    Too Many Issues for a New Car?

    LouG ... Nothing to do with the tires or wheels, its about the backlash of the axle and hub sticking together and when the engine starts the shock load coming from the drive shaft releases the free play that causes the Bang...

    H Pipe voids warranty?

    The Risk Never really goes away, but knowledge will always mitigate that risk. You just keep on doing what works for you. Like you said, your only paying just a little more for it all anyway. No worries...

    H Pipe voids warranty?

    Remember what I said... The dealer has to prove that the H pipe caused the failure in the cat to deny the warranty claim. It was only a example I was using... If they could PROVE that the X pipe was defective or that X pipe was plugged up And that was the reason why cat failed then they could...

    H Pipe voids warranty?

    If the manufacturer would claim that the H pipe caused the cat to plug up it could deny the warranty claim, but remember that the burden of proof is always on the manufacturer. Also keep in mind that the H pipe is after the o2 sensors and cats so its not technically any thing to do with any...

    Will aftermarket headers void warranty?

    As stated by Kitulu The Magnussen Moss Act may Apply here... But my better judgement is that BECAUSE the headers are before the Cats and the up and down stream o2 sensors that this in itself would violate Federal air pollution law based upon a modifications of a federal emission part under the...

    Depending on your tires... and weather it hooks or not at 40 to 60. Right around 5,000 rpm is where you want to be and traction off if you don't blow off your tires. A little spin is ok.

    Traction Control

    Chrysler's Sure-Brake system... WoW I've been around for a while but a new one for me... My first car was a 1960 Dodge Phoenix with a 360 4 barrel and a push button 3 speed on left side of the dash. Do you think that might have it ?

    Traction Control

    Please don't talk to people on this forum like you know who I am, or you have any knowledge of the expertise I may or may not have in this area or any other for that matter. I applaud the fact that you went somewhere to learn about something you have no knowledge about. ( "I never knew how much...

    My QUESTION would be did you set the parking brake when you parked that night ??

    Is there a fuse or plug to pull for disabling TCS and Torque limiting??

    It's called the dyno plug. Most all high performance car's have them. My Mercedes E-550 Twin Turbo 4.7 V8 has an option in the setting to enable this to be turned off. Mercedes calls this Diagnostic Mode. On the Mustang it has by pass plug in it set as default Off. Simply remove the end cap plug...

    2024 GT potential buyer having hesitations

    When you first fire it up it's in what Ford calls Normal Mode... it more accurately should be called Eco Mode because that's exactly what it is, and the only mode that is used to represent the EPA stated MPG. It's horrible and that's a fact. Unless of course your on empty and the next gas...
