    Frustration With 2014 Gt (5.0 Motor Noise And Performance)

    The saddest part is I actually baby the car. Sure some pulls to get on the freeway, which here in CT sucks due to the short on ramps, but never past 5.5k rev or below. But I guarantee I baby my car more than 90% of the other 5.0 owners for fear of making the problem worse especially. This...

    Frustration With 2014 Gt (5.0 Motor Noise And Performance)

    I really do wish I could get a resolution on the problem. This motor sounds like it is on it's last leg at 10k miles. You would be disgusted to even be driving it. People actually look over at the car weird, not to check it out because of the sound. I have 3 buddies on base here with 5.0s...

    Frustration With 2014 Gt (5.0 Motor Noise And Performance)

    I have been dealing with this problem for the last year+ and the problem is getting exponentially worse day-t0-day and as if it wasn't bad enough before, I had the oil changed for the 2nd time recently (at the dealer mind you), and the car sounds even more like a pos than before. It is an...

    Anyone Else Sick Of Their 5.0 Developing A Knock

    So little back story on my car it is a 14 GT Premium (Brembo). I have only done axle back American Thunder Flowmasters on the car, because of everything out there regarding failures on these motors and warranties being voided, or else I would go crazy with mods. I have 9000 miles on the 14GT...

    2014 Track Pack (maximum Tire Fitment On 19x9 Wheels)

    Hello all. Figured I would use my resources here on stangnet. I have a 2014 Track Pack GT. Has the 19x9 wheels with the Brembo setup of course. What is the maximum tire size for the rears and fronts. Of course has the 255/40/R19s right now. Think it's 40s. Old age kicking in. I was...

    Clutch Issue (sticking)

    So first problem with my car (other than the annoying tapping/knocking sound from engine compartment). I know these factory clutches are atrocious at best at handling the 420hp coming from the crank but... I am having an issue with any kind of quick acceleration and shifting. 10 out of my 12...

    Problem With Ford Dealership Regarding 2014 Gt Track Pack

    Hmm don't see a way to edit the post. How can you verify that you actually have the track pack on the car? In the data plate information? I know I do because of the torsen differential, finned axle cover, brembo brakes, wheels, etc. For some reason I now have a 5w-20 oil cap on my motor and...

    Problem With Ford Dealership Regarding 2014 Gt Track Pack

    Additionally is there any way to get a printout, a no :poo: one that shows everything that was added to the GT's with the Track Package. I am sure I am going to need ammo for my defense and not for these guys but down the road also. Thanks guys/gals.

    Problem With Ford Dealership Regarding 2014 Gt Track Pack

    Thank you all for the replies. Was thinking to myself maybe I am wrong. So they called back yesterday and said to me "The Engineer we contacted at Ford said not to use 5w50 because it will ruin your motor and void your warranty"...... FordCustSrvc thank you sooo much. I just looked at the...

    Rearview is killing me!!

    2010 Mustang GT I have eliminated every bit of rattling in my audio setup but the rear view mirror is absolutely killing me. It rattles like crazy even on the lowest hits from the subwoofers... You put your pinky on it and barely touch it it goes away. I pried the small sensor piece out of...

    2010 Mustang GT Premium Shaker 500

    I have been looking online for 2 days now with no joy. I have found wiring harness color codes for 05-09 and 11-12 but none of those diagrams is resembling anything that matches the 2010 head unit J connector color codes. I would be SOOOOO greatful if someone knows the right answer to...

    Best cost to performance ratio upgrades?

    Hit the nail on the head in my thinking Sharad. I want a that daily driver car but at the same time a sleeper. Not ground FX or wipe open ram air hood obvious type things but the hidden stuff you wouldn't know about. Don't get me wrong the price just wasn't right in this area for the...

    Best cost to performance ratio upgrades?

    Definately wanting to put some money into it. Long term the real goal is to have the car I have always wanted. Gonna go with your recommendation Jaybex. Just grab a lifetime tune option so I can just send the ECM in as needed. Probably worth it for sure with mods here and there. So the...

    Best cost to performance ratio upgrades?

    Gotcha. Probably looking at 4k or so? With those 4 mods you listed + the tune? Figured it would run quiet a bit.

    Best cost to performance ratio upgrades?

    I just grabbed up a 2010 GT Premium mustang a few days ago. Got rid of my 2010 Lariat F-150. Been wanting a Mustang for a good 15 years now. With that being said. It is time to satisfy another hunger. I am looking to upgrade the car as soon as possible. I need some recommendations on...
