    Torch Red to add stripes- thoughts?

    Hey all, Wanting to add a lil outside *zest* to my ‘05 torch red GT, and I’ve been thinking more and more about adding the classic double white stripes to the car. Classy upgrade, or maybe not?

    Exhaust: Components & such

    Seller hacked off the tail pipes before the rear end. So I’ll either weld it (id love to not do that) or try to flare the ends of another tail-pipe system that bolts up and flanges to the mid-pipe. I’m currently running the stock set-up with tail pipes coming from the mid section & bending up...

    Exhaust: Components & such

    An exhaust question for y’all: Got an opportunity to pick up a Dynatech exhaust system- sounds awesome & cant wait to install. But there’s an issue: The components I’m getting are the headers & the mid pipe (x-pipe). They don’t include the last pipes that run from the mid-pipe to the rear end...

    Coil Springs & Struts

    I plan on hopefully taking the strut assemblies off & having the coils installed separately haha! But it sounds like you agree- if I get the original coil springs in, that should get the ride height back to factory? It looks like there should be a gap between the top of the tire & bottom of...

    Coil Springs & Struts

    Looking for expert advice: Bought my ‘05 GT used, and it came with coil springs that appear lower than a stock GT (it has been lowered, & the springs are blue if that helps hah). I’ve been told that putting back the factory coil springs will raise the ride height to where I’d like it, and it...

    Traction Control + Engine Failsafe?

    It’s slick out here in Mid-MO... Driving on the highway, it seemed like I hit some slick spots & felt traction control engage- similar to when I’ve hit water & lost traction, then immediately got it back. After some time, I get the pop-up “Engine Failsafe Mode”, & all gages are fine, but I...

    Injector Size & Horsepower

    Working on some calculations, & not getting anywhere... please send help.. The stock injector size for my '05 S-197 GT (w/ 4.6L V8) is listed as 24 Lb/Hr- Assuming this refers to the amount of fuel the injectors can put out (max) at the 85% duty cycle. Given that the engine burns a certain...

    To Tune, or not to tune?

    Please let me know if this belongs in another forum... ‘05 S-197 GT (4.6L v8) - my first Mustang & love every part of it! I want to start tinkering with the engine, but I get different answers from folks on whether the changes I’m after will require a tune or not... The car is bone stock - ran...

    Calculations on Power

    I figured before I had this stuff in class, I would share it to get some feedback. I'm working through the equations & problems to include in some physics lectures, & figured why not share some basic calculations to see if they were done correctly & what you think. These are pretty...

    Cam Phasers- info & tips?

    My first post- let's see how it goes.. Looking for some advice cam phasers in my '05 S-197 GT- seems like I get a cel every 1,000 miles or so- DTC says it's the cam position sensor circuit fault. The first time, I replaced one sensor, and the code went away. When the code came up again, I got...
