    MT-82 second gear trouble

    I've used the search feature and have read until I'm cross-eyed but can't find an issue like mine. I have a '13 GT with bolt-ons, last night went to race a 5th Gen Camaro and went into second gear and it banged real loud. It will not go into second gear at all, it just grinds no matter what I...

    Opinions on wheel color..........

    I've got a black '13 GT that's lowered on factory premium 5 spoke silver 19" wheels. After three years I'm ready for a change, I've always liked the contrast of dark colored wheels on a light car and light colored wheels on a dark car........but I'm itching to change. I've narrowed things down...

    Neat video of my son making a 219mph motorcycle pass.....

    Bullets for resonators Part II......

    About a year ago I installed JPC OTA pipes & due to the raspy sound I added a set of 3" Dynomax bullets that have a 6" long body. It did help a little but I'm ready to quiet the car and/or rasp down more. Trying to find out what is the longest set of bullets you folks have installed and did it...

    Side scoop removal.

    After two years of owning the GT I'm wanting to change things up some. I recently swapped my pedestal spoiler for a GT500 and like the look, now I'm thinking wheels and removing the OEM side scoops. I removed the OEM window louvers shortly after getting the car so it was easy but I'm wondering...

    WTT 2013 GT black lid w/oem pedestal spoiler......

    For a plain trunk lid or one with base spoiler. I know it's a long shot but thought I'd try. I have a perfect pair, would like to install a GT500 spoiler so mine won't work. I live outside of Knoxville, TN. Would also buy a lid outright. Thanks, Dan

    Question regarding bullets for resonators.....

    I've read all the post I could find but still am a little confused. Wanting to have a decent flowing exhaust while keeping cats I installed Kooks shorties, Steeda X-pipe with Kooks hi-flow cats, OTA JCP 2.75" pipes and GT 500's. Performance is good but it has a raspy, hollow sound. I know the X...

    Question for the blower folks......

    The GT is the wife's car and drives it almost daily, no commuting but mostly around town. Of course I'm wanting more power when I drive it but just for playing on the street, I have a street/strip car so the Mustang won't see the track. I'm wanting to install a supercharger but the car needs...

    I've got a '13 GT with the OEM pedestal spoiler and have found a '14 6cyl. convertible with the standard spoiler and we are wanting to exchange deck lids. I'm wanting to install a GT500 spoiler ASAP. The faux gas caps are different, his saying convertible. We're hoping to swap them tomorrow...

    Who has been in the 11's ?

    With bolt-ons and real street radials, no dr's. Just wondering as I'd like to do it. What parts and tires were used? Thanks, Dan

    Best 250 bucks I've spent!!

    Been doing bolt-ons over the last few months as time and funds allowed. Pretty much finished installing the normal parts and was pleased with the cars performance and drivability then I kept reading all the great things about Shaun at AED. I contacted him and just now came in from driving...

    Ceramic coating stainless shorties...

    I just received my new Kooks shorties and I'm trying to decide if it would be worth ceramic coating them. Have any of you folks coated yours? I've had a set of coated Hookers (mild steel) headers on my BB Malibu for 17 years and they still look good but didn't know if coating stainless is good...

    Getting an aluminum ds, one more question.

    I've read where some folks use adj. uca's and some don't when installing an alum ds. Is this due to stock height vs. lowered cars or the design of the different shafts available? Could use some help from guys that have installed an alum ds on what is needed besides the shaft, like are the...

    Restriction in OEM pipes...

    I have a 2013 GT with a Steeda X-pipe & hi-flow cats and GT500 mufflers. After looking at the resonators and the crimping of the pipes over the axles I was wondering how much it chokes the exhaust down? I was thinking of selling my axle backs and buying a new catback system but was wondering...

    Where to spend less than 1,000 bucks.....

    Trying to decide between an aluminum driveshaft, a set of Kooks shorties or a good catback system that's not too loud. I've installed a Boss I/M, 85mm TB, C&L CAI, Steeda x-pipe with hi flow cats (hafta keep the cats) and GT500 mufflers. Wanting to wake the car up a little more, I've already...

    Question about Kooks shorties....

    Our car is the wife's daily driver but I like beating on it from time to time. After installing a Steeda x-pipe w/ hi-flow cats and using OEM mufflers the sound didn't change much so I put on a set of GT500's and bingo....perfect. She is fine with the sound/volume as is but I'm wanting to get a...

    First time on the strip....

    Ran the Mustang last evening at our local 1/8th mile track. I run my bike and big block Malibu (auto) when I can but haven't made a pass with a straight shift in 40 years. Stock Pirelli M&S all-seasons but the track is prepped pretty good, especially for the DR and slick guys. Best out of...

    Changing tunes.....

    Couldn't find what I was needing to know by searching. I've got an upcoming dyno session and was wanting to try all three maps and was wondering if by downloading them back to back to back was worth it? I didn't know if I'd get an accurate performance with the car not having time to relearn...

    Trunk lid struts the same?

    I've got a '13 GT with the oem CS spoiler and am wanting the GT500 style. I found a trunk lid from a 2014 that is spoiler delete and wondering if the factory struts are the same as far as strength. If mine are stronger due to the weight and I let them go so they'll work on his car then I'll...

    Quick datalog question.....

    Of course being a week-end I have a tuning question and the shop is closed. I'm gonna datalog tomorrow (Sunday) and per the instructions it says 2 or 3 WOT pulls. Is there a certain gear that is best like second or third and what rpm range, from where to where? I'm hoping they don't mean all...

    Power difference between gasoline & ethanol...

    Curious if anyone has done any back to back testing on a dyno and can show the difference (if any) between 100% gas and 10% ethanol? I know on the EPA's website a while back it stated a 6% reduction in fuel mileage so I was wondering if there is a difference in power. I know the benefit of...

    '13 GT factory shifter issue........

    I finished my bolt-ons recently and ran a buddy today in his LS1 Camaro with cam & bolt-ons. he has LT's & I don't. With his 4.56 gear vs. my 3.31 (have 3.73's in the garage but wanted to run him before and after installation) he could pull me initially by a car and it would stay that way from...

    Dyno questions...

    I went last week for a baseline dyno session. The shop builds & tunes alot of FI engines, I'm gonna stay n/a. He let the engine cool down about 20 minutes between pulls with a large fan running into the grill. In four pulls the largest difference in hp between pulls was 5hp and it was with...

    Dyno questions......

    Well I've got my 1,000 miles on my '13 GT and headed to the dyno on Sunday to get some baseline pulls while 100% stock. I'm wondering with my top speed limiter still in place will he be able to make a full pull in 5th with my 3.31's or will he need to go to 4th? Do the dyno numbers vary...
