    "Dustop" highly recommended for '05-'06

    I just put my '05 GT away for the winter and finished the process off by covering her with a car cover called Dustop from California Car Covers. It fit perfectly and the quality is very good for the price. I highly recommend it for anyone storing their Mustang indoors. Here are pics and more...

    Need 2.3L advise.

    My brother is turning 16 in January and we are looking for a Mustang for him. He wants a fox but we are having trouble finding a 5.0 that he can afford. There is a guy in town selling a 1988 2.3l for $900. I know very little about the 2.3 b/c I have always delt with the 5.0. I do know...

    Does any ducktail meet these specs?

    Is there a ducktail out there for '05-'06 that comes pre-painted to match color of the car, covers the factory holes left by spoiler and installs without drilling (i.e. 3M tape)? :shrug:

    Custom SCT tune...am I paying to much?

    Force Performance in Yonkers, NY said they would do a custom SCT tune for my 05 GT as well as install my JLT CAI and give me an XCalibrator 2 for $500. They will tune it on a dyno until they get the Air/Fuel and everything else right as well as get some decent power out of it. I am real new to...
