Well, Tigerchevelle, as the proverbial "really old" guy (78 in my case), I take your thinking as constructive advice, rather than criticism! I wouldn't mind doing this type of stuff, and have done similar in the past, but getting a car up high enough on jack stands to crawl under and do this...

I have Ford Perf X-pipe on my 2024 GT and had shop do the install. It isn't that hard IF you have access to a lift. It is basically cut off the resonator at the right places and fit the X-pipe into the opening, with clamps to hold everything together. But, it would be WAY tough (IMO) without...

Those offsets really work! Especially the rears. Notice any issue versus stock? Dropping to 35 aspect ratio versus 40 stock also has slight impact, unless the larger width offsets? Nice look regardless!

Comparing your build sheet and pricing to my very similar 2024 gives some interesting insight to Ford's pricing strategies: You had to add $1160 for the B&O sound system, $700 for the anti-theft along with the $2900 401A option to equal exactly what my $2900 401A option included! Plus, your...

I have 2024 GT with std exhaust. I did Ford Performance X-Pipe resonator delete and am quite happy with the result. The X-pipe did open up the sound nicely without being too raucous. I get some pops on over-run, but nothing extreme. The X-pipe plus install was maybe $300, so very reasonable...

I bet the dealer inventory buys are more like 90-95% auto, unless Ford forces a slight push of manuals. Not that many younger buyers interested in manuals anymore, or even know how to use them! Sort of sad, but that is how we are ending up with EVs and no tranny at all! Agree if you want a...

Guys, if you can do Mustang Unleashed, DO IT! They do a TERRIFIC job at this one-day event of giving you significant track time plus some very good smaller driving events. Totally worth it!

@AZ_Ryan I agree with your thoughts here 100%! These are NOT hand-built, $200K cars! Plus, they have LOTS of very complex technology and performance parts, which is why we love them in the first place! Just me, but trying to nit-pick every little appearance item on a car like the Mustang is...

Both R8s were fantastic! The first was 2015 Competition model, only about 60 in the US, but had DCT, which although it operated perfectly well, just didn't do it for me (I'm on old-time MT guy). The second was MT conversion on earlier 2012 V10 with the gated shifter, etc and it was much more...

Very interesting thread here! I have owned several BMWs, plus Porsches of the late 90's into 2010 period and they were all great cars. Only issue became maintenance cost out of warranty that made me move on to a great couple of Vettes (C6/7), again both really nice cars with great performance...

Trella: thanks! I actually applied mine higher than intended as you can see. Mine sit above the concave section near the rocker panel. But I liked the look better that way, seemed to lighten the look of the side better in the higher position. Made the fit-up at the rear wheel look a little...

Sent this photo before, but here are the side stripes I did on my 24 GT with the black/red OEM top stripes. Makes a very nice looking combo and similar to what you are proposing from RTR, but with a little more total coverage. I added the red stripe in the middle with a custom red vinyl stripe...

Sounds interesting, but suspicious as well! Will be fun to see how this develops. AWE is a good company, so hopefully, they will have some solid info on how this would upgrade our 5.0s.

Well, the AS/S feature had proven to be a gas saver over the entire population for many years. Facts are facts, guys, and let's not confuse what is going on here with reality! Just like doing away with the Fed Govt authority to legislate climate change laws, this has nothing to do with the...

Just a practical comment here on my 2024 GT Premium with std 6MT. I find it just fine to drive in all situations. The shift action is smooth and fast and the ratios seem just fine for street and spirited backroad driving. You never get past 4th in those modes anyway, so the big drop-off going...

I did Eibach lowering spring set on my non-PP GT Premium and really loved the result! The lowered stance is perfect (see photo of mine) and the ride quality was not affected at all. I don't do any real performance driving that pushes the handling, so can't comment on impacts on that front, but...

111 Bronze is about direct match to the standard GT bronze wheels I got on my 2024!

Just my two cents, as both Vette and 'Stang owners multiple times over the years: the ZR1X is beyond compare for outright performance/cost, no hands down. To compare the $200K ZR1X to the now likely $400K GTD is to simply highlight the difference in volumes assumed by Chev and Ford. Both are...

Here (I think!) is link to my car getting moved back into garage just now. Should give you some idea on sound at least. Hopefully, the link works! Transfer - Dropbox

Yes, all std non-active with just the X-pipe. I will see about a video. It sounds great inside the car! Pretty sure it's louder outside! :cool:
