@Sinthor 5.56 ..... great question. I too did not want a "tacky" look that detracted from the appearance. I did get some stickers from Roush but IMO they were more for the rear window and that doesn't appeal to me. When I asked Roush they told me there were a lot of aftermarket "badges" etc...
@CT22 ..... was out with a friend who has a DH earlier this summer later at night. Some $hitty little rice rocket with 4 baby teens were in it. He ran it hard off 6 stop lights in a row. On the 7th pull the $hitty little rice rocket blew up, shooting parts and oil all over the road. Most of the...
@Stanzi ..... beautiful Mustang. The red Brembos look great with the body color. Why didn't you just pull a "gone in 60 seconds" - they wouldn't be able to catch you! :cool:
@Joe_Stang .... agree 100% and almost certainly better airflow. I think several manufacturers are/will offer aftermarket air intake tubing too and that's next on my list.
@Sconn1971 .... They might but these were the only ones I could get that were "dry" so if blue they would likely be oiled - which I am sure you and the rest of the forum would treat properly because of the knowledge base here. I have read that Corsa will soon have their version of clear air box...
Will these make my GT faster, no. Will they generate more HP, no. Are they necessary, no. Did I get permission from the boss (aka the wife, hell yes) - actually she encouraged me. Yeah, I know, I chose wisely. Thought about the purchase for a while. Discussed the item with Roush Performance. Dry...
@Stanzi ..... I'm still looking for that damn post. You might consider starting a new thread with a title that would be seen by the original poster of the reply? Something like "My Mustang Held Hostage By Recall At Dealer" and see if that jogs someone's memory. In the meantime I'll keep looking...
@Stanzi ..... I'll see if I can find it. The dealer had to declare something that released the car that seemed just common sense. The thread was a guy waiting to get his Mustang that had a TSB or recall issued but there was no immediate remedy. I think he his Mustang within a day. I wonder if...
@roket .... the "trick" (I probably should have called it a work around) is perfectly legal and for many recalls (think Takata airbags that took several years to arrive) and a BCM that would likely not show the effects of corrosion for years - leaving vehicles in dealership lots would be...
S197s could have water intrusion through the firewall into ECMs if the owners were dumba$$es and allowed their engine firewall drains (2) to get full of dirt. Another water issue (not owners fault but common to many convertibles) is water getting into rear quarter panel compartments. A fix for...
It's not easy to line-up plastic and metal panels and have them retain that position. Several Mustang buddies have had to loosen and re-align panels from S197 to S650. Have seen the same on many other vehicles. That said my 2024 GT Premium Convertible lined-up really well. As good as any...
@Frogdog1 and @AZ_Ryan ..... agreed. Did the same - worked hard from 11 years old on. Paid cash for everything unless I got a 0% finance opportunity. Made choices, set priorities. Friends pi$$ed their money away and now complain "it isn't fair". Paid all my university, books to courses to...
One thing I do LOVE about EVs - it's what I call musical cars.....watching who gets caught holding the EV as it approaches three years of age - the mid-point of most EV's battery life. After three years no one in their right mind will buy a used one. Now that IS fun to watch. Well, that and...
According to the President of Toyota there is six times the environmental damage to build an EV compared to an ICE. In Europe a friend who regrets buying his EV has to unplug it (city ordinance) during periods of power shortages. I could go on and on. EVs - garbage - whose construction destroys...
