    First time to track in an 11 gt....blah

    I wish I could get a DA of 3k ft... Colorado is terrible (DA=6k~9k ft). Anyway, Great Times! and I could use a good set of drag radials as well. Make sure to post if you get a set :nice:

    Painted 5.0L Coil Covers

    The paint was just rustoleum Ford Blue high heat engine enamel, so nothing too special, just the good 'ole rattle can. I did use a primer with it thats specifically for plastics, but I don't remember the brand. I think the finish came out the way it did b/c of the plastic itself, not sure tho...

    2012 GT EXHAUST help!!

    All the '11 bolt-ons should fit the '12.. Nothing changed to my knowledge. Here's a good (recent) thread to check out: http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/836401-im-looking-deep-loud-exhaust-need-some-help.html There's a lot of videos and opinions on the various exhausts out for the '11-'12...

    I'm Looking For a Deep Loud Exhaust..Need Some Help!!

    Yes, the magnaflow comp axle backs are louder. I think that those are just straight pipes, which work well with the stock exhaust, but won't be very good building up a complete exhaust over time. Just my $0.02 On another note, here's a vid of my car w/ the Bassani Race Axle-Backs... YouTube...

    I'm Looking For a Deep Loud Exhaust..Need Some Help!!

    I forgot something lol The Bassani's are extremely smooth right after install, and open up like described above. Right now, I'd say its moderately raspy, but not too much for a muscle car. I'd post vids of the two, but the sound quality of the one's I have sucks. I'll try to take some better...

    I'm Looking For a Deep Loud Exhaust..Need Some Help!!

    Bassani vs. Magnaflow I've got the Bassani race axle-back, and my good friend has the magnaflow comp cat-back. He also has ARH long tubes (1-7/8 primaries) w/ o/r x-pipe. In comparison, the Bassani is much deeper, but took ~1000 miles for them to really open up. They were pretty quiet right...

    Beautiful color combo! :nice: A couple Q's.. Brembo package? if so, I suspect no fitment problem w/ the 20's right? Also, what lowering springs/kit? I have Eibach Sportlines & want to compare.. Anyway, Great look!

    2011/ 2012 Gt 1/4 times for autos? basic mods

    I guesstimate low 12's with a 1.8-2.0 sec 60 ft times. You might get better 60 ft times w/ the auto..

    new technology questions

    I drive a 2011 w/ the brembo package, and thus far, I've rotated my tires, and even dropped the rear tires to 24 psi the last time i went to the strip, and I have ever had the TPMS go off. No chime, no idiot light, nothing.I don't know if thats a brembo package thing, or I just got extremely...

    2011 GT lowering springs

    I just installed the Eibach Sportline lowering springs (1.3" front/2" rear) this past weekend without new struts/dampers. Eibach claims that they are not required for lowering, and I haven't had any trouble what so ever.

    2011 Starting problem sometimes

    I have the same problem on my 2011 GT, but its only when I turn the key to the start position and release it back to the run position before the car is actually started. The engine takes a bit longer to start, but it has actually started the three or so time it has happened. Now, I just make...

    ARH Long Tube Header Kit for 5.0

    I haven't seen these on the forum yet, so I thought I'd share: 2011 5.0L MUSTANG +16 RWTQ and +32 RWHP over stock headers with out a tune, and I love how the Torque and HP curves are both higher and wider, especially at lower RPM's. The setup is high dollar, but this is one more thing to...

    2011 GT Shifting Issue

    I don't want to start a rant about how the 2011's have issues like some others have, but I'm just looking for anyone else who is having the same issue. What I have: 2011 GT spec301A Manual Trans 3.55's Brembo's The Issue: When shifting from 1st to 2nd (at any RPM) there seems to be...

    Polysteel protection package

    I got the dealer installed "Protection Plan" on my 2011 GT. It came out to be ~$10/month extra and comes with undercoating, paint protection, and upholstery stain proofing. There is a 5yr/unlimited miles warranty on everything. I'm in Colorado, so just the rustproof undercoating is worth it for...

    Bought a New Challenger - Sorry Ford, Rant Included

    I don't feel like I got the same treatment that you did, Steedaq, when I bought my '11 GT. I actually feel like the salesman that I dealt with fought for the sale. I did the majority of the buying over the phone as I am away at school and wanted to buy from my hometown dealership. After letting...

    ProCharger supercharges the 2011 Ford Mustang GT 5.0

    That brings up another question.. Is Shelby upgrading the rods in the GT350? They claim to be adding 100hp w/ the Whipple supercharger but they don't mention anything about the rods either. I'm interested in finding out if all of these supercharger companies will have problems with the stock...

    ProCharger supercharges the 2011 Ford Mustang GT 5.0

    I'm surprised that ProCharger doesn't mention anything about the connecting rod issue. That seems like a big topic w/ adding boost to the 5.0. i like the sound of 510rwhp, but not at the cost of my rotating assembly.

    She's Here

    After 10 weeks, my spankin' new Mustang finally arrived. It rolled off the truck this morning. I just have to sign some papers and she's all mine. Does anyone know of any good wheels that fit over the brembo's? I want to get a little wider rear wheel/tire but theres not much on the market...
