Speaking of which, how much do you think someone would be willing to pay for his old spoiler? Isn't that the same one that appears on the GT?

I can answer this one! hehe It's less "what will it take to lose control" and more like "why does it take so much effort to lose control". These things are unreal, for a Mustang. I have taken hairpins (35mph max) at 55mph and 55mph corners at 110mph. No sliding, no understeer. It's like a...

I did mine already. Buy 30# braided fishing line before you get started. You're going to need it.

You did and I finally took it and went in swinging. 🍻 It was awful doing it on ramps. If it was on a lift, I'd probably complain less. 😅

Well... Holy crapples. I got the POS installed. I decided to stop worrying about breaking things and manhandle the MF into place. I mean it was REALLY wild how hard I had to push (with a trim tool prying DOWN on the upper splitter) to get it to pop into place. Whew! 😡 But when I heard...

I typically see (locally) manuals putting down 700rwhp-730rwhp. But... to be fair, that's on a canned Whipple tune with 93 octane and I'm not sure if they threw some Boostane in there or not. You know how people hide stuff. I know I've walked stock (or near-stock) GT500's with no issue and I'm...

I got that reference. :sunglasses:

OH! That's an auto, that's why. Makes sense. Nevermind. I'm wrong, you're right. I never think about automatics when I get into these discussions.

Edmunds? I think you're right. Oh, rant time! I'll tell you right now Edmunds (and most all web/mag reviewers like C&R, R&T, or U-turn or whatever they're called) seem to be terrible drag racers. I typically avoid their reviews. I don't talk a lot of crap about people but I consistently see...

Okay, so that's the info I was looking for. Thank you! The issue I'm having is getting the lower splitter lip into the upper splitter compartment. My lower splitter fits in there on the sides no problem. I hear a little click when the screw tabs on the lower splitter align with the holes in the...

That was a minor annoyance. The fact that I never thought a weekend toy could be that inconvenient to operate. Strict (STRICT!) rules from Chevy about maintenance or else you get the warranty voided, another flatscreen dashboard that would go out while driving (sure just reboot) once in a while...

Something else is wrong with that setup. It's about 100rwhp off.

I'm getting about 21 on the Interstate, 16 mixed, and... uh... like 6-8 in town because I'm a maniac.

The wing should. Provided you have the fancy stock wing. The holes are the same. As for the splitter, well, I have a thread open where where I'm asking for help. I have the OEM HP splitter and it's not fitting flush. Going to give it a day to cook on here and if I don't get an answer it's dremel...

What kind of horsepower does it make? What kind of tires are you running? What is the average temperature where you're at when it breaks loose? Do you have any suspension mods on the car?

Ah! I thought you were suggesting a cat delete. Whoops! :)

For comparison, I believe I picked mine up (DH Premium, Recaro, MANual trans) for about $69k before fees. I wanted the HP but no one would order one for me. They all wanted me to buy something off the lot instead. Had to drive several hours away to snag this one. Whipple'd immediately. Been...

I'm actually in the middle of retrofitting mine with everything from the HP that I can.

Maybe that's part of it? I didn't care for the Vette being an auto. It did all the same auto stuff that all modern automatics tend to do... don't downshift far enough on WOT, hesitate when I manually hit the paddles, etc. I do prefer my stick. Maybe I would've kept it if it was a stick.

That's what I was going to do, too. I was going to get a hood that can clear a strut tower brace now that it's supercharged. It's my understanding I'll probably have to have one modded/fabbed as the stock one can make contact with the blower lid under sudden load due to how low it sits. I also...
