  1. Issue after getting rear axel and hub replaced. Dealer refuses to diagnose.

    Could it be from the sloppiness in the rear suspension? Best video on this is from Steeda with their "stop the hop" solution: https://www.steeda.com/Steeda-S550-Mustang-Stop-The-Hop-Starter-Kit-555-4455 That may also explain the alignment as Steeda recommends this (alignment) being done as...
  2. Space Age Manual Transmission

    Yes it does help a lot for daily driving with all the traffic, intersections, distracted drivers, road rage, etc. So do the other features included with the manual, hill assist and bringing up the revs when starting in first gear as well as reverse. The only downside is getting ridiculed in...
  3. Coyote Oil Viscosity in High Temp Climates ?

    That's interesting and explains a lot. I don't follow Euro spec. So Ford may be limited to API/ILSAC specs here in the USA. I believe SP GF-6a is limited to 0/5w-20, 0w/5w/10w-30.
  4. Coyote Oil Viscosity in High Temp Climates ?

    Yeah, this is where I am confused. Motorcraft 5w-50 is an SN rated oil, not SP (while I can't find it's ILSAC rating, SN is generally GF-5). So Whipple isn't recommending to use oils specifically formulated to reduce LSPI (low calcium, etc.).
  5. OTA Insight

    Wow, I’m currently at just over a month. My guess is I live in a bad cell area and downloading multiple Gigabytes of data over cellular will take a while. Just didn’t think it would be this bad. Do you live in a bad cell area?
  6. what oil does the factory put in the 2024 mustang gt

    I'm in the category of over thinking it :blush: It is the same spec for Ecoboost, which is more prone to LSPI (low speed pre-ignition) because it is both GDI and Turbocharged. https://www.enginelabs.com/engine-tech/oiling-systems/a-direct-injection-specific-oil-could-save-your-ecoboost-engine/...
  7. Would Bilsteins make a noticeable difference on my new GT?

    Well, I duped myself into getting one. My 2022 Ecoboost felt more nimble and planted than the 2024 GT (not that it makes a difference, but they're both 6 speed manuals). So I thought, maybe this strut tower brace would stiffen things up. Butt dyno tells me zero difference, except it's a little...
  8. Official DARK MATTER GRAY Mustang S650 Thread

    Job 1 (no start stop) 6 speed manual.
  9. Locking wheel nuts

    The Ford McGard locking lug nuts and keys cannot take 150 ft lbs. My 2022 Ecoboost had to have all 5 cut off at local tire shop when my key destroyed itself (dealer made me purchase them to make the sale, on a good note they gave me two sets so I put one on eBay). I didn't even attempt to put...
  10. Lift pads vs jack pads

    Has anyone who installed the jack pads also bought new frame/sub frame bolts vs. reuse the one-time use from factory?
  11. LMR's Labor Day Sale!

    Very interested in the Jack Pads (vs. Jacking Rails).
  12. Adding Active Valve Exhaust to a non-AE

    So in both of your cases, were the 3 additional wires (PR3Z-14A411-A * 2) + (PR3Z-14A411-C * 1) required to get power down to the actuators (PR3Z-5K245-B * 2)? Or did you find that even sending power to them is controlled by the stock S650 computer control system, so something else would be...
  13. Dual to Quad Exhaust Question.

    Are you looking for Active Valve Exhaust (AVE) where the noise level can be controlled or just going to quad tips (two on each side) vs. dual tips (one on each side)? Adding true AVE to a non-AVE vehicle is difficult and requires aftermarket components to control the open/close state since the...
  14. AWE Sale Starts Now here at Lethal Performance!!

    Great thank you for that. There is another thread in here where the poster was able to add all the components, wiring harness, active exhaust, rear valance, but couldn't get the computer to control the valves through ForScan. This is very tempting
  15. AWE Sale Starts Now here at Lethal Performance!!

    Do you know if SwitchPath Catback Quad Tips (SKU: 3025-42650) can be fitted to a non-Active Valve vehicle. This would at least need the SwitchPath remote and valve controller (SKU: 1325-11012) as well as modified or new quad tip rear valence from Ford, and maybe something to tab in to the wiring...
  16. Adding Active Valve Exhaust to a non-AE

    I wonder if the AWE SwitchPath Remote Control exhaust can more readily be added to a car that didn’t come with AE. It has its own actuators and control module that needs to tap into the wiring harness. From there opening and closing is only via the remote regardless of mode. So it would at least...
  17. My Watch Has Ended...

    Wow, that color is beautiful (Blue Ember?). Congrats and enjoy the 6 speed. I love my manual, I know they had some bad teething pains early on with the MT-82 (I had it in my 2022 Ecoboost as well), but I can't imagine how nice your Tremec is.
  18. Wrench + Jack

    A lot of shops now use "torque sticks", which can only be used with an impact.
  19. Anyone else following this story, cracked sparkplugs...

    As an influencer, he absolutely is getting to the front of the line. Also, this is for a SEMA build (I think wide body kit). That's how people are able to buy their Halo cars as well.
  20. Anyone else following this story, cracked sparkplugs...

    But why. I’m trying to understand if it’s something mechanical, fuel delivery related, other.
