Here's what the manual says about "Drift brake": Note:When the feature is on, the brake handle applies braking to the rear wheels only and locks up the rear wheels. When the feature is off, the brake handle works like the foot brake and applies braking to all four wheels. I haven't tried it...

Yeah, no linearity to it. There's also no mention of emergency brake in the manual, just parking brake. At least dragging the rears in an emergency will help you come to a stop faster than free spinning wheels.

I started going to drag strips and road courses. After actually going fast, doing it on the streets seems silly and pointless.

I had a quarter of the front clip done since it's the most likely surface to be pitted and chipped from rocks. Gives me peace of mind. I plan to keep this car a long time.

Do you ever get wheelhop when driving the rear tires hard? If not, you've either not really pushed it or you have a magical unicorn Mustang. Wheelhop is proven to have detrimental effect on the rear end components of these cars. Better to fix the problem before than to amplify the problem by...

I daily a Mach-e and find it very funny every time someone with a sporty car does this to me. It's extra comical when it's another Mustang owner judging me lol

Not a bit of trouble at all!

I don't daily my Dark Horse but the factory Tremec feel was better than my 2012 GT with MT82 Barton Industries kit. The Tremec after installing the MGW kit is the best feeling manual I've ever used but I don't think it'd have any impact on ease of daily driving for me.

I've never autocrossed before. My high performance driving experiences have always been via a Mustang at the drag strip or a sport bike on a road course. My goal with the Dark Horse is to start working towards track days so I started small this weekend and signed up for an SCCA autocross event...

I see reflections of the dash on sunny days, too, but it's nothing novel to the Mustang. Polarized glasses work well to minimize it.

Any pics of the rest of the kit installed?

Wanted to follow up and thank you for posting about it earlier in the thread. I installed it on my Dark Horse and it is going to be very handy since the Steeda 4 point k member brace crosses right under and in the way of the oil drain hole.

It is an aggressive gear change but that's the point :) You use it when you're trying to extract the most out of the car. I'd find it logical that it could actually be easier on the drivetrain than manually getting back on the gas because the ECU is basing it on the clutch sensor and resuming...

Everything in the kits except for the longer vertical links fit and is on my car.

It was definitely an improvement over stock but I was still occasionally getting hop on my hard 1 to 2 shifts. My goal was to eliminate the chatter completely before my Whipple arrives so I went full ham and put the rest of Steeda's kit on it. There is ZERO wheelhop now that I've got it back...

I do have rev-match enabled and there isn't a setting for no-lift shift in my menus. I'm confident that besides the initial DH graphics, my in dash experience is the same as a magneride and active exhaust equipped GT so I believe your assumption to be correct. The Youtuber that has the first '24...

My Dark Horse.

Ok, I just tested it on a quick drive. 5000RPM is the cutoff. Test it yourself by going WOT in 2nd, shift after 5k and your tach will hold while you find the next gear. From 4500RPM it'll keep rev'ing. There is a distinct exhaust popping sound when the ignition cuts for no lift shift. Very much...

Only warm as in it's comfy and I like being inside it. The car, that is :D. For real, though. Oxford White and Ceramic tint makes for a very cool interior.

I'm sure that's why there's protections in place like the 7200 rpm soft limiter. what I meant is that one can't drive around like they're picking up groceries, leaving their foot at a 3rd throttle and expect no lift shifting to work. it's a max performance feature.
