    14 GT500 - What to do?

    if you don't plan on getting real tires, there's no point in getting mods. I tried to stick with "good" tires with some basic bolt ons and it was like trying to drive the car on ice. Mickey Thompson ET Street R's @ 305/45/18 now and she finally sticks. it's like a different car.

    What motivated you to get a 13/14?

    i'm probably an outlier tbh- i actually never really loved the look of the S197's it was more of a slow burn for me- i had an 03 sonic blue terminator making 500 wheel and she was great- but after selling it I really missed having a fast car. i took another look at all muscle cars and couldn't...

    grinding sound when turning at speed

    yeah they're kooks (ceramic coated 1 & 7/8") they just sometimes come without being a perfect fitment- and mine were unfortunately one of them that don't fit just right and it was slightly touching/rubbing the steering shaft. every other area has (slight) clearance.

    grinding sound when turning at speed

    Turns out it's my steering shaft rubbing on the headers since they're not in perfect spec. smdh getting a thinner steering shaft at this point since it's a lot simpler than taking the headers off and sending back to kooks.

    Kooks vs LTH headers

    when did you install them? recently? i think covid changed a lot in regards to supply and they make to order now which is probably why they have more fitment issues now than before (and massive lead-times- I waited about 8 weeks for mine) I'm not saying everyone has issues- but I know for a...

    Kooks vs LTH headers

    I will say as a heads up with Kooks long tubes- their fitment is shit. they're way too tight and I'm currently dealing with now having to replace my steering shaft with a thiner one cause its touching. Be prepared for the possibility of a bad fit.

    grinding sound when turning at speed

    Hey guys car has 12k miles and long tubes and McCloud 1200 clutch were just installed. I noticed the car now makes a grinding sound and you can feel it through the wheel whenever you turn hard at higher speeds. i looked all around and don't see any visible rubbing anywhere. I also just...

    New 2014 GT500 owner looking for advice on bolt on mods.

    (mustang dyno) basically full bolt ons- key is in the tune 100%. I'm pretty much maxed on fuel but the potential of these cars is pretty amazing. i'll probably end up grabbing a boost-a-pump and some ID1050 injectors and just be done with the car. all mods in sig

    2013-2014 availability and values

    id take that bet. also the 11.5 wasn't so much the Zzzz. the 118 MPH is the Zzzz. Hell the new base model mustang GT (ICE) traps 120. EVs are quick, not fast- and there's a big difference between the two. I will say, the only thing more sad about your misconception about the speed of the...

    91 octane in cali

    I wouldn't think any mods are worth it in Cali. NY isn't much better but I've just read horror stories of Cali police ticketing for even different intakes. RPM act needs to happen like yesterday

    There's always dodge snorting a line of coke off a stripper waiting to take our money when the times right. on a serious note, it doesn't bother me. the pendulum always swings and we have/had some pretty amazing pony car wars recently. consider us lucky to have capitalized on it. all of these...
