FWIW I have 17 GT350 as well. I bought used. It's at 12500 miles. I am not seeing oil consumption issues. I think the combination of hard plated cylinders (no sleeves) with forged pistons, and unknowing dealers/buyers not following the break in procedure, and/or not letting the engine warm up...

I think if you want the tin can raspy sound with a 3v you are going to deal with some trumpeting using an offroad H/X pipe. I got rid of it by switching to Borla, but they are not raspy like my Pypes Violators were.

SOLD

Generally no. Even if the car is actually fine, it is branded and title or at a minimum the car fax will show and the the resale for you will be tough down the road. I had a used dealer try to sell me one at retail, and the paperwork said paint defects, I dont know why Ford wouldn't just...

Well, opinion is yes. I guess you could experiment how well the knock sensors work, or how well the engine runs with 0 degrees of timing.

Probably goes without saying, but make sure you clean out the manifold and intercooler really well, I was surprised how much metal debris there was in there.

There probably are companies that will do a whipple. I trashed a TVS due to overheat/warped case, I found a couple companies that would do it, but like you said the cost was 80-90% of a new unit, so I went that route. At least for a little while I was able to clean up the case and the rotors...

Not sure, but there is a noticeable increase in NVH, so probably the street and strip ones. http://m.uprproducts.com/mustang-urethane-motor-mount-kit-pro-series-street-strip-05.html

Generally, and depending on your financial situation, sell the 3v, buy a S550. The DOB kit, 3.73s and good tires were the best mods I did. Building a forged short block, cranking up the boost, also fun, but not proportionally to the cost. As the price of used S550s go down my supercharger and...

Maybe your springs settled a bit. Air pressure low in one or more tires. My driveway is pretty level but not perfect and I can tell a difference between my driveway and my garage.

I have ran 4.10, 3.73, and 3.55 with my supercharged 3v tr3650. I really liked 3.73 at the 475 rwhp level. 3.55s now with 600+ rwhp. If you think the 4.10 are way too much then do 3.55, if you think 4.10 are just a little to much then you will be happier with 3.73.

Is the panhard brace really even needed? For normal street duty?

What I've learned over 20 years is you cant expect aftermarket bolt ons to just bolt on with no trouble. Especially the cheap stuff from China. I had pypes violators for a bit and one of the tips was noticeably out of whack.
