    2010 Auto...no burnout?

    3.31 and 18" on mine. I think the OP is doing something wrong. There is no need to powerbrake to get the tires going....from idle, floor it, when the tires start spinning, back off a little, and give a little steering input to keep it fishtailing. if you lock it in 1st, it will bounce off...

    2010 Auto...no burnout?

    Funny, my 2010, in drive, with just a normal fast push of the trac control button will roast em from an idle, no powerbraking, all the way through first, into second, and then chirp third. no chip, no long button press... I also do quick 180's in front of work to turn the car around on a...

    Dealer ripping me off on 10' trade in FOR 11' stang!

    Put it on AutoTrader, and CL. fixed amount of money on AT, free on CL. Worst thing that can happen, nothing. Best case, you sell it for 27k, and drive off in your new stang. Whaddya got to lose, other than like $30 bucks?

    2010/2011, better handling?

    My 2010 handles great, for a mustang. I have driven numerous s2000's, while I do not like them, they handle much better than a stang.

    Good harmonic balancer?

    I ran a FD on a high milage 5.0 years ago. I had about 175k, and mad vibration between 1100-1600 rpm. I put the FD on at the same time as H/C/I. engine idles smooth as hell, even with the increased lope of the cam. that sold me. I have read dozens of negative posts about how they actually...

    Maximum Motorsports Caster/Camber Plates

    Camber plates will not alter the ride height on these cars, not 1mm. The spring rides on the LCA and the K memberm there is no way for struts to affect the height, it is your imagination. You want as much wheel travel as possible, without the strut contacting the hood. I cannot tell you...

    Steering rack with or without offset bushings....

    15:1 2.5 turns lock to lock, fwiw. Never use offset rack bushings on a stock K-member. Never Steering Rack Bushing Tech : Maximum Motorsports, the Latemodel Mustang Performance Suspension Leader!

    AR3Z16612B That is the part number for the oem hood for the V6 and the GT. So, yes, the hood is the same between 6 banger and GT.

    2010 GT- New and improved version

    Wish I could afford to add a supercharger or something...My other hobbies (and other stangs) eat too much money. For now she stays stock. Fact is, a stock '10 gt, even with an auto is quicker than most anyhting I run into on the road. I dont street race, so I only need the power to pass...

    PYPES or Magnaflow?

    I like the mid muffler, but in my experience (yes, actual experience) and a co worker with an 07, the mid muffler is not a bolt on kit, no matter what the manufacturer says. best to leave it to a muffler shop. my install was $150, that required alot of cutting, and fabbing of hangers to make it...

    2010 GT- New and improved version

    That area just does not lend itself to a pony... I kept it, cuz I am not trying to pass it off as a 500 or anything, it still says gt on the fenders and deck lid...although, I did buy a shelby deck lid spoiler, it just did not come in while I was painting it. I have painted it blue, but now I...

    2010 GT- New and improved version

    Well, a Deer decided to commit suicide while I was driving by @ 60 plus. Did about $7500 in damage to the front of my stang. I thought since I was spending so much on parts, why not put the Shelby parts on the front end? It cost about a grand more than the stock GT parts. Anyway, then I...
