Why I'm not getting the Ford Performance Power Pack 2018 Mustang GT - STANG STORIES

[@Zander13Productions]

Glad to see you back

[@streetridaz]

Thanks brother At least showing up. Lol I've got a lot to catch up on.

[@crimsonstang]

I understand that commute. I commute 40 miles each way 5 times a week. Just crossed 32,000 miles on my 18 GT.

[@streetridaz]

Yep, we gotta do what we do. The best part of quarantine is keeping many thousand miles of the Stang. Lol

[@crimsonstang]

@@streetridaz you got lucky in that regard! I had a bit off but now I'm back.

[@streetridaz]

@@crimsonstang true that. I'm still working from home until the kids go back to school and that's been politicised so that won't happen anytime soon. Lol

[@JR007x]

missed you bro...great to see the 5.0 again and everything you're doing to it. stay safe too and all this will pass (eventually). ps, my 5.0 is just a weekend driver as well right now.

[@streetridaz]

Makes the drives pretty rowdy. Lol

[@BLACKKNIGHTMUSTANG]

Was wondering what was going on with ya Bro. Glad to see you back Family 💪 Stang Life 🐎

[@streetridaz]

Thanks brother. Doing great hope and the fam are safe and healthy

[@Volwer]

It was just this weekend I wondered, "When did Street uploaded a vid the last time?? Hope he´s alright with all that shit that´s going on atm in the world!" SO GLAD to hear something from u! Glad you and you´re family are well! ;-)

[@streetridaz]

Thanks brother. Good to hear back from you. Hope you and yours are safe and healthy.

[@SinnfullDuck]

Oh bro I missed you! You looking GOOD! I got some news for you and some questions for you. We'll have to chat soon.

[@SinnfullDuck]

Btw, my focus got a class action lawsuit for the transmission too. The clutch keeps going bad.. I ended up getting a letter saying ford will replace it for free forever.

[@streetridaz]

@@SinnfullDuck thanks brother. That sucks but good I guess. We finally have a class action lawsuits for the mt82. I don't expect much from it but we'll see.

[@sinisternm]

i got clickbaited, i wanted to see my cuz from the thumbnail, lol. nice community you got here. - nick

[@anthonywilliams3741]

Been awhile brotha, good to hear car still holding up.

[@streetridaz]

Thanks for checking in. Car is running great.

[@ronnyek4242]

I think mt82 was revised mid 2018... I can shift hard aggressive or cruise and don't have any problems. Shit I can shift into 1st going faster than I'd expect to be able to and it doesn't sound like it's unhappy doing so

[@madmotorhead9425]

Welcome back

[@streetridaz]

Thanks brother

[@frozenstang3868]

Think about this, if you only put 350 miles in 6 months the warranty is pointless. As for the trans, short shifting and granny shifting is not what it was designed for, they shift fine when your ripping. I have added a MGW shifter, BG gear oil and some moly to the trans and it shifts great.

[@streetridaz]

That's only under quarantine. Otherwise it's 600 miles a week and yeah it works when ripping but it's still super notchy and it bugs me.

[@frozenstang3868]

@@streetridaz Yes i was dissappointed when i got my car that i had to spend so much just to make it acceptable. Getrag is a good transmission manufacturer i think the chinese just fucked it up especially after 18 when the forks started breaking. I leave in second gear when the trans is cold in the morning. I said screw warranty and put a blower on last winter but only 2500 miles in 6 months,stupip corona

[@Phoneman-oc4fi]

Great choice on the intake. Installed Injen on my wife’s ‘18 GT and she asked if I did something to her car because it felt “more angry than normal”. As far as content, why don’t you carve up some of those California valley roads and put out some POV videos

[@streetridaz]

I have considered that Need a good camera still.

[@mustangtony2933]

Street..........the Injen looks like a great piece. But as a fellow Californian, it's not CARB approved. What are you gonna do when it's time to smog?

[@streetridaz]

It's super easy to put the old one back on but fortunately for me we don't have to smog in my county.

[@ronnyek4242]

Did you ever get typewriter tick figured out? My 18 pp2 has the typewriter tick and want to try to figure it out and get fixed (if something is actually broke) prior to warranty expiring. Only have 6k on the car because it was my weekend driver

[@streetridaz]

Ford came out with a tsb and said it's normal and will no longer address it. I think it bull shit because they can't tell me what's making the sound but my car has 20k and runs great.

