • 1990 Ford ranger than I bought for $100 no joke. Great Truck.
  • 1994 Chevy S10. I got it for free, but it was such a POS.
I have family that worked for GM, Ford and Dodge. I'm an equal opportunity modder!

Other than an X-pipe, I don't plan on spending too much money modding right now, I'd rather save up for a supercharger than piss away a hundred here and a hundred there for minimal gains. Haven't decided if I'll go for an edelbrock or a whipple. Probably the Edelbrock because it looks like it will fit under the strut bar. I head Edelbrock now has the 2650 eaton's, so by the time I want to buy one, they will probably have been out for a while.

The car has a base stereo. I do plan on changing it to the Sync 2 using the retrofit from 4D. I also plan on adding better speakers and a small Alpine 45x4 amp to power it all. I don't listen to bass heavy music (Christian hard rock) and I've lived without a sub for quite a while now, so I don't see it happening.

I probably won't post up for a while, I need to absorb some of the information from y'all first, nobody likes a cocky new guy blabbing about stuff he doesn't know about. Nice to meet y'all.
