@GrabThatBlue ..... I salute your efforts to help fellow Mustang brothers get the cars they want in Europe. That said, I don't appreciate your political comment that "the United States is making a tarif (sic) war with the whole world." I lived in Europe for four years and was well aware at that...

Fingers crossed. Today Congress votes to rescind Californication's "tailpipe emissions laws" that have over ridden Federal omission legislation to make the requirements punitive and soon, if unchecked, impossible for ICE vehicles in Californication. It looks like Congress will rescind them and...

@Germansheperd ..... and blue vapor metallic, sure will look great in the sun.....the color changes in pretty cool ways depending on the ambient light! The questions will be a pita but I answer them all good naturedly.

@Alan Applegate ...... 100% agree with your opinion. From family dyno experiences - over 50 years, we had our own dyno -there are NO easy/cheap HP gains. Noticeable HP with add-ons is a myth. It costs serious money to get serious HP and it costs a LOT of money per HP at that. If you want looks...

@lcbrownz .....only average components? Maybe if you had a clue what you were talking about. Regardless, so stick with your 2007 and stop whining. Leave the S650s to us.

@Dale_K ..... for any type of active exhaust to function there must be clearance around the port that opens and closes to prevent binding particularly as the parts heat-up. Noise gets past this opening. So any type of aftermarket valved exhaust will be louder than a non-valved one. I would...

There won't be any noticeable HP gains. Have used K&N on auto and marine high HP builds but no difference - even on dyno. IMO they are a pita. You have to maintain them religiously or they can actually harm the engines. You might hear a bit of intake draw sound but that doesn't equate to HP...

......as for stealing any on the newer cars just put an analogue kill switch in it. $500 will make it invisible and totally safe for your electronics and Ford will approve it. Half the nation of Ukraine can be on a Cray computer trying to hack your ride and they'll never start it. I have...

@Tamadrummer88 ..... congratulations. I did the same with a 2024 GT Premium Convertible. Almost 7K off. Just a matter of being in the right place at the right time and able to make a decision fast! :cool: Rim up-grade, Bose up-grade, Premium package up-grade, space gray interior, vapor blue...

@n_123 .... interesting. Personally I don't like amsoil, despite all of the data they offer. My brother in law used it on his fleet of trucks. They all started using oil. It was too "thin" in our opinion at all of its rating points. He switched to another full synthetic and the use declined...

I went through the online manual and printed the table of contents then used it to select the sections I wanted to have handy. Worked well.

@n_123 and @Wiley Marmot ...... did you guys vary the speeds during break in (say the first 250 miles) did you change out the factory oil for full synthetic at some point? Did you start to get on the pedal after say 500 miles. A quart in 3-5K? I'd be freaked.

@schmeky7 ..... 2024 GT 5000 miles. I can see no movement on the dipstick no matter how closely I look, so I'd say no visible oil consumption. My 2014 was the same, even at 30,000 miles.

@akawease ...... what app did you download?

Yeah, how - please.

Read the fine print regarding modifying your engine instead of listening to gossip. Ford does NOT have to honor ANY modifications done by their dealers (who are totally independent of corporate Ford) whether using a Ford part or not. The dealers (stealerships as some on here have said) will tell...

@MikeE55 ..... that is oil. Blackish is fuel or carbon. Whitish is condensation. That is definitely bluish and is from oil. You are right to investigate.

@SweptVolume ..... "brilliant" as my UK family members "across the pond" from me' would say and a salute to your common sense - which apparently isn't shared by some. Here in NA posts from the USA to Canada have shown a failure to cover these holes usually results in damage. Service techs now...

@Gregs24 ...... actually I read your post carefully. Several thoughts, you have already had some stone chips and the attendant rust. Is your intent to continually monitor and touch-up the future chips? If so, what is your time worth. My time is worth more than a piddly 200 pounds on a very...

@Gregs24 ..... respectfully disagree. That leading edge is the start of your main frame pinch weld. Too many reasons to list - all of which have been recorded at length elsewhere. A second major concern is debris (dirt etc.) gets trapped by the new under carriage body skirts and creates a rust...
