I cant remember, but I think I recall there being some gear options back in 2005 or 2006. My car is a manual, and no gear options are listed on the window sticker... so what gears do I have?

Reason I ask, is that my dad's '06 seems like it is easier to get going... as in you don't have to give it as much gas before letting out the clutch as i do with my car.... almost like he is running a higher gear than me. is it possible that he is running 3.55s and I am running 3.31s? or something like that?

My 05 is a manual w/ no gear option ordered and I got 3.55s

I thought that 3.55s were stock on manual.. and an option for autos?

Mine were 3:55's and as far as I know that was stock on the 05 manuals , not sure if they were an option on auto's ...

I believe on 2005-2006 models you got 3.31's in an auto and 3.55's in a manual Mustang.

Starting in 2007 3.31's became stock for both with 3.55's as an option on a manual.

Cody - look on the back of your pumpkin and there might still be a sticker on there, mine's still there but I don't see much rain or anything.

I think this is correct.

mmm....so what could cause the noticeable difference in driving? It was the very first thing I noticed when I first drove it. His has only 12,000 miles on in.. mine just turned over 40,000...maybe wear?

05GT-O.C.D.

I'd doubt it's compression loss, but could be differences in the clutches, clutch wear, etc.

are the v6s the same? i have a 2007 manual with pony package?

Maybe Cody should try that gas pedal reprogram thing. I don't remember what its called or how you do it, or even if it honestly works, but its worth a shot for a minute of your time. Anybody know what I'm talking about and have a link?

05GT-O.C.D.

I remember reading about it, but nothing more. Something about turning the car on (but not starting it), and holding the gas to the floor a certain number of times, or length of time, or something. But no, your not crazy.

100% correct!

all v6's are 3.31's from the factory - no optional ratios.

If you don't know, just look at the rear axle. It should have what's called an 'axle tag' which will display the gear ratio.

This is correct, like a few others have stated, just wanted to add another confirmation.
