Yeah, but you're basically then disabling the active exhaust.

Thought so

Thought so

Maybe a way to wire up a switch under the dash to enable/disable it.

Anyone have RokBlox mud flaps on their car? I do. I seem to be getting some debris stuck between the fender and the mud flap. Anyone else have this going on?

What did you do to stop it?

I’m experiencing the same issue. I’ve used small strip of 3M protection tape between the mud flap and the wheel well to keep it from damaging the paint

Do you happen to know what size bolt/screw to use for the splitter? I need to replace a few rivets and I think a couple of screws came out as well (or were never put in in the first place).

Thanks

I don't know the size, but I know the part number from Ford:
Screw and Spring Washer Asy, W715060-S450B, qty 12 ($2.50/ea)

I would just get them from the dealership since they're always in stock. You might save a little by ordering from Tasca, Levittown, etc., but shipping would more than even it up. If I recall, they thread into a sheet metal nut so you might be able to find something at Lowes, HD, etc. as well if you can pull one screw and test fit / compare.

Is that $2.50 per screw or $2.50 for a pack of 12?

Each.

The OEM plastic rivets are $6/each...

The plastic rivets are available online for much less. I posted the dimensions someplace in these forums.

Thank you both. I picked up the plastic rivets at HF and ordered a pack of screws online. Planning to do this project Friday, bleed brakes and possibly throw in my track pads to be prepared for the track on the 21st.

The HF rivets seemed to work better than what I got from Ford but keep an eye on them. I had one work out because it didn’t crush / expand properly. They’re cheap enough that it doesn’t really matter, but it’s annoying. The OEM rivets can be sourced from Auveco for a reasonable price as well.

Folks, does anyone know how many pp2s were made for each year of production?

There is no set numbers and unless Ford Performance kept track never really know.
Rumor was about 1500 for the 1st year, mostly due to inventory shortages. Not sure if that number was even hit. I have the feeling that the PPL2, 50th Anniversary, and Yellow Jacket will end up the 3 most rare S550 packages.

It would be great if we ever get the numbers. Just to see how "special" we are lol

Not that it will matter much. We'll never get to sit with the cool kids (Shelby's, Boss', Mach 1's...) .

Little did I know when I ranted about how dumb it is you cant get a PPL2 Bullitt little did I realize that its because they would have a hard time justifying the Mach1 if it was just that same car, but with coolers.

You can however buy the Magenride handling kit upgrade that includes a software update for the Magneride. Putting you on par or better than PP2. Then you just need to upgrade your wheels and tires.
