    First suspension mod? 06 GT

    The axle hop these cars experience when stock absolutely ruins the fun IMHO. LCAs with stiffer bushings do a pretty good job of mitigating that.

    First suspension mod? 06 GT

    Rear LCAs are a must, decent shocks/struts make a big difference and everything else you listed is nice to have as well. My stance is that the rear sway bar makes a bigger difference than the front. For a primarily street driven car, I like the combination of a 24mm rear bar from a GT500 or...

    Electric cutout before H pipe and performance.

    OP specifically mentioned having the cutouts before (I assume meaning upstream) of the H-pipe. Are we all sure that has no detrimental effects? That would mean all the OEMs have been installing crossovers on their dual exhaust systems for no reason. My understanding is that the crossover...

    FITMENT AND SIZE

    +40 is a hair aggressive on the back for a 10" wide wheel but with a 275, I wouldn't expect any rubbing so long as the axle is close to centered. Up front, it should land somewhere between flush and slightly tucked depending on how much camber you're running. A 275/35-18 is a smaller than stock...

    Traction control constant on

    Wheel speed sensors don't get changed with the GT500 brakes so incompatibility isn't the issue. Doesn't mean they aren't bad but I've never had a failed wheel speed sensor do anything more than trip a light and disable ABS/TC.

    HELP. Flagged by BAR Nazi's.

    Didn't the supercharged 3V Roush cars come with the stock air box?

    Which fuel pump for whipple supercharged 2005 Mustang GT

    The passenger side is indeed stock and there is no pump on that side, just a fuel level sending unit. The pump assembly on the driver side appears to be a no-name parts store special which always brings the possibility the sending unit was faulty from the start. The drop in Walbro 400lph...

    Just purchased 2006 GT with mods questions

    If you can post a picture of the headers, someone may be able to identify them. I don't believe it matters much for tuning purposes though. My tuner never asked what brand mine were, just long tubes: yes or no? You can have it retuned for 87 if you want. It will take a long time to recover the...

    Rack restrictor options for a 08 GT

    Ford makes steering rack limiters. Part number 6R3Z-3932-CA. Someone posted a "how-to" here: https://www.s197forum.com/threads/installation-guide-for-ford-6r3z-3932-ca-steering-rack-restrictor-on-a-2013-installation-guide-for-ford-6r3z-3932-ca-steering-rack-restrictor-2013.154390/

    New to the S197 Community What’s Your Favorite Mod?

    Rear lower control arms. The axle hop these cars suffer from in stock form is atrocious. It's the one mod I wish I had done the day I bought the car. Second would be a combination of poly engine mounts and a decent shifter for manual trans cars because the shift feel in stock form is... you...

    Off road x pipe

    You will get a MIL for catalyst efficiency below threshold. As far as I know, no reputable tuner will supply a tune with the rear O2 sensors turned off anymore so you're stuck with workaround solutions. There is effectively no power to be gained by going catless on these cars so why bother...

    Which of these (modded Bullitt vs GT500)

    The Bullitt is basically just a GT with some OE appearance mods. Any collectability value went out the window when the blower went on and an otherwise identical GT might be worth half of that $33k asking price. They did have 15 extra HP and 3.73s over a base GT which are nice if you're keeping...

    Want to know engine oil temps

    I have one of these in my car. There is no oil temp PID available that I have found. Scangauge only lists oil temp PID for Diesel trucks in the Ford section. I incorrectly stated there isn't a sensor. There is a sensor in the pan on early cars as others have said, but it seems the PCM doesn't...

    Want to know engine oil temps

    There is no oil temp sensor on the '05-'10s so nothing that plugs into the OBD port is going to help. You can remove the OE oil pressure sensor (behind the oil filter), install a 1/4" NPT tee and then run a temp sensor along side it.

    Which of these s650's would you rather

    If someone is offering me one of those two at no cost, I'm taking the DH. However, like several others have expressed, there is zero chance I'm ever buying either with my own money.
