Update:
First round of mods installed. Now just waiting on tuning from DRP Motorsports. So far Ray has been awesome and responsive with my requests.
Today I’ll be installing champagne colored Apex ML-10RT 19” wheels and Nitto NT05 tires.
Waiting on a quote to install OPG’s so I can sleep...
This video sound does not do this exhaust setup the justice it deserves. You could not have a conversation behind the vehicle until the exhaust quieted down. The revs literally tickled my eardrums. It’s loud. With the valves closed it’s more tame and sounds similar to the stock valves open...
I actually cross-shopped the new M2 vs the Mustang GT RTR Spec 2. I had an OG M2 with a manual and I loved that car but it was very expensive to modify, even worse than the Corvettes I’ve owned. In the end I went with a 2024 Mustang RTR Spec 2 and added a dealer installed Roush Launch Edition...
I ordered the LIquivinyl posted above. It’s still in pre-fab. I’ll post up pics when I get it installed. Follow my 2024 Mustang RTR Spec 2 post for updates. My car is in the shop now getting more fuel, more boost, more everything. Haha.
I have a 2024 Mustang GT with Roush Launch Edition (phase 2) supercharger. I’m looking to turn up the boost and purchased a bunch of parts to support the build. I purchased Injector Dynamics 1050 XDS injectors from Lethal Performance and now my installer is telling me they are too tall. They...
I have a 24 Spec 2. It has some paint missing where the trunk edge meets the duckbill spoiler. The car sat at the dealer for over a year and doesn’t have any rust like that. It also had 70 miles on it when I bought it.
As is typically the case, the crowd has gotten off topic. You’re adding a lot of good parts so far. In order of importance I would add:
1- catch cans
1.1-headers with no cats or at the very most green cats. If you can’t go catless I would not be doing track days or long highway pulls back to...
If it’s a good deal buy them and try to make some money on them. Putting them on your Mustang isn’t going to happen, though. Using spacers to push the wheel out away from the suspension is going to cause it to push outside the fender. Even a wide body kit wouldn’t be enough.
I’m curious how much this would cost to replicate? Is it cheaper than using boost? Is it better than boost when it comes to combatting heat? Would a twin turbo or Whipple/Vortech/Roush supercharger yield the same results with less money spent?
I have UPR catch cans on each side. After 2300 miles this photo shows the amount of oil collected on my 24 Mustang GT with Roush phase 2 supercharger. I measured it at nearly 1.5 oz.
This is from the “dirty side” only.
My car has 2300 miles on it.
Next round of modifications have been ordered and the list of modifications beyond the RTR Spec 2 package and Roush Phase 2 blower will be:
78 mm SC Pulley
Reische 170* thermostat
KPM Fuel System 1500 hp
Injector Dynamics ID-1050-XDS
Soler Performance 90 mm TB’s
Kooks LTH catless
AWE...
If you’re just going to change the axle back portion I think the S type wouldn’t do much. I’m going to run catless LTH’s and an X pipe and hope that the S type muffler can tame the rasp.
I carry a can of color-matched spray paint from Ford. Every time I get out of the vehicle I hit them with a light coat of paint. They look amazing. It’s a little annoying having to do it every single time I drive the vehicle but it’s so worth it not having to look at rusty rotors.
