Can confirm quiet mode is still quiet. Took mine on a 500 mile road trip, and on quiet mode on the interstate I didn't even notice it.

I concur with what everyone else has said here. I have a GT with active valve exhaust and H-pipe. Cold start, especially from inside a garage, is loud, but otherwise it's only slightly louder in all the other situations. When I remote start it in parking lots as I walk up to it, it sounds...

That's what I did and it worked great. Eventually replaced the grille with an MP concepts grille to remove the pony badge altogether, but that required taking the bumper off which is much easier with a lift so I just paid a body shop to do it.

I have a playlist specifically for this:

Not doing us any favors!

Interesting, thanks for sharing this! As an engineer, I can't refute an A/B test with sensors. The standard MMR crossover kit might truly be more of an "air-bleed" tool rather than a thermal management tool. The TMO data reinforces that the best way to keep the heads cool is to keep the entire...

People call oil pump gears snake oil too, and that's fine. If you don't want it, just don't buy it. I know people who don't think home insurance is worth it either. It's just my opinion that if you have the engine apart anyway it's a cheap and easy to install mod while you're already in there...

Anyone can correct me if im wrong but my understanding is that while the Gen 4 got dual throttle bodies and internal strengthening, the coolant flow path through the heads remains largely the same as the Gen 1-3. The coolant enters the front of the block and heads, but it has no "exit" at the...

You're spot on about rotating mass in a vacuum, but for a Whipple build, the priority shifts entirely to traction. An 8.5" wheel maxes out around a 255mm tire, which just can't put down 800hp,.you'd be spinning through 3rd gear. Regarding fitment, I could be wrong, but I think 20s actually...

Been hoping for a decent vented aluminum hood to come on to the market. You aware of any? Only ones I've found have been carbon fiber. And I hear you on the radiator, although I plan on mine being a daily driver 99% of the time, and on average only doing 1 or 2 track days per year. A bigger...

I second this, 100%. This is exactly why not as a mustang expert but as a mechanical engineer I plan on beefing up as much of mine as possible BEFORE the boost. For some examples, on drivetrain/transmission I plan to get the G-Force Outlaw Half Shafts which will essentially replace a "fuse"...

Putting 800+ horsepower through a 255mm contact patch is essentially like trying to run a marathon in dress shoes. A 255mm tire on an 8.5-inch wheel will likely struggle to find traction, even with a premium compound. Most supercharged builds move to at least a 10-inch or 11-inch rear wheel to...

My favorites for my GT vert are: 1) the Steeda H-pipe which totally "woke up" the exhaust without making it too loud, and 2) the Steeda "chassis suite" of products that completely transformed the suspension feel and steering. Similar to the "dtop the hop" kits for non-verts. This was the big...

Anything priced above a GT or DH + a whipple makes no sense. They are all marketed as track oriented, and there are MUCH better track oriented options out there in the $100K range than a front-engine, RWD, 4,000 lb car no matter how many parts from the bin are added.

Then why not just get a GT with a whipple for half the price?

Correct me if I'm wrong again, but doesn't the predator come with forged pistons, forged connecting rods, and a forged-steel cross-plane crank, all engineered to handle massive cylinder pressures? Seems the predator with its additional headroom could operate at 760–800 hp all day long. I...

My mistake then. Thank you for correcting me. Out of curiosity, if it has the 5.2, how is the supercharger only bringing it up to 8XX total horsepower?

[ I’m aware of the GT500’s cooling. It was a $100k+ engineering feat with a front-end that was 50% opening. But comparing a factory-integrated SVT cooling package to a DHSC (which by my understanding is basically a dealer-installed blower on a standard cooling stack, but correct me if I'm...

The DH SC is still a front-engine pony car carrying significant weight. A 911 GT3 RS has 200 fewer horses but beats higher-powered cars at the Nurburgring because its power-to-weight ratio and active aero allow it to carry 20-30 km/h more speed through corners. 750+ hp generates immense heat...

LOL how many variants are there now of coyotes with whipples that cost six figures? No thanks, I'll do it on my own for half the price.
