    Louvers

    Dont know if this is Tech material or not, but here it goes. My buddy has a pamphlet from somewhere (I cant remember right now) that has all kinds of available wheels and tires. In that pamphlet there is a pic of a 05 special edition mustang that Boyd Coddington is doing. On that car there...

    Finally raced my cousins Trans Am

    Huh, go figure. I had a 2001 WS6 t/a for about a year and a half. Now I have a 05 GT manual. When I got in the GT and started to drive it, I always kind of felt that it would have hung with the T/A in a race. My buddy had a '97 cobra that I raced a few times pretty even. Then again he...

    Vapor Trap Yes/NO?????

    I yanked mine this weekend. Simple and easy to do. Didn't produce any noticeable differences, but hey at worst it dropped my curb weight by a half a pound. :)

    Pics of modified 05s at Fabulous Fords Weekend

    Yea, I was looking at getting the coddingtons too. They are a sweet wheel. I wanted the ones with the gray painted spokes, cant remember what they were called. Anyhow, once I found out that it was gonna be 2k+ for just the wheels I decided to find something else. Yours look bad azz though chic

    Going full synthetic? huh

    OK rs-turbo, I have almost 2k miles on my 05 and need to change the oil soon. If I want to go to a high quality synthetic like amsoil, do I need to change the oil to the syn. run it for a few hundred miles, then swap it out with fresh to get rid of the factory crud? Would you all...

    How much do you want your payments to be?

    What amazes me about dealerships is when they ask you how much you owe on your trade-in. I always tell them that is none of their business right now and I want to know what THEY will give me for it. For some strange reason, this always, always puzzles them. They say "it doesn't matter to us...

    Payment Help

    The funny thing is that if I had 10K to make a cash transaction with, I'd happily be on all the friggin lists that they want to put me on.

    05 GT or LS1. Which One?

    I had a 02 LS1 t/a (flowmaster cat back and KNN filter) for about a year and now I have a stock 05 GT. There are several differences that I have noticed between the two cars: 1. The LS1 had a better throttle response. When I punched it I couldn't lean forward in the seat until about 3rd...

    Steeda Billet pedals

    Has anyone ordered these and installed on their car. I got them and went to install them and get the feeling that Steeda didn't even check to see if they fit an 05. The curve of the replacement pedal is wrong for one thing. Another thing is that each pedal has holes for 4 screws and you are...

    Shaker A or B

    Ok, I searched but I think that the thread got deleted with the crash. What is the process that you use to see if your Shaker is a A series or B? Also, my car was built in Jan. and I cant remember when the B series head units began to be installed at factory and when they started to install...

    Window Tint?

    I asked my tint shop about that before they put the tint on. He said that he puts the heat gun on the windows after he puts the tint on. He said that this drys it enough to prevent any possible problems from the windows going down a little when opening and closing the door. Been tinted for...

    GT 500 Price From Dealer Connection

    Adamantiunknot, You are comparing a 65 to 75k ZO6 to a 40 to 45k GT500. If you like vettes better man, thats fine. but dont tell me that you can sit straight faced and compare one car to another that costs 50% less. The C6 to GT500 is a much better comparison and for the money I think that...

    2005 Mustang GT DiabloSport CAI Calibrations

    Nick, I know that these cars are all the same, but they are also a little different. When you all form a calibration for a specific type of CAI (eg. steeda or C&L), I am assuming that you make the calibration so that it is safe and effective for all the 05's with that CAI. Correct me if...

    Shelby Hood

    If only it ended at $600. I could definately swing that. My problem is paint and racing stripes. I am sure that paint is gonna cost $500+, then I gotta find someone that will do the same stripes that I already have on my car. That'd be another couple hundred. Tack on shipping and we are...

    Shelby Hood

    I like the shelby hood over the vert hood. It'd be nice if they could build them with the hood retention kit laready in place. Then you could just install the pins on the car when the hood we getting replaced. I'd love to have a hood like that, but there's no way I could swing 2K right now...

    Side Window Louvers?

    I dig the looks of those. Did they come in your paint color or did you have to get them painted? What type of attachment is used?

    2005 Mustang GT DiabloSport CAI Calibrations

    But I wouldn't necessarily have to go and get the car dyno'd correct? As long as the custom tune for the specific type of CAI I purchase works well? Next question. Who makes CAI's that already have a tested and reliable custom tune? I have seen Steeda mentioned. Is there much performance...
