Drove it hard for only 3-4 miles. Took a pic after is had dropped back down a little. I cannot imagine what a track day would do. I need install some coolers.

[MENTION=33250]aclosedmind[/MENTION] Nice mods! Do you like the new driveshaft? Any vibration?
I'll let you know when it gets installed in 12 days ;) At the moment its sitting in the garage, vibration free! :D

Ooops, thought you already had it installed. Been shopping for one and I've noticed a few have complained about vibration. Interested to hear if you have any once you have a chance to give it a go.
I may have posted prematurely. Happens as you get older ;)

In my searches I found that MOST people have problems with aluminum driveshafts due to harmonics at certain speeds. Beyond that, I've also heard a number of issues with carbon fiber shafts from Driveshaft Shop. I haven't seen the same issues with QA1 but theres only one way to find out...

Like the look a lot, just ordered this after reading your post! Also just ordered these too. https://www.steeda.com/steeda-s550-mustang-pedal-kit-manual-2015-555-1270.html
These all look like wet shoes could lead to a problem. Especially with a clutch.

They don't really cause any issues with wet shoes. I've had them for about two years in Florida's year-round rains. I also have the all weather floor mats, so my shoes don't just get wiped dry either.

I drove my Mustang over to Tesla Motors to check out one of their new cars still in the shipping wrap 30 minutes before they open (yes they are open on a Sunday). I’m still there now. The only problem with this car is that it costs 193,000 dollars. And yes Teslas actually have window stickers. Another cool thing is the Tesla charging pumps. A row of them as I see them now. A really cool place!
