What did you do to your S650 Mustang today?? 🙋🏻‍♂️

[DHGOOD]

Yesterday I installed Steeda stop the hop on my 2025 GT. Props to Steeda on parts that fit without cutting or welding or mods. Took me about an hour per side but I get distracted easily. Drove it to work today and it does indeed feel more solid/connected when I tromp it in low gear. More daily testing to come but I like i

The Stop the Hop kit is worth every bit of the materials it is made of. IMO, it is one of their better products.

Built my garage with a 12-ft ceiling to accommodate a lift and I’ve had it for 10 years now. Makes working on cars much easier. I spent my youth(and then some) on my back under cars and trucks but as I got older, the up and down wears me out.

Going to have mine installed at the end of the month. I was told that this really great for a Mustang to have, but a necessity if you have a supercharger.

And the Steeda bars give you a place to position the rear lift pads(or jack). The angle on the front of the bars sticks down below the rocker pinch so it keeps from smooshing the plastic rocker molding too.

Yes, thats mostly why I put them on - Kooks long tube competition connect headers are next then whipple stage 2 in the fall. I hate to quit driving the car long enough to do the install!

Are those Kooks headers??

Yes, 1-7/8 with the performance connection pipes through a Corsa Resonated Double H 3' all the way out.
I was going to do a 2' setup, but my tuner advised me that the 1-7/8 would be more than enough.

Great to see the underside of the cars and the work you guys have done.

A 30 dollar speaker up front really makes that much difference?

Yes, much better than the $1.29 speaker that is OEM.

I really like this setup. Thanks for adding the links. I wanted to do something like this; I did not want to pay the expensive mod that had you cut the panel from FatHouse. Also, the Whipple Supercharged is a nice touch. I have Mustang in 3D vinyl in the Red White Blue setup.

This is a nice mod; I'll pick one up. I know the Pioneer sub made a noticeable difference to the B&O system. Did not know changing the center would also help this along. I have the TSD10D4 Dual Voice 4ohm Pioneer sub.

Thanks.

The Pioneer sub is an improvement, but still massively underpowered. With both rear seats up you can't hear it at all. I keep one rear seat folded down to hear it a little better. Bonus: the exhaust is a little louder inside as well.

I think the biggest factor with the sub is it's wattage capability. It's too high. The OEM stereo can't send enough power to it to make it effective.

I read where a low wattage sub really makes the most of the weak power that goes to it. If I ever replaced my Pioneer, I'd try to find a sub with a really low wattage rating.

I did a ton of research, and I stand by my decisions that I installed and am perfectly happy with: Kenwood KFC-X3C dashboard speaker and DD Audio SW10 subwoofer upgrade.

The 10" Pioneer I got was 1300W, which is way too high. The SW10 you got seems rated at 600W which seems much more reasonable. I wish I got the one you bough. I bet it does sound better.