[@stacyNdanae]

Hey Street! Happy to see you, how you been?

[@streetridaz]

Doing good! How are you my dear? Hope you and the kids are well.

[@stacyNdanae]

@@streetridaz We are doing good. I'm happy to know that despite all those bad things happening in Cali you and your family are okay. Be safe my friend.

[@fordtechlife]

Im Not Political, im just a proud American!!! Is see mustangs American flags i hit the like button lol 🔴⚪🔵🇺🇸👊💪🔧🚘🐎🦊

[@streetridaz]

Proud to be an American! I'm with that.

[@user-bk5ey9ws5g]

Hi, what cold air intake did you go with that doesn't require a tune? Also what exhaust do you have again? Still the stock active with Steeda xpipe.

[@streetridaz]

Yeah active with stress xpipe. I went with injen evolution.

[@user-bk5ey9ws5g]

@@streetridaz Nice, I was thinking off the roush Cai which I think doesn't need a tune as well. I have the same exhaust set-up but I just caved and purchased the Corsa extreme active catback. Getting installed on Tues at Steeda. Going crazy waiting

[@streetridaz]

@@user-bk5ey9ws5g I was looking at the roush but it seems it heat soaks really bad over stock cai. The injen lowered idle temps a lot.

[@horsepoweraddiction808]

I work in Napa and live in Lakeport so I understand commuting. I have a 800horse 2015 stand. Im a mechanic I do all my own work including built the engine so if you want help or advice hit me up

[@streetridaz]

Thanks brother! That's a nasty commute. I guess it could be worse though. At least Ukiah to Santa Rosa is all freeway.

[@horsepoweraddiction808]

Ya it’s 1 1/2 hours minimum each way

[@tammybreuker7831]

What cold air intake did you get and did you have to tune it for that?

[@streetridaz]

I went with the Injen Evolution. No tune required. Someone got the idea that I was claiming huge power gains with it even though I didn't but it just makes the car feel so much more responsive and better over all.

[@biged2193]

what intake did you go with?

[@streetridaz]

I went with the Injen Evolution.

[@TurianX]

Damn son! You lost a lot of weight!

[@streetridaz]

Lol yeah man. 80lbs been trying to build muscle these past 6 months.

[@texacalimajor1767]

Ford bought my car back.... i surrender it on friday... have to wait till mid 21 for gt350... we shall see.. be safe! (Oh.. mustang 2015 6v 61k miles) engine blew at 21k.. bought it at 17k in 18.. damn gina

[@streetridaz]

That sucks but glad it worked out.

[@sizzahandz1]

Is it CA legal?

[@streetridaz]

No but nothing is, not even freedom. Lol

[@sizzahandz1]

@@streetridaz fuck it I'm getting it anyway...wont have to smog for another 4 years.

[@streetridaz]

@@sizzahandz1 🤜🤛

[@MrDaavee]

Maybe i missed it, but if you got a cold air intake that didn't require a tune, you literally wasted money. The factory air box is far superior to non tune required cold air boxes. Hell, i push over 820whp through the factory air box (connected to a vortech jt v3). Pulling the tube off so air goes straight to the blower and i gained 20whp. Honestly dude, your butt dyno is way off. The only change you got is just the sound. There is a ton of cold air intake comparison videos all over youtube showing in detail and hp/tq gains at the wheel.

[@streetridaz]

Maybe I've heard those statements but my iats are certainly lower than the stock box and I'm love it. Sounds better, flows better and feels better. Glad I did it.

[@MrDaavee]

@@streetridaz your iats might be lower. Doesn't change the fact you didn't gain any power. The ecu detunes itself to stay within its normal operating limits. All you got was noise and a lighter bank account/wallet.

[@streetridaz]

@@MrDaavee That's all I've ever gotten intakes for was the sounds. Thanks for your thoughts but I still don't regret my decision. I'm very happy with it. 👍

[@MrDaavee]

@@streetridaz all that matters I guess. I always looked for best performance for the street/mexican run lol. At the track it doesn't matter as the get taken off and I run a turbo guard or chicken wire.

[@streetridaz]

@@MrDaavee I hear you but Im not out doing mexico runs. I play but it's not all serious like that for me. I want to keep my warranty until 5 years is up and than I'll start modding the car. Until than I wanted the sounds. I love it and it was very worth the money to me. Car feels so much better with it installed. Im happy.
