    GT/CS floor mat question?

    When I ordered my GT/CS, the list of CS extras showed "California Special badged floor mats". However, when I picked it up, the floor mats simply have a brushed metal tab on them that says "Mustang". Did anybody else with a CS get anything different?

    I've narrowed my exhaust choices down to two. Opinions?

    That's good to know. I would prefer of course to put a combination on that will give me some better flow in the area of top end. However, I am committed to keeping the cats on so I guess it really doesn't matter which setup I go with, they will all be pretty close in performance, just with a...

    I've narrowed my exhaust choices down to two. Opinions?

    So would it be fair to summarize the two choices as being the difference between better sound and slightly better performance. If what I've read in other threads is right, the X pipe and Ford mufflers give better straight through exhaust flow. The H pipe and Flowmasters give much deeper better...

    I've narrowed my exhaust choices down to two. Opinions?

    According to the Ford X pipe instructions, you have to cut a small section of each pipe in front of the X pipe to mount the X pipe. I would assume that it would be similar with the MAC. But, the Ford X pipe is a bolt in using the same clamps. Is the MAC a weld in or a bolt in? Anybody do...

    I've narrowed my exhaust choices down to two. Opinions?

    There is a MAC Short Pro Chamber, part number PC2105, that looks to only replace the H pipe section that is about the same size as the Ford X pipe. They sell it on Nino for $299. It would seem that this part simply replaces the stock H pipe and leaves the cats in place. This is what I was...

    I've narrowed my exhaust choices down to two. Opinions?

    I'm confused though why the MAC would be an "off road" prochamber. It looks like there is a box where the H crossover pipe would go on a stock system. Since I would be keeping the cats, why would the MAC be considered off road?

    I've narrowed my exhaust choices down to two. Opinions?

    Thanks for the info. One of my preferences is to use as many Ford parts as possible. I know lots of folks on this site prefer to go with other aftermarket parts but I don't want the headaches with the dealer. I'm not a stoplight to stoplight racer and my car serves as a daily commuter. When...

    SS Inserts Fuel Door

    I'd like to see how it installs.

    I've narrowed my exhaust choices down to two. Opinions?

    One of the reasons I was considering the X pipe with the Ford is that the Shelby GT uses this setup, at least according to the Ford Racing catalog. It lists the Shelby GT as having the following: FORD RACING PERFORMANCE PARTS Power Upgrade Package M-2006-FR1 Handling Pack M-2005-FR3...

    I've narrowed my exhaust choices down to two. Opinions?

    I've got a new 07 GT/CS. I want to go with a different exhaust and I've listened to all of them on the different sites. I have narrowed it down to two choices. One is the Ford M-5230-GTA from Ford or Nino with an X pipe from Ford then installed. Second would be leaving the H pipe, or maybe...

    Roush California & front plates?

    People also steal stickers. In fact, that is one of the reasons folks should pull off the previous years stickers every so often. It makes it real easy to steal a sticker when there is 15 stacked stickers on the plate. The whole stack comes off easy. However, officers can also run a check on...

    255/50's vs 275/40's on stock rims?

    Just to piggyback on this conversation, what about the 18" rim situation that some of us are in? Anybody upsize their stock tires for a larger set on an 18" rim? Or should I start a new thread instead of hijacking? Did a search on tires and didn't come up with that much on the 18" rim topic.

    Shelby GT500 Spoiler fit GT Decklid

    I'm assuming there is tape on the two posts that the stock spoiler sit on? What did you use to clean it off?

    Factory Sirius module installed with a surprise.

    I just found that out. And, I spent half the day sitting in my new ride checking out all the channels and programming my favorites. It sounds great and having no commercials is priceless. I suspect my CD purchases may curtail a bit, but not go away completely as I have several other rides...

    Disappointed with new California Special

    Did you get an answer for this? Is that stock? I haven't had a chance to have someone check mine yet.

    The missus goes ballistic every time she comes in the den and sees me slobbering over all the aftermarket websites. I feel like I stumbled into a women's prison with a fist full of pardons...........

    Well, it's in the driveway. I've been sitting out in it programming the handsfree mobile phone bluetooth gismo that connects my cel phone to the car. Then I played with the stereo for a while, then played with the different colors on the dash. There is a light rain falling so no running...

    Factory Sirius module installed with a surprise.

    I ordered my new GT/CS with the Sirius option. I think you get a month or two free, then you have to pay. I'm curious as to whether or not I will opt to keep paying for it. Is it worth the cost? I listen to a lot of CD's.......

    The fleet manager I ordered it from, and a friend of mine, calls and says "your Mustang is in. That black sure looks pretty at night with the lights reflecting off of it." After my sphincter relaxed, and I could talk properly, I ripped him a new one for scaring me like that. I have a black...

    Unfortunately the dealer is about an hour away. I've been slobbering over eveyone else's ride though for weeks in preparation.
