AFBLUE Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 As many of you already know, many FRPPs are rebadged items made by other companies. For example, the FRPP CAI installed in the Shelby GT is made by the Steeda (or maybe both have the same production source. Also looks like Steeda and FRPP share the same source for these too. Top picture is FRPP's FR3 parts and bottom is Steeda's. FRPP's website says the source for their FR3 dampers is "Dynamic Suspension" The FRPP FR1 muffler kit is made by "Supreme Performance" http://www.ninosport.com/Ford-Racing-Supre...0566-M-5230-GTA Does anybody know who is the original manufactures of the rest of the FR3 parts (lowering springs, sway bars, strut tower brace)? I'm guessing it's Steeda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Eibach does their suspension stuff and the exhaust is Borla. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFBLUE Posted December 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 I had heard that too Wado, but that is not what I found doing research. Exhaust is not Borla but Supreme Performance. http://forums.bradbarnett.net/showpost.php...51&postcount=29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riharely Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 oh crap. I thought I bought a Shelby not a Steeda. dam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFBLUE Posted December 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 I was just informed that the springs and swaybars are marked "Eibach", and the Strut Tower may be Steeda. So in summary: FR1: CAI = Steeda Exhaust = Supreme Performance Maremont brand http://forums.bradbarnett.net/showthread.php?t=56247 FR3: Dampers = Dynamic Suspension (and look just like the Steeda ones) Springs = Eibach Sway bars = Eibach Strut Tower = Steeda???

SGT2666 Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 I bought all my suspension upgrades from Steeda and while I was researching the pieces I saw that Steeda and Ford have a technology sharing agreement. Its one of the reasons I bought the pieces I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pixelsmack Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 Multimatic originally designed and spec'd the dampeners. I know they did the first FR500 car for certain. They are a Canadian company. I am also aware that Ford Racing's own website says another company provides the dampeners now. Which is different from last year. As last year the site did say Multimatic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exhaust is not Borla but Supreme Performance. http://forums.bradbarnett.net/showpost.php...51&postcount=29 I too thought they were Borla!

LuLu Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 Ya'know...When something breaks without explanation (meaning my fault), all I care about is who I call. Right now, it's Shelby, Ford Racing, or, Ford, via my friendly L/M dealer. I really don't care where they bought their sh*t, as long as they replace it when it breaks.
