Default Hate to say it. . . .

I am not happy with my Mustang what so ever. Everytime I go over a bump the car squeaks, my 600 dollar exhaust sounds like ***, my BBK CAI whistles, traction sucks for RWD, people think I have a fast car (always wanting to race) meanwhile its slow, and driving it isn't a pleasure.

Only thing I like is the way it looks, and the leather interior.

Cech out your shocks/struts. Also, if you wanted a great sounding exhaust you couldve picked out of a million different combos. Thats why you do your research and see what sounds good to you before you buy it. The BBK whistling is normal I think its cool. If you dont like it, you should go back to the stock airbox, then your car will been even slower. As for the traction, learn to launch better and/or get some better tires( drag radials!) Haha ok I think I'm done now, just tryin to help! haha

than get a different car

there are alot of things i dont like about my car, paint is chipped in the front, highish miles, front right suspension squeeks... but something about driving the car makes up for it all and i never think about that stuff when im actualy behind the wheel.

Sounds like your Stang has "bad owner syndrome." [sm=pcwhack.gif]

The exhaust was your choice. A little more research would have gotten the sound you wanted.

You installed the TB. You responsible for the whistle.

Fix the squeak. Mine doesn't squeak. It's not the cars fault it isn't getting the attention it needs.

Traction sucks? Either you have crappy tires or you're a horrible driver. Only 2 options.

Slow? Bad driver mod.

Not pleasurable? Didn't know they were supposed to come with ginas. Maybe you shoulda went for a test drive before spending the money.
