2006 4.0L V6 5speed to 6speed swap

Get a two speed axle ForTheWin.
Or buy a GT500 to get the 6 speed.
Its just not worth it.
Computerized and such.
Search '5 speed to 6 speed' and read the posts about it.
I would be wantin to get a rear sway bar under there before a Tranny Swap.
Start little and reap the rewards.

Like they said above, you would be better off buying a used GT500 or wait until the 2011 V6 comes out. The cost difference and labor would be about the same. With the 2011 you would have a new factory warranty to boot.

Hey
Fair enough, I appreciate the info, and I have been researching 13 to 14 hours a day, everyday for the last 2 weeks on what I'm going to do to my mustang. Body kit, wheels, supercharger, cry02 kit, nos kit, anything and everything I would or could potentially do, and I have a friend that bought a 2007 gt500 yesterday, and has the 6speed, so I thought, maybe I can just do a swap on my mustang into a 6speed.

I second what he said! Nice Pony actually developed the adapter and quite fankly is an expert on it. There are more and more doing that very swap but yes it's expensive....
