Hey guys gonna give a bit of context first. Earlier today I had a friend who works at a local Ford install for me the Ford Performance Track Handling Pack, excluding the sway bars. I bought them used off another friend who tracks his 2015 GT, but has since upgraded to coil overs. I have a 2019...
What’s up guys! Looking at beginning modifying the suspension. I recently bought Ford Performance shocks/struts with the track lowering springs and camber plates from a buddy of mine. Looking at finding sway bars to buy while the car is on the lift to do it all in 1 shot. My friends swears by...
Hey guys. Autocrossing my 2019 GT in April. Currently i have on Falken Azenis fk460 a/s tires. stock tire sizes 245/275. I really don't want to destroy my all-seasons. I'd rather buy a set of summer tires and when it starts to get cold again throw the all-seasons back on. I'm looking for a tire...
Hey guys. I bought a pair of Elite-R fixed back bucket seats from BRAUM. Having a hard time installing all the brackets to the seat bottom. I opted for the side mount brackets to give angle adjustment and top of the seat slide rails. I’m just completely lost as to how to do this properly. I’ve...

I've been working on a plan for installing an oil cooler on my 2015 GT. While piecing a parts list together I got to wondering if it would be possible to buy and install the Ford Performance Oil Cooler kit (M-6642-M50D) from the 2024+ Dark Horse.I don't mind needing to modify the brackets...
Hey guys, my name is Nick, new to the forum. I just bought a 2019 GT PP1 10spd without magnaride suspension. I plan to autocross it next season, but unsure what kind of prep work i need to do to the car prior to entering a event. Like is the car able to just arrive and drive as is? The only...
Hey yall ! I’m going to be picking up this car tomorrow, it’s a 2022 gt got about 20k miles on it. What’s some stuff I should look out for or any helpful information on make sure it’s all good. Thank you !
Since the S550 has EPSA, is an angle kit a good mod to change the steering ratio so less steering input is needed to turn the car?
I understand this can limit the wheel width that can be used.
Any thought?
what would be pros and cons?
What cooling upgrades do I REALLY need?
Bigger radiator?
10R80 trans cooler?
Engine oil cooler?
Diff cooler?
All of the above?I noticed I can probably barbecue a whole chicken in the front wheel wells, fender vents?Time attack purposes, the tracks are small to medium , from 3 to 3.6 km, with...
Radiator:
I really can’t find a definitive answer on radiator. I plan to duct the radiator once I get the proper radiator. Im just struggling to choose which radiator. Is a single pass sufficient? Is a triple pass even better but provide too much pressure and not worth it for an N/A car? Which...
Tell me what you think of this video format.I normally do in the car and rear and try to see enough of the road from in the car, but cameras often mess up focusing on the interior. Also, in car, you see the violence of the G forces more.Seems a little video gamey, but I can see where the...

I have a 2013 5.0 with a very loud exhaust. Not quite straight piped loud, but quite loud at anything above 30% throttle. It sounds great at WOT, but being that it’s a daily driver, I’d like it to be quieter when I’m just trying to take off from stoplights and such. So I’m looking at quieting it...

I was told by someone that installing rear LCA Spherical bearings will introduce binding with road racing cars and they are mostly for dragracing. Any truth to this, it confused me because I don’t understand how it could be true?
