Hey, found this site through svtp. I'm glad to find a more local group. I'm from Waco and there are a lot of Mustangs in the area but I haven't found any local groups. This is my first Mustang. I've owned Jeeps in the past and was part of Lonestar Jeep Club in DFW.
My car is a 2011 GT premium A6. So far I've only installed Flowmaster Hushpower ABs and tint.

Man I wish it was! Saving for the parts to do just that. Coming from a 4 door Jeep with what seems to have half the hp that this car does and sitting on 35" tires, this thing hauls ass! So, while I still feel it has plenty of hp, I'm working on suspension first more hp later.

When my car was stock on the exact same wheels/tires, I remember there being more wheel gap on my car. Maybe the pick is throwing me off. Any idea on suspension mods yet?

So far, I've heard nothing but good things about BMR and Whiteline. Springs, panhard bar, uca, lca w/relo bracket, that should get me started! I need to do more reading on shocks or possibly coilovers before I decide the exact route I want to go. I went through 3 different lifts with the jeep, I did all the installs myself including the lockers and replacing the rear axle, so I have some experience with turning wrenches. I just want to do it right the first time with the Mustang.
I am always open to suggestions though. I know there are modifications that can be done to the front suspension. Most of the things I've read is about whats needed for he rear.

Thanks everyone for the welcomes!
