It doesn't even have to rev particularly high so long as its a fun N/A powerband. I've driven plenty of fun N/A cars that only rev to around 6800 rpm. Low end torque is stupid fun when its a linear powerband. They will literally never do it though.

I'm certain it can be done, I'm just saying I don't know what it exactly is. The simple answer: More surface area, hahah.

I know Misha is looking into adding forced induction. I would consider holding off for a minute and waiting for him to make some runs with that thing in the spring/summer of '26. See how his car takes to it. Most people seem to say the same thing, its hard to manage heat with the whippled...

hahahah, I'm done, I promise

Just gonna repeat it a final time, and this video sort of proves a point. On dry pavement, in 40 degree weather, you wont have a Porsche magically slide into a curb leaving a parking lot unless you're doing something really stupid. I could care less what the tires are short of racing slicks...

If you floor it, yes, it will break traction at 10 miles an hour, but it will not just slide into a curb without deliberate input. There's still friction to the pavement, it wont just slip slide at that speed. I can push any rwd car sideways in a parking lot with any normal tires at any...

So you're saying that turning out of a driveway at 10 mph made a car slide into a curb without any ice on completely dry pavement? Okay

He said "The sales manager watched him pull out, turn out of the driveway and then slide sideways into a curb across the street." If he was pulling out of a driveway, he could not have been going more than 10 or 15 miles an hour. If you're exceeding lateral grip at this speed, its either ice...

Then he floored it and went sliding. Again, the tires wont just magically slide into a curb.

Either there was ice on the road, or he floored it and went into the curb. The tires wont just magically start sliding. I've driven plenty of summer tires in sub zero temperatures.

I want those wheels for my winter setup

So long as you're not doing standing burnouts, you should be good, hahah. The only condition I find them to be pretty mediocre in is deep slush. But if its just snow, then they eat it up no problem.

Just for perspective, My Honda is on its fourth season with the X-ice, done a solid 20,000 miles on them. Never been stuck, and they've regularly seen a foot+ of snow across Maine and NY. Mustang likely won't get quite the same amount of tread life out of them, though I did take them on a road...

If you care about resale value, get the 3.73 stick shift.

Three best winters are Blizzaks, Michelin X-ice, and Continental Viking contact 8's (in my experience) Dont buy cheap snow tires, dont use traction control under 30 mph in the snow, and you'll have no issues. Also, dont only put them in the rear. Terrible idea. Put them all around.

In my experience, Steeda has been fine to work with. Your exhaust clamp situation seems like a skill issue. The type of dude to hit a grade 2 bolt with an impact and blame the hardware

Just googled, it was Vorshlag. https://vorshlag-store.com/

If you have an S650 without the performance pack, then you've got a trac-loc. I should probably elaborate that these were modified S197's that were on very very wide wheels doing a lot of hard cornering. There is far more strain on a diff when its dealing with such wide and sticky tires...

I've heard that the guys who were seriously racing the Trac-loc diffs had to replace the clutch packs pretty much every weekend before switching to the Torsen. Torsens seem to make the most sense for hard driving

2010 or 2015 was probably peak car. The 90's were great for pure involvement, but the early 2010's had so many incredible cars that its hard to top. E60 V10 M5's, S197s, Civic Type R's, C6 vettes, Camaros, all fantastic cars. We truly never will go back to such a time, and thats a shame.
