Project 6: My 15 V6 project

So I am finally creating a build thread to keep all of my mods in order. As some know, performance mods for the 15 V6 are almost not existent aside from a few axlebacks and CAI's. Luckily for us V6 owners most of the major mods like headers and throttle bodies can be carried over from the 11-14 generation. This makes life a little easier on us aside from the minor fabrication some carry over parts require. Below is a list of both my current and planned mods.

Performance
-BBK Shorty headers (Installed 6/16)
-Custom high flow cat quad tip (Planned 2017)
-Custom stainless steel CAI (Installed 2/15 )

-MPT performance tune (Flashed 7/16)
-2014 GT Throttle body (Installed 1/17)
-BMR Motor Mounts .5" Drop (Installed 10/17)
-MMR Lightweight Water Pump Pulley (Installed 10/17)
-3.55 rear end gear swap (Planned 2016-2017)
-Some form of boost! (3.5 ecoboost turbos or custom eaton M90 install) (Planned 2017-early 2018)

Suspension
-GT PP dampers (Installed 9/17)
-GT PP toe links (Installed 9/17)
-GT PP Front Control Arms (Installed 9/17)
-BMR SP080 performance springs (Installed 9/17)
-BMR Cradle lockout (Planned 2017-2018)

Thanks! I figured the V6's should get some attention here as well!

They were not tricky at all! If anything the cup holder was the most difficult install as you have to tap into the auto shifter light circuit.

I finally took the decision to go with a v6 s550 so you are my inspiration LOL Nice build!
