Dual Exhaust

Mustang Comments Off

So I recently got the Ford Performance Dual Exhaust kit for 2005-2009 V6 Mustangs and had it installed. It is definitely worth it. Added a great sound to it, put some more horses into my overall power, and from what I can tell, has helped slightly increase my MPG by 1 to 3 extra miles a gallon. So now with that done, pretty much the last thing I want to do is add racing stripes at some point. Im in no hurry for that but it will complete the package for looks to go along with the power.

New Spoiler

Mustang Comments Off

The 22nd of this month was my birthday, so with the money I got, I purchased a pre-painted Mustang GT spoiler(also the same one that was on the 2005/2006 V6′s) and installed that myself. It took nearly an 1.5 hours to get it installed mainly because the factory spoiler was a major pain in the ass to get off. The 2007/2008 V6 Mustangs have a spoiler that lays flat on top of the trunk lid and is not raised up like the GT’s are. Along with 4 screws keeping the spoiler in place was lots and lots and lots of sticky pads. Those things are what took so long as far as the overall installation time is concerned because of how difficult they are to get off. I basically had to take a steak knife and slow sever the grip between the trunk lid and the spoiler. Once all that was done and the sticky pads removed from the trunk lid, the GT spoiler was easily installed in 2 minutes. Next step is to get the dual exhaust.

So I have recently done a little bit more work to my 2008 Mustang. To the engine, I got the manifold replaced with BBK headers so that the engine can breathe better. The next step for engine work is to add dual exhaust for even better air flow and of course to have a GT+ sound coming from my pony.

Mustang Visuals

Mustang Comments Off

Well I am taking a break from working on the engine of my Mustang and decided to start updating the visual side. For the exterior, I added a black-out panel to the trunk. It goes between the two rear taillights and adds a different look then all the rest of the 2005 series Mustangs on the road. Speaking of the taillights, I added a black-trim that sits on the top of the taillights and goes with the grooves and curves of the light’s shape. Lastly for the exterior mods, I removed the emblems on the sides of the car and added new ones. The stock emblems are of the Mustang pony symbol, and I replaced them with a “4.0 High Performance” emblem. That’s it for now for the exterior. The interior will be the next step with a few small additions in mind.

Well I got my tuner shipped, ordered, and installed. As I stated before, I am buying everything through American Muscle because of their great service, and as part of buying the tuner, I got a free custom tune programmed into the tuner for the exact engine parts that I have installed so far. The purpose behind the tune was to have my Mustang run more efficiently with the original stock parts and to fully utilize the after-market parts I have installed so far.
