    O2 Sensor Failed (again)

    I'm hoping to get some insight as to why I may be experiencing o2 sensor failure. About a month ago (8,200 miles), I had the #2 fail. I know these cars don't have gas caps, but it failed right after getting gas which I chalked up to a coincidence. Ford replaced the sensor of course, and...

    Tips for Winter Storage?

    I'm wandering what the best practices are for winter storage. I live in Iowa where it can get quite cold, causing my garage temp to hit high 30's. I will drive the car in cold weather (carefully) provided no salt is present on the roads. My plan is to park on pieces of carpet to prevent...

    2011-2012 Corsa Axle Back For Sale

    Price Reduced! I had these on my 2011 GT500 for maybe 500 miles. I didn't like the sound once I added O/R Pipe, so I'm selling these for $400 shipped vs. $800 shipped new. No flaws at all, tips are perfect.

    Torco

    Please help with a few questions about Torco use: 1.) I live where 91 is standard Premium, and I can only get 93 with Ethanol. I have a 91 tune, but still think I should protect myself by adding a bit of Torco to each tank...my question is can this hurt my car to run Torco in every tank of...

    Advance Trac vs. Performance Tune...

    I recently purchased the Lethal Performance Boost Upgrade Kit for my 2011, which came with Lund tune. I could use some help understanding why I should run the car with traction control fully off (hold brake and button for about 5 seconds) at all times. The only other mods I have are dual heat...

    Need Help on Exhaust

    I recently completed my exhaust set-up, which I'm not happy with. I started with Corsa axle-back, which was fine except for how quiet it is. I then added MBRP catted H-pipe, as many people said don't match an X-Pipe with Corsa. The H-Pipe sounds good until I hit 4 grand...then it sounds...

    Need Help Re: Upper Pulley Swap

    HI All...TGIF! The shop doing the upper pulley swap on my car mentioned they weren't 100% sure of the position of the tensioner to prevent belt slip. He said we may have to drive the car and then adjust down if belt slips. Is this normal, or is there an easy way to determine if this is the...

    Need Help Re: Heat Exchanger Install

    Hi All, I'm having my local shop install the AFCO Dual 10" heat exchanger. Is there any advice you'd share based on your experience having this done on 2011 Shelby. Does the bumper come off easy? Any lessons learned that you can share? Thanks, Chris

    Corsa Axle-Backs Installed

    I just had some Corsa axle-backs installed on my 2011 GT500. I love the improved appearance, I can actually feel an improved throttle response, and they have zero drone. They are quiet (maybe even quieter than stock), but they are starting to wake up a bit as they break in. This is the sound...

    First ride in the Shelby for my kids...

    One of the main reasons I bought a GT500 is because it had a backseat. I have twin 4 year old girls, and I want to enjoy the car with them. I strapped them in and took them for a ride yesterday. It was hilarious, because they were giggling to each other before I even hit the gas, and then...
