In my nearly 7,000lb truck, I do exactly as you described. I donāt get in a hurry, take off easy and brake way in advance of a stop, even when Iām not hauling anything. Itās a truck designed for hauling, not racing. Yet, on the Super Duty forums people are all the time talking about 0-60 times...
I 100% agree.
I bought my GT because as a whole I like it the best. That is factoring in price, looks, performance, comfort, and reliability. If all I cared about was the 1/4 mile time, I'd have bought something different. If all I cared about was the fastest lap on the track, how cheap it...
Just to see, I built my exact spec 2024 Mustang with the 2025 builder, and the MSRP is $66,400 versus the $61,270 MSRP of my 2024. Thatās a $5,130 or 8.4% increase. Granted some of that increase was made on the 2024 models after my build, but thatās still a pretty big jump. Just the base MSRP is...
Here are some general recommendation from experience.
1. Ask if they can pull the car where you have plenty of room to back up and look at it from all sides with nothing in your way (i.e. not in a parking space next to other cars). It's usually easier to spot things outside with good...
I agree. The Steeda H pipe sounds good and is relatively inexpensive; however, I love the AWE Switchpath I have been running for the last seven months.
There is very little drone above 1600rpm. I would say there is still some slight drone, but you almost have to be actively trying to hear it in order to notice.
Yes, Iām still running the AWE Switchpath. It is louder on cold starts, but not to a large degree. I would say quiet mode with the AWE is somewhere between quiet and normal with the stock system. Normal with AWE is again probably between normal and sport mode when stock. While it is a little...
I had the Steeda H pipe on mine for about 3 months and really liked it. I've had the AWE Switchpath since December, so I went back to look at my previous comments about it since couldn't recall exactly what I thought of the volume difference. Here's what I said in that thread:
I think I may have made a mistake by going to an open track day for the first time yesterday; Iām hooked! Iāve never been in any car on a track previously, so it was somewhat intimidating at first, but after a few laps I fell in love with it. It was fun learning what the car was capable of and...
Itās Dragy Lap. I didnāt even think about it until I got down there and someone said something about Dragy, and sure enough there was a track app. It worked pretty well.

I just got back with my car after running it at The FIRM in Starke, Florida. The car held up great in the morning. In the afternoon after 10 laps (15 minutes) I got a warning the axle temp was high and to reduce speed. After letting it cool down I went back out and made it another 5 laps before...
I may go to the track (The FIRM) tomorrow if my daughter-in-law doesnāt go into labor. If I get down there, Iāll report back on what temps Iām seeing on the track.
