    Which to buy, 2005 - 2009?

    Also remember that in '07+ they started using the TPMS system so if you change out your wheels you'll have to buy a relocation kit to turn off the light in your dash.

    colored ccfl kit?

    I'm not positive and it may be state dependent, but colored halos are usually illegal. On top of that I think you'd have to heat the glue around the headlight and then pry it apart by the lens which could result in cracking it and ruining the headlight. Not worth it to me but it's your risk if...

    4.6 3v mustang vs. explorer

    The explorer block is an iron block while the 2005+ Mustang block is aluminum, but they do use the same aluminum heads.

    Drag Radials on Stock 17" Rims?

    Probably a stupid question, but I'm going to be replacing my stock wheels/tires this spring and was thinking about getting two of the stock 17" rims mounted with drag radials for the strip. Anyone know if they make them in a size to fit that or if it's even worth it to try and do this?

    Pypes muffler clearance help (07 GT)

    Yeah it sounds like they might have to cut some pipe and put a new angle in there or something along those lines. That sucks but surely a little muffler shop could hook you up for cheap.

    Lowering my 07 Gt500

    I lowered mine with the FRPP K-Springs and didn't NEED the adjustable panhard bar but as it's already been stated, the lower you go the further it changes your suspension geometry so I went ahead and picked up the double adjustable panhard bar from UPR Products. Figured it's a decently cheap...

    4.6 to 5.4 swap

    If you did do the swap you'd have to pick up the controller pack for around 1500 dollars. So if you could do the work yourself you'd probably just be better off rebuilding what you've got. Unless you happen to come across a really good deal on an aluminator like SpartaPerformance suggested.

    custom plates

    I just recently got MTANG25 on my '08. You can see it in my profile picture. Decided it was time for a change since the plates I had were from high school!haha

    Recommendations on a short shifter?

    The MGW was $280, but they are awesome! I've heard of some complaints, never owned others, about rattling or hard shifts with the Steeda and Pro 5.0 shifters. To each is own, I just love the MGW shifters and have always had great results with them.

    Black Ghost Stripes?

    So I'm really thinking about getting a matte black super snake stripe for my GT. I've seen some pictures and I really like it. I just don't want to do something permanent and then decide I don't like it. What's everyone think? The new wheels I'm going to be putting on are Anthracite Bullitt...

    Recommendations on a short shifter?

    +1 on the MGW. I had one in my 02 GT and it was one of the best mods I made. I've got one in the box at home:nice: waiting for install on the 08 GT when I get back from this sh**hole country! :)

    X or H pipe?

    I'm thinking I'm gonna go with the O/R H-pipe. I like that deeper sound with these motors. Just trying to figure it out! Decisions decisions. I've got some time though, I gotta get it ready for Hot Rod PowerTour 2012. My dad is thinking about getting an X on his 06 so it's become a comp now!

    Off road X/H pipe

    Yeah you would have to buy a new mid-pipe if you switched to LT headers. Obviously because it has to be shorter. If you are going to go LT I think I would personally just wait until you get the headers and get the mid-pipe at the same time. Just opinion though.:nice:

    X or H pipe?

    Being that the 40 series are chambered I was leaning more towards the h-pipe but not sure, hence the thread! :shrug:

    X or H pipe?

    Just looking for some opinions. I've got an '08 Mustang GT with a JLT CAI, FRPP Hot Rod Cams, Flowmaster 40 series and am trying to decide whether to get an X or off road H-pipe. I want great sound and some of the sound clips I've heard with the x-pipes are almost too "dirty" of a sound...
