Anybody getting squeaks and other noises from the trunk area while driving around? I figured some of the “rattling” was coming from the line running through the lower control arm. However, there are still some squeaks periodically coming from the trunk/rearend on rougher roads. Kinda makes...

Thanks Mr. Q. I'm starting to lean toward KW based on your info, which corraborrates with a couple shops and driving schools I've contacted. I've heard about the harsh Tein ride. I wouldn't mind either H&R or KW. We'll see what happens. Thanks again! :nice:

I've heard the same thing about Tein. Though I heard ppl liking them for other cars. We'll see. How much were your Eibach's? Also, anyone know much about KW? It's been hard to find anyone who knows much about them or like them.

Anybody have any comparison info on coilovers vs. saleen/roush/ford racing suspension kits? The coilovers I'm looking into are H&R, Eibach, Tein, and KW. Which ones are best for ride comfort/ride height/handling? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm hoping for about a 1.5 inch drop...

Anybody doing a centrifugal supercharger/wet nitrous combo with a stock motor/bottom end?? Any problems, blown motors, safe power limits, etc?? Is it best to go with a non-intercooled system with a smaller shot of nitrous? Still be able to get around 420 rwhp safely?

What about Q from Quaker State? Anyone try this one? I may be going after Royal Purple or Mobil 1, but how do blends stack up against true synthetics in engine life, cleanliness, and performance?

no oil treatments? why? what can happen? How does Mobil 1 compare to Royal Purple, and the dealer motorcraft? Also, how does the ford racing filter compare to the K&N oil filter and the dealer motorcraft? :shrug:

Yeah, but the fluids they use... are those the best out there for my mustang?? I hear about Royal Purple, and I hear about engine treatment fluids that go in when you change your oil. Would it improve the life of the car if I use those products, or should I stick with dealer products? I'm...

Cool, that's great to hear, since when I put on the blower I actually want less hp than you (500 flywheel is plenty good for me). I'd love to eat up a new shelby, make porsche and ferrari owners regret their gazillion dollar investments, have a nice demonic growl, and stay CA legal. I know...

I've recently put my 05 mustang GT past the 36k mile mark. Now that I'm off warranty, any advice on what kind of oil treatment fluids, fuel cleaners (ie Slick 50), oil filters, oil, etc. are great on our stangs??? Should I just stick with what the local Ford dealer gives me, or is there some...

How do the shortys sound? Do they add anything like a deeper tone or growl compared to stock? I've heard LTs and I know they do. If shortys are safe on a supercharged engine, I'll go with them (CA legal). Thanks for the help. :nice:

smog legal? I think the LTs aren't CA legal. I'm hoping to keep the car CA legal. I may have to go with the shorty's. So, do they increase hp by more backpressure or improved airflow over stock?? B/c if it has better air flow, then perhaps it should be safer or just as safe as running...

I heard them on a stock system (with exception of Flowmaster axlebacks), and they sounded SoooOOO mean! Of course, the guy also took off the cats and that plays a part. It sounded sooo amazing. It was on a mustang GT for the Operation Wheels of Freedom tour. I got to sit in the car when a...

I was told they would be below. But if they're clear, I'll hit the long tubes. If I end up with having to go shorty, I know they'll increase hp from stock, but is that because of backpressure or better free flow of air?? I just don't want the excess power boost to be choked at a shorty header...

Good idea or not? Would the shortys still help over stock headers if the car is supercharged (say to about 460-500 flywheel)? Or would too much back pressure be a problem? I don't want to choke the system. Or is it safer to go supercharger with stock headers? Does a shorty header allow more...

37,900 miles Got the GT back in October 2004 when they first arrived to Cali. Can't keep it in the garage without feeling withdrawals. I reached 36,000 back in Dec of 05 so it barely lasted over a year under warranty. Still running strong and still fun as ever to drive. =) Time to look...

I heard SVT might not still be making them by then. I pray they will though. They need to keep SVT. I also wish they would still make the Ford GT but I also heard 2006 will be the last model year. May SVT live long and prosper! I only wear the cobra for its worthy performance (supercharger...

True, I see your point. However, I figure if the car is going to have a HO supercharger and produce the calibur performance, it would be worthy to wear the cobra. Also, from what I hear, SVT is only making less than 4000 shelby gt500s this year, and they may only make ONE model year of the...

Yeah, I noticed that this emblem doesn't say shelby nor GT500. I wish I had asked the owner of this mustang GT where he/she got it. If anyone knows the owner or if the owner sees this, I'd really appreciate where the emblem was found. I'd hate to sound like a biter, but I'd like to get it...

I know this is more of a tech site, but I see more ppl visit this. If you're the owner of this 2005 mustang or know where to find this emblem, please let me know. I saw this emblem at the recent Knotts Berry Farm show in Anaheim, CA. Thank you so much! I truly appreciate it. Guamie
