    2005+ Mustang GT "Outlaw" model?

    I saw a red one in Plano, Texas. It looked nicely done. I don't know the source though.

    A couple pics.

    Congrats on the car and for taking off the pinstripes. It looks so nice and clean without a spoiler back there but I see you plan to add one. Enjoy it!

    Bilstein Struts and Shocks

    Congrats on the Bilsteins - you will like them! :nice:

    Does any body here NOT have the infamous front suspension thunk?

    No noises here either. I have H&R springs and Bilstein struts/shocks but still have the factory strut bearings.

    GT500 rear control arms

    They are probably a great compromise for those who have had aftermarket control arms with poly bushings before and endured the extra noise and harshness. I will be going the GT500 route if wheelhop becomes a problem. Don't count them out.

    GT Replacement Grill

    I don't know about the better quality part, but lower price probably. There is a lot of junk being produced these days.

    GT Replacement Grill

    Just wait for the Bullitt Mustang to come out and get the grille from that car. It will be just like the GT, but without the fogs and pony possibly (unless they change their mind again). :nice:

    offset?

    It would be in the neighborhood of 45-55mm, IMO. I have a 19x10 wheel with a 45mm and it's real close to flush with the sheetmetal. Figure another .5" to the outside with rim and it might have to have another 5 to 10mm of backspacing to split the difference. Hope that helps.

    Cobra + NOS = blown motor

    That's what wet nitrous systems are good for.

    Mustang BluePrints

    Alias is still around? I used Maya for years and now I use 3D Max (only because I have to at work - it's total crap). I built the V8 engine in the avatar in Maya. It's fully animated too. Here's a large one:

    Whats your favorite supercharger?

    You get what you pay for with the engineering, IMO. You can make over 500 flywheel hp with this kit with a pulley change (9psi, 435-450 rwhp). It has been done already. I know that is modest in comparison to the majority of the kits though.

    Whats your favorite supercharger?

    Roushcharger. It's the nicest looking kit IMO, although it's the most conservative power wise. It does have the only real warranty too, although others claim.

    How old is everyone?

    39, 6th Mustang. :) It will likely be my last, but I will probably keep it for a long time.

    Voiding the warranty

    I would do plenty of research before purchasing a TB. My opinion is that you already have the best one available on your car now. Have fun!

    Any regrets going w/ 20's over 18's

    I think 19s are perfect for the S-197, IMO. Yes, tire sizes are a bit limited right now but they had exactly what I wanted. Shameless self-plug forthcoming: :D

    How long was your special order wait?

    Mine took about six weeks to get as well. '06 Mustang GT, Torch Red, black leather, IUP, spoiler delete, locking lugs. I hope you get it soon!

    WHICH SPRINGS???

    I went with the 'Sport Springs', which were originally called the 'OE Sport Springs', part number 51655.

    Magnacharger Install....

    That's funny because when I first saw the Roush, I wished it was available in the silver color like the '04/'04 Cobras, and now the Magnacharger. Black ended up pretty nice against the red background, so I made my peace with it. I do wish that Roush would have gone with the larger M112 like...

    Magnacharger Install....

    The Roushcharger isn't really that complicated, it just seems that way because the supercharger/intercooler/manifold isn't delivered already assembled like some of the other kits. I installed mine and it was very straight forward. I even improvised on some of the parts and replaced them with...

    Clarkson LOVES the Roush.

    "This thing sits an inch lower than the standard Mustang, and it's 35% stiffer, and if I'm honest, so am I - this is fan-tas-tic!" :lol:
