Now at least we know why they have to wait until 07 for the Shelby...they couldnt get the performance rubber band mass produced in time.

I will tell you guys that since I removed the rubber band the darn hood keeps popping up when I start the engine.Anyone else that finds that red rubberband I would leave it on or have your hood welded shut.

Not me...it was fun. Besides, I was needing a good forum fix after the outage yesterday.

For those that don't have the rubberband, I have the stock one still. I won't be needing it anymore since I upgraded. Just PM me for details.

Okay, maybe that'll do it for me. I think it's just about gotten worn out?

maybe the red rubberbands were put there by the robot who built the cars to remind it that it has a dentist appointment on friday?

i think there is going to be a "core" charge, and will have to be installed at ford and have your computer tuned to accept the new rubber-band

I couldn't resist, even though I think I can imagine what a red rubber band looks like.

Does anybody have dyno charts with an aftermarket rubber band? I want numbers and facts before I take the plunge and spend my hard earned cash on this mod.

Hmmm.. I would keep a reserve on it at least so you don't run the risk of selling too low. You may want to consider keeping it in case you decide to return the car to stock someday!

You guys don't think it's weird that we are talking about red rubberbands?
I sense a mod coming on. I'm going to change mine to a black metalic rubber band.

I was thinkin' of doing a tungston grey rubber band with quick silver stripes, but I might have to wait for the '06 rubber bands to come out.
