They’re pretty great! That is my go to shop for stuff I either can’t do or don’t have the tools to do the job for. Haven’t had any issues and I’m very picky on who I let work on my car.

Hey everyone! Thought I’d post a review that could help people going forward for a more street friendly setup on their S650 along with some pictures of how the car currently sits. First off I have a base 300A 2024 GT. Only options are the 10speed, and NPP.

Suspension Set Up:
-Ford Performance Street Lowering Springs
-Ford Performance Strut Tower Brace
-Ford Performance Track Sway Bars
-Ford Performance Camber Plates
-Ford Performance Rear Toe Link Kit
-Steeda Pro Action Non Adjustable Shocks and Struts
-Steeda IRS Subframe Alignment Kit
-Steeda IRS Subframe Bushing Support Kit

Wheels:
SVE SP2 19x10, 19x11

Tires:
Continental Extreme Contact Sport 02’s in 285/35/19, and 305/35/19.

After having this completed (to me) set up for maybe a month already I can say from stock, to just springs, to what I have now is wow! The car has a less bouncy/floaty feel. It feels way more planted than before. The ride is a bit more harsher but it’s not bad whether you drive the car as a daily or weekend driver. Now when it comes to driving spiritedly and on the twists and turns the car handles amazing, there’s hardly any body roll and I feel like I can actually keep my speed on turns without feeling like I’m about to lose control. The FP sway bars are adjustable and they only have 2 settings/holes which is stiff and soft. I have mine on soft for both and even then it still feels great when pushing the car. Haven’t tried it on the stiffest setting or messed around with different set ups to see how it changes the way the car feels and handles but so far I am loving this set up. It isn’t too much but just enough to where if I want to take it every once in a while to the track I am sure the car will do well. I figured I’d post this for those who would rather have a street friendly set up without doing too much or get inspiration from it. I made this somewhat based off what Ford offered for a street handling kit on the S550 but I did add a few things to it. Any questions ask away!

Your car looks great! What front splitter are you using or have installed?

I personally haven't used them but have heard positive things from other Mustang owners.

Two other good options in DFW are DSG Performance and Precision Alignment and Auto . Precision can do the alignment after installing suspension parts, and he (Chris) knows what he's doing.

I bought it off Amazon man. It’s the same one from W2Body Kits but cheaper, and easier to return or replace if you have issues. I bought both to see the difference and returned the W2 one when I saw it was the same cheap Chinese stuff. Does the job until there’s a better front splitter that isn’t carbon fiber and isn’t too big or aggressive

Yes sir! I took my car to Precision for my alignment. Chris is the guy! I didn’t have a great experience with DSG recently but they’re another trusted shop for sure. Might give them a chance again in the future but for now stang is done.
