    springs / how low before needing cc plates?

    Looking to lower my 09 GT. When I put on the Eibach sportlines on my 01 GT, I was so hyped that I forgot to put on the cc plates and those springs ate the crap out of my tires for 3 years (although it was worth it because the drop looked awesome). The stock gap between the wheel well and the...

    Can interior map lamps be disabled at unlock and shutdown?

    Hi, Sorry of this is a basic question. I just upgraded from an 01 GT to an 09 GT Friday (I'm totally psyched). Is there a way to disable the map lights from coming on when unlocking the car, or shutting the car off, or when opening the doors, w/o disabling the use of the map lights all...

    similar sound/gain w/ upr x and flows as 01 model?

    Hey guys, I'm going to be trading in my 01 GT for an 07 GT. My 01 has an o/r upr x pipe w/ flowmasters 40 series. IMO (just mine) you can't be the gains and sound with that config for the price. I'd want to do the same config for the 07 GT I'll be getting. Can I expect a similar sound and...

    Cracked thermostat housing /easy to fix?

    Just found out that that plastic part is connected to the intake manifold. I don't have the time of the tools to replace that entire thing. Not looking forward to the call from the shop to give the final $$$ amount.

    Cracked thermostat housing /easy to fix?

    I was stuck in traffic today and noticed my temp gauge go almost to red and when I got home saw that , what I think, is my thermostat housing is now cracked. I've been looking online and I think the thermostat housing is actually the part that sits on top the thermostat itself. The part which...

    KC Clutch question, who screwed me?...provider or installer

    Hey guys, Wanted to know if I could get your input relating to my King Cobra clutch relacement fiasco. I ordered a King Cobra clutch kit online for my 01GT. The only disclaimer on the website (to remain nameless) was that this would not fit the T3650 transmission. I verified that I had the T45...

    Problem with my clutch?

    Thanks for all the replies guys. One last question...how do I find out which tranny I have. I heard they changed some of the parts they were putting on the 01GT's midway though that year, so just wanted to make sure. Thanks again

    are caster/camber plates really necessary?

    I've had eibach sportlines on my 01 GT for almost three years now (about the same drop as yours, maybe 1/4" lower). I bought the cc plates but never put them on. Other people will tell you that w/o cc plates they see no unnatural tire wear whatsoever, but I don't know how that's possible. I see...

    Problem with my clutch?

    Hi guys, Wanted to get your thoughts on what's going on with my clutch. I have a 01 GT (5 speed) w/ 98,000 miles. I'd definitely assume that the life of my clutch will be expiring before too long. My clutch isn't slipping or squeeling, but you can hear it making a noise while the car is...

    Tire Pressure?

    Sorry to just post a question on tire pressure, but do you guys recommend keeping tires at the psi recommended by the tire company or by Ford? I got some Fuzion ZR1's and they recommend the tire psi to be 40, but the recommendation by Ford for my 01 GT is 30psi. Thanks in advance.

    Exhaust Leak after Xpipe install

    Hi, I installed an UPR O/R xpipe about 9 months ago on my 01 GT. There's been a small leak the entire time which I believe is coming out where the passenger side exhaust manifold connects to the xpipe. I can't hear anything that makes me think there's a leak, but I do notice exhaust smell...

    Buying UPR xpipe, what extra will I need to buy for installation?

    You don't need to buy anything extra. I put my upr on about 6 months ago and everything that came with the pipe was all I needed. I don't believe it came with manifold bolt replacements so I just used the stock ones. But it did come with the bolts for the two catback connections and the...

    New Springs, Simple Question

    I put on some eibach sportlines over 6 months ago and left the stock shocks/struts on. All I can say is that the handling is a lot better and I have no complaints.

    What can I do to gain low end torque after O/R X install?

    I'm not saying my low end totally dropped off, I can still spin the tires from zero and chirp them going in to second. It just feels like I need to be at about 3500 rpms with the X to get same pull I felt at just over 2000 rpms with the H. I can definitely say the high end with the X is awesome...

    What can I do to gain low end torque after O/R X install?

    I replaced my MRT catted H with a UPR o/r X to compliment my 2 chamber flows. I'm completely satisfied with this combo except for the loss of low end torque. Besides a KB super charger of course, what can I do for under $500 to improve the low end torque and at least get it back to where it was...
