I'm just wondering how it works once you have a Whipple? Would traction control actually be able to limit wheel spin in 1st and 2nd gear when you launch? I have some concerns that 1st and 2nd gear are going to be useless with a Whipple or maybe you just have to pedal the car at that point but...

Shelby Wins 10-Year Legal Battle Over "Eleanor” Car Use In Gone In 60 Seconds Films (msn.com) Dear Ford, I would like an Eleanor themed GT-500 with a manual transmission now. Thanks, Matt It's a bit of a long read but I have been following this for a long time and it went down great with my...

What RPM are you launching from and what rear wheel / tire combo are you using? How long of a burnout are you doing beforehand to warm up the tires? I haven't done any testing from a dead stop yet. I'm just rocking the standard 8.5" Continentals for now but plan on upgrading to a 19 x 11 setup...

I found a 20 x 11.5 wheel I like but could go to a 20 x 11.0 if need be. I'm wondering if the 11.5 would stick out of the wheel well too much as well. I don't care if it sticks out some at the bottom of the wheel well but I don't want it to stick out at the top of the wheel well. I'm pretty sure...

Is it around 7200 RPM and are you driving a manual or an automatic? I'm driving a manual and it seems so weird to shift before redline after a lifetime of driving manuals. I'm shifting at 7,000 rpm to try and avoid this with a redline of 7,500. Why didn't they just make redline where fuel cutoff...

Maybe it doesn't matter being the oil filters have anti drain back valves. I was just curious what you guys recommend if anything. My car has been sitting for a couple days due to bad weather.

I thought someone had put together a list of all the tools and sizes they used but I can't find it on here with the search feature.

I stumbled across this article in Motor Trend this morning. It's newer as it's only from 3 or 4 days ago and it's a compilation of every 2024 Mustang tested they have been able to get their hands on. Do these times mean the convertible is pretty much just as fast as the coupe? I thought...

If 0W - 30 is better for cold starting why not use it over 5W - 30 regardless of your climate? Even if you live in a moderate climate wouldn't it be the better choice? I'm also wondering if the engine might idle down faster at startup being the oil is lighter and easier to move around the engine...

My new car smell is pretty much gone and I'm curious to try some new scents.

Just wondering if there is a suggestion for breaking in brakes before abusing them a little bit. I'm easy on my brakes in general but I'm curious what these Brembos are about and kind of just want to stand on the brake pedal at 70 MPH and see what happens 😅

About what do you think top speed would be with a 4.09 rear gear with the MT82 transmission? I know Ford limits the car to 155 mph from the factory and I'm wondering if a car with that type of setup would still be able to reach those speeds.

I've always done this. I don't ever warm my cars up by letting them just idle for a long time but I have always let them idle down on their own terms before taking off and kept revs pretty low until the engine is at operating temperature. Do you think there is any benefit to at least let the...

I have a dash cam installed to the USB port in the rear view mirror. I’m not sure if that port is on switched power or not. Wondering if I need to unplug the thing every time I get out of the car. This is the first time I’ve gotten the warning. I’ve had the dash cam about a week. I had a faraday...

My car has a little over 300 miles on it now and I was planning on driving a bit more aggressively soon. I have an MT82 car and I'm not sure if I should be shifting at 7,500 on the tach or 7,250 because of some soft limiter I have been hearing about. Did the S550 behave in this way or is this...

I've been messing with this thing longer than I care to admit and it's the first time I have had this type of opener. The only thing I noticed is that the manual says if you want to clear the codes to press the two outer buttons for 10 seconds but that seems to be more like 20 seconds so I'm...

When I go to library & then songs sometimes my whole list of songs appears and sometimes only like 6 songs appear. Sometimes backing out and going back in or hitting explore and going back in fixes this but usually it doesn't unfortunately. Anyone else experiencing this? I'm using Amazon music...

I'm looking for trustworthy products to use for washing and between washes as well as. I'm also interested in what detailing products / rags you are using between washes ( those dang hand smudges ) and post wash chamois or alternatives you are using that seem to work well. Please mention the...

I was hoping to use a short USB splitter of some kind and power both a dash cam and a radar detector but I'm not really sure if it would be possible to power two devices off of the one port like that. I know there are some ports down by the shifter but I'd rather not run wires all over the place.
