Oh and I remember some people were wondering about the Sickspeed dress up bolts...

Some pics below, for the price, awesome, I just have to find more screws/bolts to replace so I can use all 10 I bought lol

Looking good. I think I want some red engine bay dress up bolts as well. I have seen a couple different styles on Ebay.

That looks great man! :tup: I've been really wanting to put some red in my engine bay lately and have been bumming about the statement that red silicone fades to pink. :(

But anywho, you're bay is looking :yum:

Thanks guys!

Ya, I was thinking about red hoses too but worried about the fade. I hear the Samco and Z1 hoses hold colour well though!

Your car is looking really good! Me likey :tup:

So nothing really new, althought I bought an INGS+1 replica lip as I'm not sure it will last more than a day but I figured what the heck, I have to try lol. I'll take a picture of a test fit this week.

Still have to install my ART Pipes, i'll get around to that in June (after vacation) then right after a tune! Can't wait for that

For now, I have some rolling shots! :driving:

Nice rolling shots TGO! The second one is my fav!

I see you drive with your elbow propped up on the sill, eh? I used to do that until I saw it made a slight divot on the material. Although it snaps right back, for the time being, I worried one day it wouldn't. :)

Thanks Happy!

Ya, I noticed the elbow/divot thing too lol. So not a fan either, worried it might wear out the material...but its so comfy! So where do you leave your arm now?:icon17:

I guess you can straight arm like a cool guy or when i'm in traffic i have my arm in my lap holding the bottom of the steering wheel

Small Update

- Finally got my ART pipes installed. Love them! Low end torque is back and I can actually get the back loose in 2nd with VDC ON! lol, which is nice. :) I think I am getting some deceleration hiss though. Sounds as if I have bad brakes, but its not when I brake

- Had the car Uprev tuned on Monday at Johnny's Motorsport's to get the mods working well together, car was running rich for sure. We brought it down to 12.7 and advanced timing. He also did a few other things that now let me chirp the tires in 1st and 2nd, heck, he chirped it on the dyno which made me smile

This is the baseline...it was 222 TQ, nice and flat line, so torque everywhere....I went there with 91 octane which was dumb, should have went with 94 to get the best possible tune. I have a few Maps, 91, 94, Valet (Car won't go above 3K) and a Launch Control which is nice for the drag strip.

Will go back with 94 and a cold car to see what my gains really were, after 3 hrs, car was heat soaked, even with letting it cool down for 30 minutes in-between. Also Mustang dyno is a little more stingy on numbers compared to a dynojet. I'm expecting another 15HP when I go back

didnt want to go any higher than 6500 rpm ???

I've forced myself to just rest it on the armrest or in my lap instead of up on the sill. I also do the left-handed gangsta lean if I'm feeling feisty! :tup:

Ya a few people asked that, Could have went to 7200 and I would have seen more power. Seeing 270 as a baseline would have been more satisfying than seeing 260. Johnny didn't want to push it to much

I think we'll go higher when I go back with 94.

Small update, nothing too crazy.

I haven't gone back for the re-tune yet, 2 weeks I think

I have decided to install my INGs+1 Replica lip...I realized I need it to even out the look. No mounting holes per most reps so will need some work aka extra $$$ plus paint

Picked up a nice HJC helmet for Time Attack. Hopefully I use it a few times before the season is over lol
