What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[rcald]

Full bath, ready for a So Flo cruise this weekend. Second wash afer using Nexgen Ceramic Spray Wax, just ok. I have the Armor Shield IX kit on the shelf in the garage, going to take the dive and apply soon.

Please please please find a performance shop or other specialist place that mounts tires. DO NOT take those wheels to a chain shop. The 18 year old there WILL yeet your wheels and mar the edges with the tire machine. They will also lazily mount the wheel weights and it will look like complete shit.

And your lugs will get overtorqued as a bonus. I've lived this nightmare on a previous car, I literally watched them drop one of my rims on its face like it was nothing.

how about this one ! yes another Tire chain shop, I brought 2 rims & tires to get mounted, one was right & one wasn’t. I asked the manager what happened ? He tells me that it’s hard to tell when the wheel isn’t on the car, All I could say is ....... REALLY !

Fired mine up this morning, backed her out of the garage and let her idle out in the sunny driveway for 20 minutes. I put some Sta-Bil in the tank of the snowblower and let that run for 3 minutes. Put the snowblower away till next winter season.
Puts a smile on my face knowing the great weather is coming.

Gave the car a nice wash once it warmed up a little outside, then mocked up a little experiment with the (now capped) intake resonator...

Tried this small air cleaner which fit perfectly (and resides *before* the main K&N air filter), trying to impact the exhaust sound a little bit. It definitely changes the note, making it tunable to a degree. Not sure if it's worth pursuing, but it was a fun like project. Cap is back on for now

I’m thinking about taking my little hacksaw to the resonator tube thing. I just don’t want droning. Lol

I get droning on Track exhaust setting, but I have the now removed "blob" set up so I can put it back on if need be. I have to say with the resonator removed it sounds fantastic in Sport exhaust mode with the Airaid and K&N

I cut mine off my 16. No drone at all, and I used a wheel center cap to seal the hole.

I had this little rubber cap that was an exact fit

Shouldn’t it be flush to avoid basically making a mini tube?

Finally got to drive it after 6 months of hibernation in the garage. Fired right up. The weather cooperated today. Sorry no pictures, I was too busy enjoying the drive.

Got some new shoes.

Just put a fancy sticker on airbox, I had a small rattle on the plastic where seatbelt goes into the wall behind driver seat so tossed some dynamat on it.
Thankfully it is very easy to unclip at the door sill.

I checked oil after warm it’s a little below almost directly centered between both circles should I add? and catch can. Barely nothing in catch can 2k miles.
