First mods to the new 2014 GT...

Just a couple of simple ones, took almost 15 minutes!

These were saved off of my 2012 V6 before I let it go.

White shift **** from LRS and a polished boot adapter from A/M.


Redline tuning hood struts, simply the best on the market!






Sure am glad now that I never got around to painting the brackets for the struts Yellow Blaze to match the 2012!

Nice Mods

I agree with you. Ordered the Redline hood struts and had them on in 15 minutes. Best mod I have ever done.

Best of luck with your new Mustang.

Heck no, I like the sound tube. I was the first one to take one from a GT and put it on my V6!

I'm going to pull one of the foam baffles out so I can hear it better.

Cancel the order and call Epco, they do custom shift ***** too, and they cost less.

I've been waiting a couple of weeks already for my Grabber Blue shift **** from CJ Pony, as well. They say that they are custom made to order and take 3 weeks, so I knew I would have to wait, but not patiently!

Latest mod to the new beast...

Pulled this plug out of the firewall end of the sound tube, sounds really good at WOT now, could hardly hear it before.

Just ordered the Flowmaster "Outlaw" axle back.

After searching around I found the best price at a place called Autoplicity, anyone ever buy from them? They were about $55 cheaper than anyplace else I could find, $343 shipped. They had a 5 star customer rating on google and Amazon but I'd never heard of them before.

Yep got mine from CJ as well, it's a great product but be prepared to wait a month for it.

Okay, at WOT it is a lot louder with one of the foam baffles out. There are two in the system, one at the end of the tube where it comes through the firewall and another in the tube just behind the diaphragm housing bolted to the inner fender.

The one at the firewall is easy to remove, just reach up on the left of where the clutch link goes through the firewall and find the whole where the sound tube comes through and you can pinch the end of the foam plug and pull it out.

Now, if you want it really loud you can take both baffles out by pulling the tube off the back of the diaphragm housing and pulling the baffle out of the tube.

If you pull both baffles out you will hear it any time you put your foot down on the throttle any at all and at WOT it will really be very loud.

Meh, that's what hood vents are for.

No, hood vents are there to vent heat from underhood.

I may have to play with that sound tube. Then probably remove it.
