    Base GT Radio Upgrade, Options and Opinions...

    Components and other pics are below. The link is to over 100 pictures of the entire process if you're bored. Taking the car apart wasn't difficult, but it wasn't fun. Index of /images/2017_04_mustang_stereo_upgrade

    Base GT Radio Upgrade, Options and Opinions...

    I typed up a big write up on my 2015 GT base upgrade, but the page backed up and lost it while trying to insert a link. Here's the less detailed short description. I intercepted the radio outputs behind the radio, installed quick connects, wired an alpine brick amp in, upgraded the 6.5"...

    Random misfire and Misfire cylinder 8

    My 2015 base GT Mustang with about 50k miles has had the P0300 code at least once a week for the last month. I assume putting a Roush/Ford blower on it would take car of the problem if it's the IMRC? :D

    My 670 kit dyno today

    Makes me want to spend some money. Congratulations. It's been 12 years since I last drove my 03 Cobra, so I think it's about time for another 500+HP car in the garage.

    Motorcraft TPMS19 Transmitter?

    On my 2015 jeep wrangler the TPMS sensor in the wheel does not transmit until the wheel rolls down the road (centrifugal force). If you change the wheels out on a wrangler, the computer just learns the new sensors and their location--no prgoramming needed. I'm not sure if it figures out the...

    Worth upgrading to the S550 from a S197?

    I shopped for 2013 and 2014 mustangs, and my wife sat in a 2016 at a dealer while we were waiting. She said get a 2015+ just for the interior upgrades. I didn't argue and got my 2015 base GT. It's very easy to drive.

    Motorcraft TPMS19 Transmitter?

    I have a base 2015 GT mustang, and I don't have to use the tool to rotate my tires. Are the newer cars different? I bought the tPMS tool for the day that I change the wheels and sensors for track trips. I haven't used it yet, though.

    New VMP TVS owner

    Is your car auto or manual? I need to spend some more time reading the forums. Old age, work, and kids make it difficult. :D

    New VMP TVS owner

    Thanks for following up. I owned an 03 Cobra over 10 years ago, and the ported eaton and 491rwhp was as far as I ever got. I now have a 2015 GT that I'd like to put a positive displacement blower on. They are great daily drivers with the torque.

    Question for former Terminator owners.

    The above discussion is why I want a twin screw blower on my 2015 GT. It's a great car for trips and fun in its own way, but it's not as exciting as my 2003 Cobra with an upper, port, intake, and exhaust. I don't particularly care for push button start or the crappy base GT stereo that's damn...

    Has anyone noticed significant clutch shudder on light engagement from a stop?

    I don't particularly care for the pedal and lack of feel in my 2015. There is no feedback, and I often am afraid I'm burning it up as I slip it and try to get going. If I try to slip it any quicker I can actually stall the car. I kind of miss the heavy ass cable clutch from my 03 Cobra.

    Has anyone installed a DASHCAM yet?

    I installed a Viofo A119 in my S550 and my Jeep Wrangler after a lady tried to sideswap me on the interstate for blowing my horn at her. She was repeatedly sleeping at lights (on her phone). After about three lights doing this I honked once to wake her up. She was livid. Once we got on the...

    2015 GT with straight pipes instead of resonator

    I bought a 27,000 mile used 2015 GT mustang Saturday, and the only modifications I can find are the straight pipes that replaced the resonator and possibly welded in louder mufflers. Does anyone have any experience with straight pipes versus the typical H and X pipes and how it might affect...

    WTB: 03/04 Cobra broken half inner CV

    A friend is in need of the inner stub and tripod off of 03/04 Cobra half shafts. He is building a custom rear end for his car using a 31 spline 8.8 IRS diff. He has the custom center bar and outer CVs, so he only needs the inner. If you have some spare parts around or a broken half-shaft that...
