New Member of the GT350 Group

[TCP24]

Hey Guys,

About 2-3 weeks ago I picked up a 2018 GT350 in Shadow Black. Excited to be part of the GT350 group!

Any recommendations on exhausts? Full/Catted? Res Delete? What are your experiences with yours? Looking to make this thing sound as demonic as possible while retaining the active exhaust feature.

Also, has anyone made the switch to the Steeda Clutch Spring? Is it worth it after getting acclimated to the stock clutch assist spring?

Anyways, here's a picture of the new beast! Any recommendations/advice would be greatly appreciated!

I think the spring is totally worth it. Always felt the factory spring was so soft that you were always guessing where the engagement was. The new spring is a huge improvement and feels heavy, much easier to tell and I can shift much smoother.

Opinions will very, but as I’ve said in another post, anything more than a resonator delete/X pipe swap is messing with perfection.

Black on Black was my second choice. The Black looks So Sinister! Congrats and welcome to the family!

I agree with Jason304. I picked up a new X pipe from a member here for 1/2 price of new. Installed it myself and LOVE it. If you want quiet, you can keep it in normal mode. Sport mode is a whole new experience.

Congrats @TCP24 , a lot of folks are selling their gems. It’s a great time for someone else to possess one and continue the enjoyment.

That is the correct color.

I am thinking on leaving the exhaust as is maybe cut out the res ... But I am thinking about stripe delete. After seeing yours

Honestly aside from a passenger side catch can I think the car is perfect as is unless you are heavily tracking it and want to squeeze every fraction of a second out of it.

Having had 2 close friends work in development of this vehicle, oil seperators and enjoy it!

I did A/O separators, Corsa DX pipe, & an MGW shifter. Oh, and front rokblokz are a must!

Ask your friends why Ford didn’t install separators at the factory. These cars should have come with them. Especially the R.

Thats why I'm sure it was corrected with the 500.

EPA probably does not permit the catch cans to be installed at the factory. Plus they are not warranted parts. That might be a reason too.

I believe you may be right as the 500 handling pack catch cans are for dealer install or owner install in the trunk of the car. That being said, the LT1 has a clean side catch can built in from the factory from GM that drains back and needs no servicing.

OEMs get real touchy about any emissions equipment. I’m hearing now that Ducati dealers will not install or modify exhaust or emissions systems unless they and the updated ECU programs are fully CARB approved in Cali, and other states.
