I'm guessing he is still working on getting it dialed in good at that power level and adjusting from there

The 17/15 combo looks ******* ****. His Mustang is the reason I bought the same damn combo.

The built motor just went in a few months ago. He continually breaks **** at this power level, rear...rear...again...5th is gone...drivehaft snapped and smacked the block so hard it put a crack in it so that's why he has a built motor in it. He'll be turning it loose here in the next few months. Got the tiny pulley and will be doing a surge tank setup for E85.

SO another that didn't do research on the MT-82 tranny. I wish I would wasted time with one. They suck. Buddy took his tranny out with his Paxton on 10lbs very first day out. 2013 5.0. Now has nuilt manual on way. Nothing like a 5k fix. LOL.

He knows about the MT82 issues. He just doesn't really give a ****.

I missed out, recently realized they were massively discounted lat month!!!

I wouldn't mind 17's all around. Better than running the GTO spares like many were forced to run to clear big brakes.


Maybe this one will change your mind...

The unilug was on sale. Which are a pain in the *** to take on and off. They was on sale cause not going to make anymore. Direct drill is worlds better.

sorry, it doesnt change my mind on how i feel about the 15 inchers matched with 17's in the front. It makes it look like the back wheels and tires are lower even though tire height would say otherwise. kinda reminds me of old cars with old saggy rear springs!!! LoL but like i said, at least they serve a purpose but i wouldnt do that mod on a late model car for looks!!!

Not a fan of whatever exhaust is on the 5.0, sounds flat to me.

So far my buddy hasn't had an issue with them. They definitely take a little longer, but if you aren't taking them on and off a lot, I know I won't, then what's the issue?

He's not of a fan of it himself. Personally I like it because it has a different sound to it, not the typical hollow Mustangy sound.

I see where everybody was bagging on him for having street tires, I can identify with him. My Cobra has regular street tires on it 95% of the time, since I use it to drive to and from work.

And unless if you had 555Rs like I used to have as DD tires, you will be swapping out tires constantly. Granted I never drove my old car much because I always worked and didn't want it in the shitty part of town at the bank I worked at
