You must be from the Cleveland area as we got rid of the E checks down in Cincinnati. We really need them back to get some of the Junkers off the road that really give people respiratory problems.

I love Borla systems and have had it on nearly every performance car I have had. I cannot wait for you to post some videos.

Do a Borla rear section exhaust, but it will simply sound good and maybe add a single hp at most. If you want it to sound like a F&F tuner car, stop by your dealer and pick up an old Mustang 95 and older with the Windsor 302. For $1000 in mods, you will be eating most of the ricers around town...

If anything, get a second opinion to put your mind at ease with another dealership. For paranoid people like us car enthusiasts, peace of mind is very important!

Look at what happened to Ferrari. I recall a famous quote from a certain Ferrari who even went as far as to say that turbocharging is for companies who do not know how to build a real engine. Now they are hopping onto the turbo bandwagon. That means that engines like their small displacement...

If you are worried about the filter, go for the TRD filter from the dealer. Mobil 1 also has a filter for our cars, but they are not what they used to be after Champion Labs got bought out by some equity firm who is now manufacturing them in China. I tried to buy the M1 filter for my Corolla...

In that case, yes do much more frequent oil and filter changes!

Ford does not really need to do a lot. Ford has decided to mature their interpretation of the traditional pony car by offering a feel that is much easier to live with daily driving. Most drivers will never take their car to the track or drag strip anyway. While the Camaro is faster and more...

Stay away from oiled filters. They can mess up your MAFS and also allow larger particles into the engine. As for tires, it is about what you want.

You are actually free to use the maintenance plan at any point. I used my 5000 mile service at 4000 miles and the 10k service at 8000miles. Modern engines do not need to be changed as early as engined used to in the old days when engines used special break-in oil. Most new Fords go 10-12k miles...

Well the Hellcat engine sure changed the game, but long term reliability of Chrysler cars scare me. What I love about the new Mustang is how it changed the pony car wars. Unlike the Camaro, it grew up. Ohh, and you can also actually see out of it.

Your assessment is about right on. Manufacturers pretty much optimize their vehicles very well to the point that doing typical power adders like this are often very minor. It is more about the sound and looks than performance. With many of those performance intakes, heat soak is a very big...

He should be able to get fairly comfortable inside the new Mustang. The Challenger should also be doable although those things are really heavy and thus negates a lot of their v8 power advantage.

If he runs into problems, will you financially assist him? I mention that because he states that he is under a budget. When you mod, you better be ready to pay to play.

I see. That is just like the mood lighting that come on the higher trim Ford models. Not bad!

Any upholstery shop can do a very high quality custom leather job on your seats. It all depends on the quality of the leather you want.. What are interior underflow lights?

Flat spots can actually permanently disturb the balance of your tyre. I think it depends on a lot of factors though. If you are a car enthusiast who has suffered rodent damage, you will have a special dislike of those damn critters. Not only can they really do a number of wiring, but they have...

Well, it all boils down to what you want. I am generally pretty happy with basic factory alloys so long as they are machine polished. I am not as big of a fan of painted or chrome plated as living in the salt belt is not kind to that. These days, cars ship from the factory with really good...

Here is what I would do and this is a trick that dealers use to prevent their slow moving showroom cars from developing flat spots on the tyres. Get some carpet segments and then park your car on the segments. After that, overinflate the tyres to 40 or so psi. So long as your battery is in good...

Exactly! That is precisely why non factory lowering kits almost always void the warranty. Over the many years, I have seen lots of people lower their vehicles and then whine when the dealer will not cover drivetrain related problems like leaks around the halfshaft seals.
