    Electrical Anyone seen electrical issues like this? Throttle cut out was first symptom..

    First noticed my throttle cutting out at any speed. Even WOT when held for 1-2 seconds, drops back to barely above idle. Video is me locking it into 5th gear so I didn't go too fast. Then I noticed the speed control would turn on, but I could not set it. Then I got a random message about the...

    2015 GT Stock Front Camber Adjustment Possible?

    From what I could find looking around, the camber isn't adjustable because of the MacPherson strut? Is this true? My tires are wearing bad on the inside, especially the driver side. Any help would be much appreciated!

    Good Experience With My Local Ford Service Department.

    The A/C went out the other day; only 4k miles left on warranty, thankfully! Apparently this is common issue with 15 and newer Mustangs? Evaporator fails and needs replacing, be warned! Left it there a week to get it fixed; got a free rental of course. They also fixed my pony projection lights...

    Snell Approved Racing Helmet

    I want to take my '15 to the local track, and almost did last weekend till I checked the rules. 13.99 and faster requires a Snell approved helmet. There a good place to get these other than say Amazon or eBay? Most of them show up as motorcycle helmets too. Is there a specific terminology I can...

    RANT!!! Faster Than A Stock 5.0! :0

    I don't know how legit this is, but if it is, i'm impressed. It makes me want to see the same kind of tune on a Taurus SHO since i imagine they have the same 3.5 twin turbo. Must be pushing 500hp to push 4800lbs down the track that fast... SHO's are around 4300. :)

    Battery Voltage Seems Low To Me...

    My GT usually reports the battery voltage around 11.7-11.9 when the car is off. I've always expected a new, fully charged battery, to report closer to 12.5 or more when it's fully charged. Had Ford check it out to be sure, because my 05's battery died on me within the first year. They said it's...

    Fuel Economy/track Apps

    So, from spring break and then this past week, I've had A LOT of highway miles racked up on my just broken in Mustang. I've been very impressed with the MPGs I've been getting, and even got to do some 1/4 mile runs on these highways as they were out in the middle of nowhere. I'm very happy with...

    Axle Back Exhaust

    Since I'm going to be forced into buying a new GT here soon due to my '13 being totaled by a tard, I wanted to see if there were some Borla S-Types for the '15s, and can't find them yet. I really liked them on my '13 because they were quiet at idle and highway speeds, with no drone and they were...

    Well, Had Nice Wreck Yesterday...

    Guy tried to turn and across 3 lanes with oncoming traffic. Claimed his "brakes locked up." But I sure wouldn't turn into traffic if my brakes didn't work. I'd just bounce around in the median. Glad for a "Built Ford Tough" Mustang though. I just hope I can get a replacement car that I want as...

    Sct Tune Question

    So I asked a question to the SCT's customer support after reading their tune could give a 28hp & 34tq boost. I asked, quote "Are these numbers accurate for a stock mustang? As in, if i were running premium fuel, hitting the 420\390 stock numbers, i can hit 448\424? If not, what is the top...

    Exhaust Recommended Exhausts

    I finally get to move out of the V6 section as I recently purchased a new 5.0. :) I was hoping to find a thread with some people giving reviews or opinions on exhaust setups, but haven't found one yet. So feel free to post links to one if I am mistaken. I'm looking for an axle back system to...

    Rpm Drop, Engine Shutter

    Just recently, within the past few thousand miles (104k on the car), when I go to park after a drive, the RPM's will drop after engaging park and the engine will shutter. This causes a nice shake throughout the whole car but I can't make it repeat by putting it into drive and then back into park...

    GoPro Camera

    What's funny is I came in here to post this and saw the advertisement for it up top, lol. But anyways, a friend let me borrow it for a day or two to tinker with, so here's kind of a pointless video with the footage. Hoping to get some neat outside footage from the track with it someday. This...

    Took the Stang to the track finally.

    On our way home from vacation up north, stopped at Atlanta Dragway for some fun. This is my best run, vs another V6 Mustang (white, 5-speed). He was bone stock from what I could see. Mines an auto, running regular 87 octane, and just the loud dual exhaust as far as mods go. My reaction time...

    V6 & Synthetic Oil Mileage Question

    I've been doing mine every 5k miles but was wondering if i should stretch it out to 7500 or even 10k. I do about 40miles a day to/from work, 75%/25% highway/city. I use Mobil 1 Synthetic. What do you guys do/use with your 6ers?

    2011 V6 Engine

    Sure some of you have heard by now of the new V6 they're gonna put in the 2011 Mustang. I've always been telling myself that I HAVE to get a GT once in my life because I'm tired of having the "low end" model and I want to own a V8 for once in a sports car. However, this new engine is making me...

    SLP Loudmouths vs. Nothing at all!

    Here's a quick "informational" video I made of my Mustang to show you the similarities and difference of SLP Loudmouths vs. no Mufflers at all. YouTube - SLP Loudmouths vs. Nothing at all! Wish I would have recorded the Dual GT mufflers before I ripped them off. Could have thrown that in...
