    I can not decide of which exhaust to go with

    What I did was go to an exhaust mfg. web site. In my case MBRP. I let my browser find some discount codes and now I've got an active exhaust cat back for cheaper than any other online store.

    Why did you choose an automatic over a manual.

    If Ford had equipped their Mustang GT's with the Tremec, I would have gotten the manual. However, due to their implementation of the Getrag grinder on the GT, I opted for the shiftable 10 speed transmission.

    Hidden tracking device plugged into OBD2 port

    Yes, this was bought new, and I did finance it. I had put down several thousand dollars and I have excellent credit. I was thinking they were selling my data to insurance companies, but who knows. Maybe, I should lawyer up??

    Hidden tracking device plugged into OBD2 port

    While driving home, the obd2 port fell onto my left foot. When I got home I examined it and found it was a power tap off of the actual obd2 port. I followed the wires from the fallen plug up into the dash and found a Spartan Industries 4G tracking device. I removed it. It might be a good idea...

    Premium fuel for Mustang DH to be more expensive.

    Careful with Costco gas. My wife had used it for years in our old FJ cruiser. After some time, the fuel pump float system got gummed up and the fuel tank would not register below 1/4 tank. After several tankful's of Chevron with Techron 91. The sending unit freed itself and now I have an...

    Warm up or Start up and Go?

    When I start my car in the morning, I noticed the high idle goes down to 1K RPM after maybe 30 sec. However, I noticed that once my oil temp reaches 87F my idle speed goes down further. So I usually wait till that point before I pull away. It seems to make sense to do so, but am I wasting my time?

    Automatic Shift Knobs

    A classic style "T" handle shifter would be a good option for the 10R80. No one makes it though.

    Front suspension "clunks" when driving over bump/dips after mild Steeda lowering springs.

    Thanks for the advice. Problem solved. I threw a wrench on it and was able to snug up the three upper strut mount bolts on the driver side about a 1/16" of a turn each. IDK what the torque value is but I guess I applied about 40ftlbs of force. No more clunking as a result. The passenger side was...

    Shifer vibrates on idle and 2 to 3 gear grinding sound

    Wow, that's the exact same problem I had with my 2023 Mustang GT when getting on the freeway. I traded it back in for a 2024 automatic. Ford said they don't recommend speed shifting fwiw.

    Front suspension "clunks" when driving over bump/dips after mild Steeda lowering springs.

    This happens to me as well on a completely stock suspension. If I slow way down though, it does not do it.

    Just the tip (exhaust)

    I wonder how a bluing agent might look on the stock exhaust tips?

    Anyone have a better solution for front license plate - no drilling?

    I should also mention that if you mount it in your windshield as I did, you should use a silicone rubber license plate frame too. This will offer a bit of protection from the edges should you have an accident and you won't have to stare at the bare metal on the back of the plate...

    Anyone have a better solution for front license plate - no drilling?

    I have mine inside the windshield on four little suction cups. Works great! https://www.amazon.com/Perthlin-Suction-Plastic-Adhesive-Bathroom/dp/B0BD5318SY/ref=sr_1_25?keywords=suction%2Bcups%2Bfor%2Blicense%2Bplate&sr=8-25&th=1

    The oil drain plug torque value is 19 foot pounds. Just in case anyone else does not want to risk stripping theirs out. Thanks Late Model Restoration for posting that in a YT video!

    Anyone Else Amazed at the 10R80 in the S650 vs S550?

    Yes, it's impressive for a slush box transmission for sure.

    Anyone Else Amazed at the 10R80 in the S650 vs S550?

    Due to gear grinding issues, I recently traded in my craptacular MT-82 equipped 2023 GT for a 2024 GT auto with perf pack. I like to row the gears but not when they grind. My 2024 auto transmission shifts perfectly. I'm very Happy with this set up, I only wish Ford would address their MT-82 issues.
