    rear end noise/squeeks while driving...

    Anybody getting squeaks and other noises from the trunk area while driving around? I figured some of the “rattling” was coming from the line running through the lower control arm. However, there are still some squeaks periodically coming from the trunk/rearend on rougher roads. Kinda makes...

    Coilovers vs. suspension packages?

    Anybody have any comparison info on coilovers vs. saleen/roush/ford racing suspension kits? The coilovers I'm looking into are H&R, Eibach, Tein, and KW. Which ones are best for ride comfort/ride height/handling? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm hoping for about a 1.5 inch drop...

    supercharger/NOS combo???

    Anybody doing a centrifugal supercharger/wet nitrous combo with a stock motor/bottom end?? Any problems, blown motors, safe power limits, etc?? Is it best to go with a non-intercooled system with a smaller shot of nitrous? Still be able to get around 420 rwhp safely?

    Fluids advice

    I've recently put my 05 mustang GT past the 36k mile mark. Now that I'm off warranty, any advice on what kind of oil treatment fluids, fuel cleaners (ie Slick 50), oil filters, oil, etc. are great on our stangs??? Should I just stick with what the local Ford dealer gives me, or is there some...

    Shorty header/supercharger combo??

    Good idea or not? Would the shortys still help over stock headers if the car is supercharged (say to about 460-500 flywheel)? Or would too much back pressure be a problem? I don't want to choke the system. Or is it safer to go supercharger with stock headers? Does a shorty header allow more...

    Paxton vs. Vortech...

    My first question to anyone is... Is there about a 20% drop difference from flywheel to rwhp on our 05 mustang GTs? If so, then would these blowers, non-intercooled, claiming 420rwhp feasibly be considered 500+hp cars and top the upcoming shelby's 475hp? I'm only thinkin of not intercooling my...

    C&L CAI question about the racer version...

    HAve any of you guys tried the racer C&L CAI? Does it require ONLY the Diablo Predator 2, or does the regular Predator carry a custom tune for this intake? I'm just wondering b/c I'd like to get that CAI with a set of Borla straight thru mufflers, and eventually upgrade to the Paxton or...

    JBA vs. Hooker long tube headers??

    Just wanted your opinion on these headers. I'm looking into getting ceramic coated long tube headers for my 05 mustang GT. So far I've liked the hooker headers but the car with them had no cats on. I'm interested in that deep roar, as well as performance increase. But most of all, quality...

    CHP Discrimination against mustangs!

    This is the third time I've been pulled over for speeding in two months. This last time I was going only 75 mph in a 65 on I-215 in So. California, when everyone else was averaging 85-90. I'm not even trying to speed, b/c if I really wanted to, we all know how easy and how fast we could go in...

    Looking for hood pins that won't rust...

    I just bought the exact sytec hood pins used on the Ford Racing 5.0L 2005 that's been kicking a$$ in the Grand Am Cup. However, my co-workers said that the metal used will rust too easy and that I should get a show-quality pin that has a more rust resistant metal or surface. Does anybody have...

    Torco transmission fluid

    I know someone who changed his trans fluid from stock in his 2001 mustang GT to I believe a 75W90. I think the stock runs 75W140 or 120. We used Torco and I wanted to know how many people heard of Torco. I'm thinking of doing the same thing for my 05 mustang GT cuz his shifting is butter...

    Eibach Pro kit vs. Steeda Lowering Springs

    I'm debating between which springs to get for my '05 mustang GT. Can anyone please help? I'm also wondering about the extra parts I need when lowering a car (ie. camber adjusters, relocation kits, etc.). Which parts do I really need? Can I have a reliable ride with just the new springs, or...

    wheels for 05 stang GT

    Anybody know of a similar rim to the Raceline GT with 3 bar knockoffs? I already know of Halibrand, and I'm just trying to get more prices on rims before I buy. I like the Raceline GT's in 20s but I'm having a hard time finding a good price for them, and I'd like to know of any other brands...

    Suspension questions

    :flag: Anybody got some info on 2005 mustang suspensions? I'm interested in lowering my 05 GT, but I know it may adversely change certain things with the geometry. I'd like to know what I can keep as stock under there and what I should get with my lowering springs in order to safely lower my...
