    springs / how low before needing cc plates?

    Looking to lower my 09 GT. When I put on the Eibach sportlines on my 01 GT, I was so hyped that I forgot to put on the cc plates and those springs ate the crap out of my tires for 3 years (although it was worth it because the drop looked awesome). The stock gap between the wheel well and the...

    Can interior map lamps be disabled at unlock and shutdown?

    Hi, Sorry of this is a basic question. I just upgraded from an 01 GT to an 09 GT Friday (I'm totally psyched). Is there a way to disable the map lights from coming on when unlocking the car, or shutting the car off, or when opening the doors, w/o disabling the use of the map lights all...

    similar sound/gain w/ upr x and flows as 01 model?

    Hey guys, I'm going to be trading in my 01 GT for an 07 GT. My 01 has an o/r upr x pipe w/ flowmasters 40 series. IMO (just mine) you can't be the gains and sound with that config for the price. I'd want to do the same config for the 07 GT I'll be getting. Can I expect a similar sound and...

    Cracked thermostat housing /easy to fix?

    I was stuck in traffic today and noticed my temp gauge go almost to red and when I got home saw that , what I think, is my thermostat housing is now cracked. I've been looking online and I think the thermostat housing is actually the part that sits on top the thermostat itself. The part which...

    KC Clutch question, who screwed me?...provider or installer

    Hey guys, Wanted to know if I could get your input relating to my King Cobra clutch relacement fiasco. I ordered a King Cobra clutch kit online for my 01GT. The only disclaimer on the website (to remain nameless) was that this would not fit the T3650 transmission. I verified that I had the T45...

    Problem with my clutch?

    Hi guys, Wanted to get your thoughts on what's going on with my clutch. I have a 01 GT (5 speed) w/ 98,000 miles. I'd definitely assume that the life of my clutch will be expiring before too long. My clutch isn't slipping or squeeling, but you can hear it making a noise while the car is...

    Tire Pressure?

    Sorry to just post a question on tire pressure, but do you guys recommend keeping tires at the psi recommended by the tire company or by Ford? I got some Fuzion ZR1's and they recommend the tire psi to be 40, but the recommendation by Ford for my 01 GT is 30psi. Thanks in advance.

    Exhaust Leak after Xpipe install

    Hi, I installed an UPR O/R xpipe about 9 months ago on my 01 GT. There's been a small leak the entire time which I believe is coming out where the passenger side exhaust manifold connects to the xpipe. I can't hear anything that makes me think there's a leak, but I do notice exhaust smell...

    What can I do to gain low end torque after O/R X install?

    I replaced my MRT catted H with a UPR o/r X to compliment my 2 chamber flows. I'm completely satisfied with this combo except for the loss of low end torque. Besides a KB super charger of course, what can I do for under $500 to improve the low end torque and at least get it back to where it was...

    stang starts, then immediately dies..thoughts?

    I have 57,000 miles on my 01GT and have never had a single problem. On two seperate occasions over the past two weeks I have run into a situation where immediately upon startup it dies. Both times the car has not run in close to 24 hours. When this happens, I have been able to keep it from dying...

    Question on UPR X-PIPE install?

    I'm putting on a UPR o/r X-pipe this weekend on my 01GT. The pipe actually comes in two pices. Should I asemple the pipe before I put it on, or should I connect the two pieces to the headers in front first, then to the catbacks, and then connect the one piece in the middle of the pipe? I'd...

    Where to find cheapest prices on MIL eliminators

    If I'm not supposed to post this type of question, I apologize. Otherwise can anyone recommend where to I can get some MIL eliminators at a low price. I know there probably isn't too much variation in price but my funds are limited so ever dollar counts. Appreciate it.

    Is this the correct pipe for the 99-03 GT?

    Could I get clarification from you guys that this looks like the right X Pipe for the 99-04 GT. The description says "mustang / cobra" so it is a little confusing. I can't tell if that means it's for the mustang cobra, or it will fit a 99-04 Mustang GT or Cobra. It's the only pipe list for the...

    I got my 45,000 servicing done a while back and one of the things to have done is a brake check. Pads and everything were fine but the place I took it to recommended that I get the brake fluid changed in the near future (although fluid level was fine). I looked through the entire servicing guide...

    Hi, My current MOD's are MRT SS catted H, 2 chamber flows & K&N a/f. I have nothing but good things to say about the MRT pipe, but I kind of want to get an o/r pipe now. With that, I want to get an o/r X (in particular that UPR X people are talking about). The only thing I'm concerned about is...

    Ballpark labor cost to get springs & cc plates installed?

    Of course there is always the option to do it myself, but not sure if that's a possibility. What could I expect to pay to have a shop install springs & cc plates on my GT? (eibach sportlines, pro3i cc plates, 01 GT to be exact) Thanks in advance,
