I just wanted to see if anyone had any appraisals at potential trade in value? I have gotten 35k-38k at dealerships 39k at car max. I thought this was a tad low. 2013 GT500 black/black clean vin loaded minus glass roof. 38,500 miles Thoughts?

Not sure if anyone ever records this number. I was seeing what numbers some of the members have logged and modifications they made. Thanks

I just wanted to see what influences dyno numbers? Best numbers: 689 hp/ 696 tq mileage 13k miles; mods vmp tb, off road x, pulley 20k miles on 666 hp/ 695 tq only change JLT 123 35k miles, went to the dyno to get a race tune. Did a base hit 626 hp 630 tq. Trying to figure out what's...

I have been back and forth on going e85 or maybe get a race tune for special occasions. Seems like a great way to add some big hp without the upfront costs of ethanol. VP racing has a station not far away they carry: C16,C12,110,C9,MS103, and I heard they have cans of ms109. I am so...

How much additional power is a e85 conversion good for with the following mods: VMP 67, upper pulley, off road x pipe, JLT 123. thanks

When it comes to CAI what is most important: volume of air or the cold air? the JLT 123 theoretically lets far more air into the engine over the carbon fiber tube. However, according to the intake temp gauge it runs 30 degrees warmer over the ambient temperature. The carbon fiber (no tune)...

Question 1: how important is ambient air temp in the factory gauge? (IAT1) I have a carbon fiber tube and a 123mm. The carbon fiber would always run the same temperature as it is outside while in motion. The 123mm runs 10-20 degrees higher if not more. Flow vs cooler air what wins? Question 2...

Hello all, I have a 2013 GT500, 33.5k on it with the basic bolt ons. I heard a strange noise coming from the rear end. Brought it in to the Ford dealership and it was diagnosed as a bad rear differential. They tell me the part is on back ordered and no eta. My question to the forum is...

I wanted to see what the majority of you are running when the weather is ideal? The question pertains to the traction control and stability control modes NOT suspension or steering modes. I put the car into sport mode "two taps". Just curious. On another note: I attended a stunt car school...

I just wanted to see if there is quantitative results. I was looking at the BPS. I have a vmp 67 mm, 2.4, o/r x. I want to ask the forum about adding that and that only that. Any dyno numbers? Is the mod a night and day difference? I presently have no desire to buy a larger tb. Thanks.

Can you use a airaid filter to replace a jlt big air filter? I like the blue color of the airaid. I noticed the airaid doesn't have a screen like the stock and the jlt has. Is this a issue or not? Thanks

Guys, I am having thoughts of bringing my exhaust totally back to stock. Including the stock catalytic converter. I have a off-road x pipe and a stainless works performance connect exhaust right now. Upfront, I have a vmp tb and a 2.4. I was told that a off-road pipe was necessary for the...

The car: 2013 GT500 approx 5,000 miles when I first modified on it. Mods: upper pulley, off road x, vmp 67 tb, air tube (not big air) Result: Hot summer day on the dyno 689 hp / 696 tq. Car now has 23,000 miles Updated mods: JLT 123 mm , new tune Result: cool October day 669 hp...

Just wanted to throw this out there. When going above 120 I hear a howl coming from the front right side of the car. I think it might be the tire but I am not sure. It appears to have some life still on it.(gy) Have any of you experienced this? Any other causes I should explore? Thanks

It's about that time to replace my front tires on stock pp rims. I see a ton of tire threads on here but most are catered for rear tires. Which ones are you running and at what size? I was thinking 275/40/19 mpss. However I see Hankook and others have tires the same size and spec for way...
