New 50th LE owner

[ecoabe]

Hello from Grand Rapids, Michigan. This is #1676; MT82 with around 4,800 miles. This one began its life in Minnesota and then moved to West Virginia. I picked it up at a Chevy Dealer outside of Baltimore last summer with 573 miles. I have some mods lined up for both performance and aesthetics that are being pieced together for April when the car becomes my summer daily driver again.

Looking forward to poking through the 50th LE threads here

Nice looking car! Love those 50th wheels...

Very nice LE. What mods do you have planned?

Thanks. I think they are the best stock wheel Ford has made on a modern car.

Thanks. I have a full Red Line interior sitting in my living room that I will be installing soon, along with a GT350R Wheel and push button in red to match. Functionally, I am planning on adding the GT350 intake and throttle body, along with Ford Racing's Stage 2 flash tune. I will likely add an exhaust too, but there are so many options that I have not heard in person. Leaning toward the Stainless Works Retro Chambered catback.

Thats a beauty, the Wimbledon White is amazing, the car is fantastic, I bough 1 year ago my no. 1029 with 52 miles on the clock and it filled up with extras 50 year LE stuff, the plastic still on the steering, the different take of before driving still everywhere

My 50 year LE 1029, will just be as it was born, no mods there, if you mods, then its a another Mustang, not a LE, maybe I am old fashioned.

In my mind, the only LE car that shouldn't be touched is 0001 and since that is in Bill Ford's garage, I am going to make my LE my own. Nothing wrong with keeping it stock, nothing wrong with modding it! Our WW cars carry a unique paint that only ~1,000 other modern Mustangs have, along with special wheels, brakes, chrome accents, and the awesome louvered quartered windows.

I did the Power Pack 2 like you are mentioning and it was well worth it. Never regretted it. Makes the car run much better than stock. Had my local dealer install it and retained all the original parts that are now stored in the garage. I feel the only thing needed is a better exhaust, maybe this summer I will get to that...

That's great to hear. I saw on American Muscle (CJPP?) that while red line gains are around 21hp/tq respectively, there are peak gains of around 42hp/tq that will be realized on an every day basis. This combined with an exhaust will round out this package nicely.

I did forget to mention that I upgraded to a Blue filter after the paper one was used up.

Check out the Ford Borla axle backs W/ the Power pack 2. That's what I am working on.

outside... stock... just better tires.

inside? right now i have steeda strut tower brace, irs subframe braces and vertical links, catback, JLT cai and canned sct tune... comming soon: +18 intake manifold, catless LT headers, lund flex tune.

i do want a supercharger eventually and i'm in love with the new cluster... but the new cluster with sync 3 will cost me almost the same as the supercharger lol... but it looks beautiful and updated.
