Took mine to a dyno session at a charity event and found out that my 1 week old, bone stock car is putting down 375 HP and 361 TQ. I'm pretty happy with that.

Just picked up Koni Oranges, Steeda Sport springs, GT500 strut mounts and J&M LCAs. Got the car on stands now.

Added the Hellion turbo to my 3.7. Took a week of data logging to get Blow By Racing to get the tune correct, despite the advertised "100% complete with full ECU recalibration" from Hellion.

But after doing some test drives on it the engine started to "tick". For some reason the intake valve on the passenger side, furthest back, is sticking causing a sound like a lifter (V6 doesn't have lifters, the cam lobe pushes the valve directly through a bucket set up) So we need to figure out the reason for the sticky valve now, but no indication of a bent valve.

Ordered a Roush Axle Back today. Should be here in a couple days. I'm SLIGHTLY worried that it'll be too aggressive sounding, but I've read so many reviews and watch SO many YouTube exhaust clips, I finally (well, I just bought it a week ago today) decided to pull the trigger. Can't wait to get it installed.

Thanks. I was very happy with the results. If you factor a 15% drivetrain loss for the 6M, that works out to 441 flywheel HP, bone stock!

I just had an MGW shifter installed in my 2014 Mustang GT. The improvement is just so
awesome compared to the M82 shifter. It cost me about $600 but worth every cent.
The new shifter is an excellent piece of engineering!

I didn't either. More info would be great, provided you have it lol.
I just installed my Koni's, SR Springs, and GT500 mounts with friend and it took us 3 hours total, including all prep and stuff.

that's nice. Not knowing much about installing parts and what not, it seemed quite easy watching and helping.

Right... As someone mentioned on my other thread, the CJ pony video really helped and what convinced to do it myself versus a shop. It was cake.

Drive to school and back, and swung the back end out on a turn, that was crazy, and fun.
