What have you done to your mustang today?

[crjackson]

Installed Dynamat Xtreme sound deadner

Is this the “top-of-the-line” sound deadner?

For Dynamat..........yes.

Cleaned the throttle body. Didn't have any issues just wanted to do it as I had never been in there. What I discovered is a little build up but more importantly I saw no oily residue from the driver side PCV inside the manifold. It looked completely dry. Finding that killed my intent to get a catch can for the PCV.

Started pricing and researching clutches for my '13.
At almost 60k miles, boosted for about 8-9 years now, it's still on the original clutch but I'm getting a weird squeaking when engaging first gear and at a couple other movements, I think the clutch may finally be on its way out.
Due to the issues we have with the RXT in my wife's GT500, I want to stay away from a McLeod product.
Looking at Exedy and a couple other choices.

I hear great things about the Exedy twin.

it's still on the original clutch

If you got 9 years on the original, why not replace it with an OEM? Seems like it’s done an excellent job, and lasted a long time. It’s hard to beat an OEM on a daily driver.

That's interesting. What issues are you having?
I've had the McLeod RXT for 8+ years and, apart from an irritating rattle from the unsprung hub at 1500rpm under load (most pronounced in 4th gear), it's been flawless.

Definitely one of the options I'm looking into.

Thought about it, but want something I can be harder on and not be afraid of breaking it.
The stock clutch has given me some worries after drag racing the car, I'd leave wondering why does it feel so different. It would take a few days before it would feel ok again. Meanwhile the pedal engagement was off and it would feel lighter if I remember right (it's been a while since I raced the car, the clutch being one of the reasons)

Chatter engaging first and especially reverse, and a whine/squeak engaging first sometimes. Supposedly normal. Don't like it. Wish we went with an OEM '13-'14 GT500 clutch in that car.

Traded it in and picked up a 2024 GT - black with performance package, active exhaust, and magneride.

FYI, if you have problems engaging the clutch for slow driving e.g. in a parking lot and get chatter, consider to take a look at your gas pedal. I had a jumpy gas pedal and after I fixed it (page 1371 this thread) this clutch chatter was gone.

Installed CV3 style front chin spoiler.
