that title feels like the author is trying to get diehard Ford people to attack others for what they drive, like the diehard Tesla people are infamous for
cams are not worth it unless you are looking to get every single bit of power you possibly can and are willing to throw everything else, including your money, out the window. Whipple stage 2 already brings you to 875hp on 91 or 93. e85 and a smaller pulley will make that even more once you can...
i know this thread is old, but if there is other lights on like the BRAKE light, traction control, and all that, this is likely an ABS module issue. there is an SSM out for this where the solution is to re-program the ABS module, and it will be covered by the 3yr/36k mile bumper to bumper...
i've done some autocross events, and i have some fun with it. definitely not torturing it to the point where the cats melt, though. its my daily driver, but i think i drive like most other Mustang drivers do
we replaced the downstream O2 monitor and no dice, still reading funny. tech mentioned that there was a powder on the sensor when he took it out. next step is to replace the cat. so glad this is all under warranty because this is how its shaping up so far
if when the tech bore scopes the cat...
those marker lights are really how Ford should've done it from factory. love the look of them, it doesnt look like some cheap $5 aliexpress specials like the factory ones with the only 3 SMD chips
the Ford Performance one comes as a set of both, and has a very OEM look to it. otherwise, i think most all oil catch cans work about as well as the others
i have the brembos too, and 19" diam with 11" width and +24mm offset works perfect. plenty of caliper clearance and you can run up to 325/30R19, but the clearance to the strut will be close, but wont hit. i do recommend running at most 315 width, though, as 325 will cause some minor rubbing at...
this damage will 100% fall onto the driver for causing it. the dealer has no reason not to fix this, as none of it is going to come out of their pocket, unless for some reason the person checking in those vehicles told the driver not to code it. i expect there to be at least an 03-04-6 (front...
this transmission sucks. 1st and 2nd are hard to find compared to the other gears, and i stalled it twice when at a light and i couldnt find them so i tried and failed to launch from 3rd. i eventually gave up and just sat at a light in 1st with the clutch pressed in so it wasnt so bad... until i...
Ford faces recall issues all the time. just look at the millions of Explorers affected by the A-pillar trim flying off. im sure my situation is an isolated case, but im definitely going to be asking to see an inside image of the cat if it does need replacement
even if it was a cat, there's 7 in National which can be overnighted, and its under the 8yr/80k mile emissions warranty, so the $2300 for the cat/manifold assembly, $350 core charge, and shipping are on Ford's dime
looks like the downstream bank 2 O2 sensor is jumping between 0.8v, 0.3v, 0.6v, and is overall erratic, while the downstream bank 1 O2 sensor is stable
19,000 mile update, my rear fitment has encountered a problem. my rear tire has gone in the fender well so much that it has flared it out slightly and caused minor paint cracking along the edge. with that being said, i no longer recommend anyone run a 19X12 with 355 width tires. 345 width will...
on my way in to work this morning, i got a check engine light. P0430. tech i gave it to hasnt officially looked at it yet, but is saying it will probably need a new bank 2 cat, which is the driver one that has the manifold attached. thankfully, if i need to leave it for a day or two, i got an...
