You know what's even worse, those gawd damn women who go to the gym in the mornings to pedal their fat asses on the stationary bikes on level 1 for half an hour only to sit next to eachother to talk the whole fucking time about stupid shit. I really need to get an IPOD so I don't have the listen to their crap. I really like going to the gym without music to enjoy the peace and quiet. But listening to those old hens clucking just makes me wanna choke someone out. lol.

I may sound crazy for saying this but I really have no desire to make any changes to my Mustang. It is the first car I have ever ordered from the factory and while waiting for Ford to build it, I realized this isn't just any car - this is my car built just for me. Perhaps I am getting older and am losing the boy racer mentality? I don't know what it is but either way I love my Mustang. It is without a doubt the funnest car I have ever owned, even in its stock form.

I kind of know what you mean, but I want to try and distinguish my car from others by making it look how I want. Since the performance mods are pretty much common with everyone, looks are the difference maker. I just don't feel like painting stuff. Haha

Having owned several boosted cars with longtubes in the past, I can tell you from experience that for a street car, they are not worth the expense. Minimal gains power wise (thought they sound great) but then you begin to have issues with tunes, 02 sensors and emissions issues. Yes, you can have a "hook up" not to deal with that, but having to go through the hassle every year is a pain in the ass. Plus, these new cars will need "not ready" codes regardless.

Why even do any performance modifications then, if experience tells you its hassle and not worth expense?

I fully disagree with headers adding minimal gains to f/i setups.

[Grandpa]

I fully disagree with headers adding minimal gains to f/i setups.

These new cars are ridiculously easy to make power with as it is, so why do modifications that aren't really needed that would just make the car difficult to be inspected? Exhaust and blower on these cars will make 600-700rw depending on boost and supporting mods.

Installing longtubes on these cars are a complete pain in the ass. If you have a shop do it 1) it's going to be expensive as hell 2) you're taking a huge chance with the Mustang shops in the DFW area because most of them suck ass. Dave's car is also slammed which is going to make it difficult driving daily with speed bumps and driveways scraping everything and possibly busting collectors.

Unless you are building an all out race car trying to squeeze out every last bit of horsepower, spending $1250 on parts, plus $85 hour labor hours on install is not worth the 15-20rwhp that you will gain from it.

But that's just my opinion.

[virtu]

For the guys running around with open exhaust, do you ever get hassled by the popo? I've heard what these cars sound like and I can't even imagine driving around the city making all that noise. I'm not knocking it, I think it sounds badass and I would totally do it but it just screams "look at me look at me." I think I've got enough of that going on with the green paint. :gr_grin:

You keep mentioning inspection like getting it done is to the level of difficulty of a bar exam. I've never had a problem

Headers are a supporting mod. Less boost is needed with the added flow aftermarket headers provide therefore the stress on the motor is somewhat minimized. I hope you have seen the stock headers before making these assessments, looks like a 15 year old welded them with a years experience. I will they say do flow well for light bolt on setups.

Good luck getting local vendors to support this site and possibly offer discounts for members with those comments. :disgust:

Respectfully, i have been doing this car thing for a long time now and i personally just dont want the inspection hassle any longer. I dont want any race car type problems, i want it to start everytime i turn the key, i want to be able to take it to any inspection place without having to know someone for a hookup and all that crap. Squeezing every horsepower out of a car is a huge waste of time and money unless you are building a race car that is purpose built. I kick myself when i think about how much ive wasted over the yearsof doing this stuff. Lol

These new cars are so easy to make powerwith its silly. Exhaust, blower and a tune will make way more than i can useon the street. No need to get silly with it with parts that make the car less streetable and more of a hassle.

Again, that is my opinion that works for me. The car is suppose to be a fun hobby car. It just sits most of the time and driven to enjoy and have fun with. Its not suppose to bring more stress and less fun.

[Quake5.0]

I completely agree with steve. I really enjoy racing a race car but I really hate driving it on the street. If I get 600-700hp outta the new car I'll be just peachy and have a/c and take my wife on a date in it!

I see it like this - the longer you wait, the more likely the rebate is to go up. Hell you may even get a better deal if you do find something that has been sitting on the dealer lot for awhile that you may have missed during your searching.

Oooorrrr you could put in an order for one and get exactly what you want... :)

It's easy to find a car. Now finding a car with a price you're willing to pay is another thing entirely. At some point, you're going to have to realize you're buying a new car again and the prices have gone up a lil. You either have to pay the price, or be patient.

The ford Nav sucks and so do my heated seats, they should have put some AC in those mofros. Get a base and add brakes, sways and whatever else you want, punal.

[Grandpa]

Honestly, the Brembos are only needed if you are going to track the car. The stock brakes stop just as well, they just fade a lil sooner at the track. It's just a trendy thing for some to say they have Brembos, most people will never use them to their potential. I had Brembos on my SRT8 and they were expensive as hell when they needed something. Hardly worth it for a street car. Besides, if you really want brakes, you can buy Stoptechs cheaper than the Brembos are they are a far superior brake. It's the same thing with the 3.73's vs the 3.31's. There is hardly a noticable difference between the two gears in N/A form. If boost is in your plan down the road, the 3.73's are just going to murder tires and render your first couple of gears useless.

[Midnight11]

Your opinion... I'm not getting a base either...

Have you tried checking with a dealership to see what is currently in transit? I bought a car about 6 years ago doing it just like this. The dealership could not find the options I wanted on the car but they knew there was one coming in and expected it within a few weeks. They were able to show me some order sheet showing what was currently in shipping status. Sure enough I picked it up 3 weeks later.

It's not a base model, it's a Premium with SYNC. It just has cloth recaros.

That car was built on July 24th according to the VIN and probably arrived to the dealership a week or two later. Hasn't been on the lot too long, might be able to work em down further at the end of this month if it's not gone by then.

Interesting. Hmmm.

Found this on lotpro.com, good site to find all options available for any car. When you order a base model car, you have the option to opt for the 301A package. It's still a base model so you don't get the aluminum dash or the LCD screen in the dash with track apps etc. but you do get Sync and some other stuff.

Hey now! I would've loved to have track apps, but unfortunately Ford is retarded, and doesn't offer it on base models. If they were smart, they would sell a lot more of they did.

I didn't want leather, and I didn't want the pony lights. I DIDN'T want to pay an extra $4k for the track apps and power driver & passenger seats, when that's all I wanted from the premium.
