I agree with above - if it is an option, wait until April for the 2013 (order books open in either November or December). Front and rear redesigns, track app, standard HID's, possibly a little more power (nothing fully confirmed yet). I will end up trading my car in for a 2013 towards the end of...
Manual has been fine for me. I have over 23,000 miles on it. They corrected a clutch pedal flaw early on. The stock trannies have been able to handle major power bumps fine. There are some failures out there, but most have been fine. It is the same tranny that went into the Boss, if that will...
I'll use methanol injection if I must, and get a good tune. I leave those issues to the pro's. FastLane is already increasing boost to 10psi now, and looking at 16psi in the future. They will come up with answers related to detonation...

Some of the Boss-specific parts contributing to the Boss 302 V8’s output and durability include:
Revised composite intake system with shorter runners, inspired by Daytona Prototype racing engines, for high-rpm breathing
Forged aluminum...
This will work well on the Boss coming out soon. With it's forged internals, the boost can be turned up past 10psi most likely (I hope I'm not just being optimistic), and we should see close to 750hp (over 650hp to the wheels). I'm drooling already. I think the GT500 is already obsolete! :D

There are others trickling in. Although the one for the Shelby GT350 will make less horsepower with a lower psi rating (I guess they have to warranty it).
Thanks for your feedback on the review. The ambient colors are a great touch - not cheesy AT ALL, very nice. The cup holder has room, just gets in the way of shifting. At least it keeps me from drinking and eating in the car. The blind spot mirrors are great, but my eyes can only focus on the...
I posted this on another forum. I just wanted to share with you guys, and hopefully help kick-start this new 5.0 section here!
First off, I’ll just say that I love the car, love being in it, cruising, etc. It is everything the magazine reviews have said. I am very happy that I purchased this...
Their numbers are not consistent. It says it will add at least 120hp. They list the engine as 360hp at the wheels, and advertise 530+ hp to the wheels with the turbo kit. To me, it should be at least 170hp. I would consider the kit with 170+ additional hp, but at 120 I would rather go the...
