When this guy removed his existing shifter, the shifter bushing was not on the ball end of the shifter (the part that fits into the transmission). Sometimes you have to fish the bushing out of the transmission. He also didn't mention swapping the bushing onto the MGW shifter. You have to do this.

Like your vids. When i had my 99 and 03 Cobras i had a steeda triax. Was perfect on the 99 but didnt like it on my 03. Your vids make me miss those cars. Had kids so needed a more practical car. My version of a minivan is my 2014 ruby red raptor. And my wifes grocery getter is a 2012 srt8 Cherokee. Your vids have made me get the itch for another 03-04 Cobra.

Mustang Lifestyle MGW is a big difference when it comes 2 shifting! You learn something new every day. Meaning, how you replaced, the old shifter, to putting in the new 1. Very impressive! Other than the whine of the supercharger (Not Feeling) the sound. But I hear the meanest, of the Cobra, when you got on it!

You can lower the standard handle down further and it'll be close to race handle but more comfortable imo. You can raise it by halfway up and be close to their comfort handle. I like the standard handle cuz it can be adjusted towards race or if you're going for a long cruise to a show, adjust it up to comfort. I swear by mgw in my 03 gt vert.

I had an MGW on my 2000 Camaro Z28 and loved it. I've also driven two SN Cobra's with t45's, one had an MGW with the standard handle and the other had an MGW with a race handle. Race handle was too short and made some shifts difficult but when you got it right, it slammed home. I'd go with the standard. Much more comfortable to daily it around/cruise with. I have a Triax in my 99GT and am looking to replace it with an MGW. MGW has much better return to center and gate feel. Comparing all the common t45/t56 Mustang shifters, in order of preference: MGW w/ Standard Handle > Triax > Pro 5.0 > BBK.

Technical question for Andrew: When doing VMP dyno pulls.... Can the 2015-2017 Mustang GT factory speed limiter cause the fuel shutoff to happen early. I have Roush phase 2 installed and and fuel shut-off is happening at 6850 rpm on dyno pulls. (625 RWHP). I have 3.55 rear.
@MustangLifestyleTV
7 жыл бұрын
What tune are you currently running? It is possible to hit speed limiter. It is all a good idea to remove the ABS fuse + the "tree" plug on the passenger side where the cold air intake sits. It depends how high of RPM you are bringing it up to.

I meant driver side. Sorry. The ABS fuse is in the fuse box. It will disable all traction control/advance track. If you wanted to remove the speed limiter you could get a aftermarket tune. VMP Performance's tunes are very good especially for 15+ Roush/TVS cars.

hey Mustang Lifestyle, is your center console vent bezel rattling? i notice you are using the old "card" trick. My new edge had the same issue, to stop the rattling it took off the entire bezel, you will notice where the bezel rested against ( or rather, where would rattled against) was a small "edge" of the dash right behind it. What i did to fix it was i got some the "soft" side of Velcro and cut it to fit the width of that edge and put it all around the edge. This "cushioned" the bezel and filled the empty space preventing the damn thing from rattling like a toy. If you have a similar issue give it a try so you don't have to use cards or pennies to shut it up.

I've never understood the fascination with mustangs. They all sound the same no matter what you do to them. They all look the same no matter what you do to them. They're only good for one thing performance-wise and that's 1/8 or 1/4 mile racing. Now I understand to each their own, but if you were going to build a "performance" car wouldn't you build one that was an all-around car? Cimino's down it Myrtle Beach during Mustang week or Ford week not sure what it's called in some of these guys had a hundred thousand plus dollars put into these Mustangs and none of them or capable of keeping up with the stock 911 or Corvette on the track. I just don't get that loud look at me single purpose vehicle mentality I guess. Then there's the orders the only people worse then Mustang owners are Duramax owners. 🤣🤣🤣
