    Manual or Automatic?

    You are silly, maybe traffic is not an issue in Eaton, CO population 2,450 or Denver (population 550,000) if you would like to pretend that you live in a big city (because its 70 miles away) but try rowing on the Edens expressway through Chicago population 2,869,000. You might see things a...

    First Performance Mod

    I hear you but That is an enviornmental issue. If I can take enough weight out of the car to equal the HC trap removal then I would do that first irrespective of the cost.

    First Performance Mod

    Should be a cold air intake, headers, and cermaic brake disks. The Mustang has "header like" iron exhaust manifolds. So even if the manifolds are as efficent as headers I would think that you could drop some serious weight with headers. I read the long/short tube thread regarding the...

    Hydracarbon Trap Removal

    consider yourself lucky Gilmour, I had a thread removed for poking fun at the Mach, Corbra, GTO, threads saying that the new GT just could not be as fast. The mod is right here no need to power bomb anyone since the GT is so new there is very little knowledge and most people are...

    05 Dyno / Product Testing

    I still own an '03 Z06 and the '05 Mustang stands tall but I don't think it handles like my Z06. I'm not sure its close enough to compare the two.

    sold 69 stang for new 2005gt

    You made the right decison It looks like your Mach was not a numbers matching car (engine and tranny swap) so its long term collector value is limited. Given the above, the best thing to do is build up a new crate motor, suspension and brake upgrades, etc to bring the car into the 21st...

    My Engine is Out of My Car...All of the threads

    Don't worry about this I know it sucks to wait for a car and then have it konk out on you in a couple of days. There is a field of statistics (survivorship analysis) that predicts this. The engineers at Ford will want to know why this happened and that will take some time. Ford does not...

    How Long can this go on?

    Every Mustang forum has long drawn out threads comparing the GTO with the new Mustang. Why does it seem that so many GTO owners feel the need to dismiss the Mustang and pump up the GTO (it is getting a bit worn out). If you own a GTO good for you - if you have and '05 with an LS2 better for...

    SHAKER 1000 OR SHAKER 500?????

    Yes, 1,000 is worth it I have the shaker 1000 in my 05 sonic blue and it is worth the price for several reasons. First, the speaker placement. There are more speakers in the doors, front, back and seats than the 500. So, to replicate the speaker placement will require cutting in your...

    '05 GT 5-speed fuel mileage.

    Made to run hard Auto Trans 13 on the first tank and 14 and climbing on the second tank. I only have about 287 miles in 2-weeks. I took it out last night and drove it a little harder on the interstate - a few WOTs up to 90+ and down again a few times. Funny thing was the harder I drove...

    Buyer Beware - GT Stripes - Bryan Quinn of The Graphix Factory

    Why Why delete this thread. I think I had one deleted and I'm not sure why other than I called :bs: on someone. These forums are for profit and excessive censoring will reduce customer flow. Nonetheless, I do agree that as for profit enterprises the owners should and can censor any...

    What is the best way to launch an Auto Trans

    Yep, I still have a car that I can row. I tried to convince my wife that she could learn to drive and love a manual but no go. I do have to admit that having one of each type auto and manual it is a nice break not having to shift all the time. - I think that also depends on the population...

    What fuel are you running 87 89 91

    This comes from how stuff works website "The octane rating of gasoline tells you how much the fuel can be compressed before it spontaneously ignites. When gas ignites by compression rather than because of the spark from the spark plug, it causes knocking in the engine. Knocking can damage an...
