MGW announced a new shifter for the Dark Horse?

It's a multiple step process. First you need the PAAK box and to tell it to be a Ford key. The "ZB" is the generic programmable you'd want. The other is specific to Toyota. Their programmer tells it to imitate a modern Ford FOB and ensure it's on the vehicle's frequency. You then add it to the...

They've really worked out awesome for me and I havn't been left stranded a single time. After using Ford's native PAAK implementation in my Mach-E, I had to have it in all my cars going forward. KeyDIY was the only easy option when I was looking last year but there are others now like XHORSE. I...

4 is max on the current model Fords. It was 8 previously. I know this because I have KEYDIY PAAK boxes in both my Mustang and F150 that I bought the programmer for, learned how to use, and programmed the keys in my vehicles myself. Hit the limit at 2 attempts each (on top of the 2 originals) and...

Catalytic converters

Probably from the rain sensor gel pad.

Why wait? It's not the same motor and not the same supercharger. It's not a direct fit. If you must try, get a hold of the parts from the previous GT500.

They're not even trying

You must only drive in a straight line because you think rolling resistance is more destructive than lateral load. There is a reason all trims of Mustang have negative camber as factory specification. Agree to disagree.

Front fenders are replaceable with hand tools tho, so someone doing a front conversion will likely replace them too, no?

This is wrong and illogical. Bad toe causes constant surface scrub as the tires are continuously trying to push inward or outward depending on offset from 0. Camber simply reduces the contact patch in a straight line and has no effect on rolling resistance. Camber does cause UNEVEN wear IF the...

I doubt they touched your camber. Ford's camber plate range is out to -2.3*. The Ford service manual procedure calls for notching the top strut to spindle bolt hole which they'd look at and go "no thanks". Yes, weight needs to be off the wheels to adjust camber. After loosening the top 3 strut...

Thanks for sharing. Anecdotally, I have beat the piss out of my car on tracks for 2 seasons now without a STB, and have no signs of any problems.

Hmm they claim they measured half of a millimeter of flex without their brace, improved to a fifth of a millimeter with. I'm sorry, I don't believe a third of a millimeter of flex is going to improve suspension geometry characteristics any amount that couldn't be dismissed as margin of error.

200K miles on my 2012 Mustang GT all on Motorcraft 5W-20 blend. I put 5w-50 in the Dark Horse only because it's Whipple's spec but dang does it annoy me spending 4x as much per oil change.

Because it never happens to ICE vehicles, right?

Curious if this is more of an under the hood ornament than a performance part?

In your opinion, why will it bust things up?

I use one on my car. It's fine, just ensure the motor and oil is decently warm before you open it or you'll be there all day. As far as potentially sheering off... even with my motor lowered half an inch with a heavy blower on top it's still not the lowest part of my chassis, and it's already...
