I've been going between the new GTI with Performance Pack and the Ecoboost Mustang with Performance Pack also. Both are about the same price in base trim but the Recaro's would make the Mustang a little more expensive but not by much.
I was set on Guard after seeing it in person but i've...
Glad i found this link, lots of cool parts i need to check out. I wish we could order EB PP cars with the silver or gunmetal wheels instead of black. I also want the cold air intake and may wait on their tune just for warranty reasons. I like the carbon fiber rear finisher between the tailights...
I couldn't do Yellow or Race Red but pretty much any other color is nice. My current car is black and don't want to do that again. Comp Orange and Guard are my top choices but the blue is growing on me too. I wish we could get the blue that was on the Detroit Auto Show cars!
Here's a nice CF10 in semi-gloss black, 19x10 and 19x11. Not on a mustang but i think it would look great on Comp Orange.

textured gunmetal looks good too, really can't go wrong with any of them. black graphite and piano black are sweet too...
Looking forward to seeing your times, been checking out some Ultimate Racing stuff myself. I want to keep mine quiet so i'm thinking of doing a catted downpipe, their Inlet pipe, and either Ultimate or Full Race intercooler and charge pipe kit. Cobb AP for tuning and that should be enough for...
Thanks for your input, i drove a Premium EB w/PP yesterday and there is a base EB with PP and even a manual trans at another local dealer. It doesn't have the Recaro's but its like $28k, lots of car for the price. I'll probably stick with a base auto EB with the PP and do a tune, springs...
If i get an intake it will definitely be a sealed box design preferably with a dry filter. We don't have a 1/4 mile track close but i would like to run mid 10's in the 1000ft, a 10.7 1000ft comes out to about a 12.9 quarter so should be capable.
Thank you, i like the GTI seats especially with the plaid. I like the recaro's too although i haven't sat in them yet. I'm going to have to drive them back to back, both cars are great and have a lot to offer. I just want to get one i'll be happy with for a long time and not get bored with. I'm...
Thanks for the pic of the Recaro's in cloth. I don't like leather but how is the material on the door panels and such? Also is your radio set up for satellite capability? I don't want to have to get a Premium just for that, i wonder if there will be a way to put an aftermarket radio in it.
I finally got to drive an EB car with PP today and i'm sure most of you are GT owners but it was much better than the non PP car i drove with 20's. The ride was firm but it did feel a little tighter, i do feel like the ride quality could be better though so it will be interesting to see what...
Yeah i like the way 20's look and tires may even be cheaper, i may just plastidip the stock wheels and get some spacers temporarily but i would like to get the weight savings from the TSW eventually.
The downpipe that WMS just posted the video of actually doesn't sound too loud for non catted...
It will be a base car with Recaro's, thinking i will swap out the stock wheels for TSW Bathurst in 19x9 +30 which are 22 pounds each.
Steeda springs for the drop most likely then the tune and intercooler. Downpipe probably last if it needs it, looking forward to seeing how much of a...
Hey guys, looking to order an EB car with Performance Pack soon and trying to get the best gains for my money. I don't want to do add a lot of noise though.
I like the sound of the Stainless Works downpipe with stock cat back. I'm thinking that with a quality intercooler and custom tune from...
Opinions on these TSW sizes and what size tires would you guys recommend? Don't have the car yet but EB PP car with a mild spring drop.
TSW Rouge 19x9.5 +40 square? Not sure what size tires, i don't like the 275/40's i've seen they are too beefy.
TSW Bathurst 20x9 +30 square? They have a +20 i...
I was set on getting Guard if and when i do get a Mustang but the Orange is looking great. I really like the one with the Roush wheels too, just not sure if i would get tired of such a bright color. I've never even had a red car, mostly silver/grey, black or white.
The Comp Orange would...
I love the Orange with the 50 years pack, i just wish on the Ecoboost with PP you could get these wheels when you order that package. I don't like the black wheels as much.
Nice build thread, i'm looking at a PP EB Mustang or a MK7 GTI with their PP also. Price is almost the same when equipped how i want them. I've had more rwd cars than fwd but the new GTI has almost non-existant torque steer and i haven't driven one with the VAQ diff in it yet.
I like both...
Your Mustang looks great, if i get one it will be an EB with performance pack. I'm looking at the new GTI with PP also. I want the TSW Bathursts too.
Your FRS looks familiar, i was JoeBoxer on FT86Club so we have similar taste in cars.
