What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[DeepakGTCS]

American muscle 19x10 pp wheels with nitto 305/35/19 on the rear mounted up with stock front with spacers.

Also gave it a wash

Wire-tied my Ronin drain plug.
I feel I may be solving a problem that doesn't exist.

Added second layer of exhaust wrap over the old layer. It also reaches further forward and back on the pipes.

Honest question, not trying to be funny at all. But why do you wrap your pipes? Is there a benefit to it being that its under the car

cutting wAY down on radiant heat migrating to the rear diff which has VERY shitty cooling.

Thanks for that answer...

I saw on your pic that you got some temperature stickers on the rear diff. Did you see a huge difference with/without wrapping the pipes ?

Uploaded a tune from Daryle @ Wengerd a couple weeks ago and finally, I guess, actually laid into it yesterday. Was chirping tires while shifting on the 93 tune, so that's a fun new thing that's happened.

Day #3 without my Mustang.

But she did send me some pictures of herself getting all cleaned up at the spa. Still waiting on the stripes and PPF.

My starter Mustang was 2016 non-PP and did not have the Ford wired temp sensor on the 3.15 diff. I wrapped the exhaust and put on the stickers before I went to the track. Also put in 140wt gear oil.

I traded that car for my current 2019 PP. I moved the wrap and stickers over to the 3.55 Torsen diff.

In six track days the diffs never exceeded 260F.

None of this is needed for a non-track car.

You may want to actually see how to safety wire (lockwire, we call it in the military)

What you've done will likely work, but is far from optimal.

We called it safety wire in the Navy. At least everyone I know did. His should be called scary wire. The pliers are even called safety wire.

Did my second mod today. Ordered a new blacked out pony for the grill and 5.0 badges using my Ford Pass points from the purchase at the dealer. I got them installed this evening. Looks much better, chrome doesn't belong with this paint color IMHO. Getting the Ford Performance Blacked out trunk panel tomorrow, hope to get it installed soon.

Added a roush rear diffuser. And took my exhaust a full 3 inches to the axles. Corsa active axlebacks will be picked up after mustang week late this month.
