    Power Adder Suggestions

    Mine put down 438 RWHP / 444 RWTQ stock. After JLT intake & custom tune by Justin @ VMP it hit 525 RWHP / 500 RWTQ. Added 87 RWHP & 56 RWTQ...not bad for about $850.

    gt500 brembo's fit over 20" fooses???

    When I first got my GT500 I really wanted a set of the Foose Nitrous wheels. They look real sharp. But I couldn't get anyone to confirm or deny that they would fit. I even contacted Foose directly to see if they would fit, or if they could make some custom ones, but I never heard from them...

    315/35/20 Tires - Any problems with suspension?

    If the 315's prove to be too wide, there's plenty of guys rolling 305's with no problems. Just thought I'd throw another option in for ya. edit: Actually now that I think about it....the 305's were on 18". Not sure about availabilty for 20s...the 295's might be the ticket.

    S197 rear quarter "dents"???

    Thank you all for posting up. I appreciate the input. At this point I have no idea what could be causing this....unless its a problem originating from the factory. I mean, I looked my car over intently when I bought it and never noticed the dents. I didn't notice them until 4 months old or...

    S197 rear quarter "dents"???

    It does kinda line up with a bracket on the interior of the panel. Its where the vert top well bolts to the side. However, this problem has been noticed on coupes as well, and I don't know what it looks like on the inside of a coupe. Could it be about the same place that the rear shelf is...

    S197 rear quarter "dents"???

    I don't know if this topic has been discussed. I tried searching and couldn't find anything, so forgive me if this has been covered. Has anyone noticed dents on the rear quarter panels of your S197? They're vertical looking dents a few inches forward of the top center of the wheel well...

    Should i go get a 07 Gt?

    No! Get a GT500! I get 24mpg on the highway. Its no 30, but then if I only went 60mph in 6th I might get close? Still not bad for a 500hp monster. And I'd LOVE to take mine on the autobahn.

    GT500 Power right seat??

    Not sure. You could probably fabricate some brackets to raise the seat if you really wanted to. But I don't know if this would have any effect on the airbag system or not. I never sit there anyways, so my passengers are just SOL if they don't like it! :D

    GT500 Power right seat??

    Passenger seat is not power. It may have the lumbar, but I'd have to check. And it definitely sits low!

    Aftermarket NAV system on 2005-up...speed sensor help

    Has anyone tried installing an aftermarket NAV system in their 05-up stang? I recently installed a Clarion NAX970HD with a MAX675VD head unit in my 07 shelby and am having trouble finding the speed sensor connection (from the ecm or dash speedo). Someone told me that on 05-up Mustangs the...

    First impression & upgrades?

    I finally got my GT500 after months of phone calls, frustration, hope, and disappointment. But I love it! My next car had to be a convertible, and when I saw the spy photos, I said "They BETTER make it in a vert!" Its so much fun. I'm used to my 96, and hadn't even driven a S197 until my...

    Glass Roof in a GT500?

    The dealership I got my Shelby at had a Saleen with the glass roof. It looked awesome, but it was HOT. They said it didn't have any kind of shade either. I'd check to see if they make a shade for it.

    The Saleen PJ edition.

    Yes, they are available (the car that is, dunno bout the body kit). The dealer I got my Shelby at had one. There's a few on eBay also. Sweet car.

    Why buy GT500 over Saleen PJ?????????

    Well I finally broke down and got a Shelby today. The dealer i got it from also had a Parnelli and a bunch of other stangs (Steeda, Roush, other Saleens). The Parnelli is definitely an awesome ride. They also had a Saleen with the glass-back roof, which was pretty nifty, but not for me (that...

    Any GT500 problems yet?

    Thanks for posting up! I haven't got one yet, but its good to hear of any potential issues. If the one I get has the shifting issue, it'll be making a LOUD clunk the way I'll be driving it. I stopped by today to look at a black vert and let me tell you, these dealers don't know jack. I mean...
