So about 6 weeks ago I sold my 2004 Supercharged GT which made 420rwhp and 408 ft lbs and traded up to a brand new 5.0. Since they didn't have exactly what I wanted (more of the go less of the show) on the lot I opted to order. I was supposed to take delivery 11/6 but with the recent Hurrican on the east coast it was delayed to the 16th. Hopefully that is a long estimate and I will recieve it sooner. With that being said I am very familiar with the 99-04 but still getting acquainted with the 4V 5.0 so I have a few questions.
How common are transmission issues after 2 years of the Chinese MT82? I doubled the HP output of my '04 (albeit didn't make nearly as much stock) and had no problems with my Tremec 3650 w/ MGW short throw.
Anyone from PA deal with long tubes and inspection? I ran full exhaust (LT off road x etc.) on the '04 in Delaware and had no issues passing since I wasn't throwing a CEL. Hopefully LT won't void the warranty but I wouldn't be surprised. Anyone running Kooks LT or American Racing and have any good/bad feedback?
Thanks again. A little more information on the '13... GT premium package (400A), Track Pack, Recaro Seats, Shaker Pro (a little extra boom in the trunk)
