totally forgot dude. give me 5 minutes and check your PM's.
the only chrome wheels that i like on mustangs are the bullitts. everything else just looks too DUB for me. either way you got a badazz car!
thanks man.. But i am not a chrome man at all even if i had a suv on 28's it would be PCOriginally Posted by Dwisforme05
But then again i might sell the car and get something faster stock and start from a new platform.

I drive a low is3 just so it gives me a reason to drive super slow on these rough ga roads.
gl mustang wold right now is not doing great, its very hard to sell right now, most cobras are going for 21k +/- near stock low miles in good condition. Hell mine right now on the market is would only go for about 15k maybe 16k if i held out. So....Originally Posted by stay_up

2006 mustang gt

Gents, I've just stepped into your world. Bought mine about a month ago. I'm not positive as to what all's been done, but there are a few things. I think just a CAI and exhaust (manufacturer unknown, as of yet). Bought it from a dealer, so go figure they know nothing. He said he also thought there was aftermarket suspension work done...but I think it's just that it's a GT.
Anyways, 2006 Mustang GT, 5spd, 4.6, tungsten grey. I'm gonna say there's no aftermarket stuff done.
Future plans? Well...looking for some hot tips from those already in the game. First thing will probably be an alarm and hidden radar detector. I don't know yet if I wanna do looks or performance or suspension. PROBABLY speed, first. Any suggestions where to start? It's supposedly running 300whp right now. First goal is 400. If I'm happy I'll stop, if not, I'll bump for 500. Just kinda NOT wanting to face gas prices...
Anyways, here she is.

Nice, car but i would change the rims and get the car lowered. Also the exhuast looks like it might be the factory upgraded FRPP exhuast. Next, your 3v from the factory makes i think 300hp and 320tqr which is the same as my car. The intake and exhaust really dont help all that much. Even more so with the car still running the stock h-pipe with cats. What you need to do is look into lowering the car, short shifter, tune, full exhaust system, gears if you dont like the stock 3:55( i think)! this would be a good start and not all that expensive!![]()

I really like the wheels that are on it...but being that they're factory and I saw another one with the same rims the day I drove her home, I want something different. Just gotta find something I like... What's the diff/how can you tell the 3v from the 2v? I've never assumed the exhaust and intake to improve performance...just prepare for a performance making part and/or to improve sound. I definitely wanna drop it...eh...2inches or so. But I wanna find a suspension set up that's either adjustable, or comfortable yet sporty. I'll probably avoid the short shifter as I've never been a fan of them. Too easy to miss gears if you let someone else drive it...but we'll see with time. Is it really worth it to tune it while it's just a stock motor...? What exhaust systems are recommended? As for the gears...I want speedy pickup, but I also have to take in mind the cost of gas and gas mileage because I'll be on the highway more than enough time...
JDMadness ==>EvasiveEF9
^ lol a 2v would be a 2004 down to like a 96 gt, a 3v i think is 2005 up gt, and a 4v is the cobra or mach 1 cars. I would go with some 3.73's gears because u want see a big drop in the gas miles. and with a bassani xpipe and catback. on top of that get a xcal3 for the tune and believe me it is worth it it could get u better gas and power in spots u don't currently have![]()

^^^^ Very nice, i would love to see your car! reminds me alot of my old one! I was going to do magnapck dumps but went with lawson ind. incinrators(sp)!
I am a big fan of the 3.55 but thats becuase i still like the top end and plan down teh road when the car makes enough power for the power band to be just right.Originally Posted by stay_up
Also for recommending exhaust its all choice. Use youtube best place to get an idea of what you want. I love magnapacks, borla, mac! tuner wise again, personal choice i would say the Diablo Predator Programmer!
For an 05+ I'd go at least 4.10s or just leave it alone since the stock gears are already 3.55. IMO it wouldn't be worth the $ to install 3.73s.
Anyways here's mine:
K&N drop in w/o the silencer
dumped Magnapacks
Eibach Sportlines
KYB shocks/struts
poly swaybar and steering rack bushings

Mine's the red one.
So bump to 4.10s or 4.30s.Originally Posted by 40th GT

as far as the programmer goes, I would talk to some performance shops, decide who you want to work on your car and use what they like best. I haven't gotten a tuner for mine yet, but I'm leaning towards SCT and Amazon Tuning. I've heard good things about Modular Power House too though and I think they like the Diablo Programmers.
My friend had his 03 tuned at modular powerhouse with his sct. They did a great job and he really liked them (stg 3 steggy, bunch of little things)

I have had 2 96 stangs besides the 04 i have now and 1 of them had reg gears the other 1 still has 3.73 and there is a big difference i no for atleast the 04 and down cars. and the best thing about it is it gets the same gas as the other without the gears..

The pumpkin has a decal that says "3.55" and then some other crap. Is it factory or aftermarket has 3.55...?
JDMadness ==>EvasiveEF9
And i've had six mustangs, five of which were 00-04 GT's:
2000 Performance Red Spring Edition GT Coupe
2002 Torch Red GT Coupe (Novi 2000, 3.73s)
2002 Mineral Grey GT Vert (Bolt-Ons, Black BBS RK Staggered)
2001 True Blue Bullitt GT (Novi 2000, Viper T56, 3.73s)
2004 Competition Orange GT Coupe (Roush Body, S-Trim, 4.10s)
I'll buy #7 if ford steps up quality and doesn't have crap resale. This probably won't happen, so i'm glancing at Evo X's once I pay off the Element.
Yeah, I'm not happy about the resale I'm gonna have on the stang...but, hey...I wanted a toy. Not something to trade back. Not for a while, anyways.Originally Posted by LOLABOX

Then you got a decent car for just that. Much better than a GM product.Originally Posted by EvasiveEF9

I don't like Cobras or Cobra owners, so I didn't buy one. Cost of 4v parts is so much more than 2v's and you don't ever really see high-power 2v's. I was intending on going nuts on the orange one, but it really got pointless at the end.Originally Posted by stay_up
4,10 or 4.30 are almost to much gear for the street. i rec 3.90 which is what im runnin but now i wanna change baqck to 3.55 so if anyone wants to pay the labor to get mine changed back ill give them the 3.90s.
but as for cheap upgrades and pwr. with the gears, a jlt intake, full exhaust, and tuner i made 310rwhp and 320rwtq

Neither are too much gear for the street, even with 460rwhp like my Bullitt had.Originally Posted by onebadgt
excuse me there to much for me. with 4.30 your in 5th hear by 50 and cruise at 70 at lie 3500rpms.Originally Posted by OTG Signs
and if you have much over 450whp you will hafta shift into 5th at the 1/4 track which blows!

Was walking through a Toyota dealership and came acrossw hat I thought was a normal 2001 black GT when I realized upon closer inspecition it was a 2001 Bullitt which they only made about 1800 of in black. I didn't want to pass it up so two days later my RSX was gone and I bought this![]()

4.10s push it if its your only car on gas mileage. But they are a frickin blast.

Mine has factory 3.55s, but its an 04
06 5spd GT 4.6L here...not trying to brag, just lettin' it be known what I've got...but so hopefully I can figure out what the hell I have, LoL.
JDMadness ==>EvasiveEF9
the only options in the 06 5 spd are 3.55 so that is what you have. in 07 you could get 3.55 or 3.31!
