One of the saddest things is I wasn’t able to afford these upgrades until the Ngauge was long discontinued 😢

First mods for any S550 Mustang should be dealing with wheelhop BEFORE adding HP.

Great video!!

How did you fill out the form it doesn’t give me the option to say I have new long tube headers and that I want to raise the RPM limit, or do I specify that under additional information?

Great video. That’s the exact setup I’m chasing but my problem is that with headers the car is way too loud. I have small kids and I’m limited to when I can drive lol

You can get high flow cats now from MAK which just came out 30+ days ago! I had their older MAK race pipes with no cat's because at the time they didn't have this and I agree LT headers are too loud. I added 2 X 3.0 inch Thunderbolt 400CEL HFC's to the MAK race pipes and it sounds awesome with my Borla S-Type and X pipe setup! Low RPM's it's quiet as help and a 50% tone increase when going WOT but nowhere close to obnoxious!

So are u saying that if I want to run twin turbo it best to get shorty header then long tube header

Wheres jay and i thought bob was the silent one

Where did you get that 2018 5.0 intake manifold?

I 100% agree with stock air box thing, I know it's true especially on these mustangs.. They Dyno them with the hood up, and if it's not ramming in through the front grill the way stock does, don't do it.. I have seen one Rauch CAI that met right up to the front grill like stock and closed it's box off from the rest of the motor with weather stripping that buts right to the hood when closed to keep out heat..

Most of the CAI's have an air inlet from the bumper/front of the car so this isn't very good advice

What size injectors will you be running

Hmmm my viper was cheaper to tune then your mustang 🤔 I’m thinking of doing a somewhat similar set up for my stang tho

Where did you order the ngauge from?

500 at the wheels is the magic number 😂

Great vid. I got my 2015 GT 6 speed about 6 months ago and the first mods im doing to them is all shifter/clutch related. I feel like the car already makes more HP than what the stock shifter setup can handle. Have you experienced any shifter slop or high rpm lockouts? What's your plan for the trans?

@ShiftingLanes

I feel your shifter concerns and it is on my list of “next mods” along with some rear suspension upgrades to reduce wheel hop. As I understand it making the shifter assembly more accurate and reducing wheel hop gives the mt82 the best chance at surviving. Eventually I want to go built mt82 or a t56 magnum paired with a twin disc clutch.

@@Firesealb99 yea I just did the new trans fluid about 3 months ago and it made a world of difference for the mt82. Do you think the blowfish bracket made much of a difference for you or was it mostly the fluid and spring. Im sure its hard to tell what did what if u did all 3 at the same time but from my experience the fluid alone made the first 3 mins of driving so much smoother almost equivalent to a warmed up transmission.

same here, one of the first mods I ordered were all related to shifter, steeda tri-ax race shifter, braided clutch line, steeda shifter helper spring and a BG Fluid II along with other maintenance items and few quality of life upgrades and accessories....having just bought the car more power is the last thing I need, first I want to do some maintenance and improve the reliablity and improve what I don't like currently (the shifter feel)....also ordered some good light wheels and sticky tires and after that I am looking into suspenstion, but not lowering, just sway bars to reduce body roll and some IRS items to fix some cheap design choices by ford I don't think I will get to adding power until at least one year of ownership....and probably will only be 2018 intake manifold and tune, I want to keep my car n/a for as long as it bings me eneough thrill and joy

Yo I’m thinking of doing this to my 2020 Coyote but of course already has the Gen 3 manifold so I’m good there stock. I want to ask how it did for you? All these mods? I’m wanting to keep mine NA at least for a while for more reliability but that may change in the near future if I start tracking the car! But I wanted to ask how it help up with these mods for the time being and if it’s still a good recommendation for my gen 3! Just trying to weigh my options!

Absolutely love the mods. Combine them with bigger tired (305 out back) and she’s so much fun to drive. If your looking for the best na manifold the cobra jet is the way to go. Check out our dyno video on the mods. Added 50 hp to the wheels. And with the higher compression in the gen 3 you can get really good power na. Locking out the imrcs does lose a little power down low. But overall Thea mods were great! Would highly recommend.

I am keep stock header's I think that is where people go wrong.. instead of buying Header's and a whole new exhaust and an Intake.. Just set all that money aside and keep saving for a super charger, then get a wibble or what ever you want and take the car to 650 wheel with everything else stock as can be maybe an H pipe or X pipe for sound. And I will try to use a ford super charger if I can. That's my plan anyway.. I'm going to stay stock for the next 2/3 years while saving and looking for the right people to do the SC and work plus Tune.. The one thing I happy about that came stock were the 373 gearing, it's perfect for this motor and the Manual..
