Quick clip of the now catless sheps5.0. It's rather beastly now.

Thats going to drive you mad ! I guess there will be so much resonating through the interior, you will need to use ear plugs !

and shoot me down in flames, but as i understand it, there should be a certain amount of back pressure in an exhaust system....sounds like a world of grief might be upon you..

Nice gains Steve.

The power (290hp) reported for MY18 is not more of an honest and realistic number by Ford. They had to reduce power on the EcoBoost to meet European emission standards. So if a stock 2015-17 EcoBoost shows 275hp on a Maha, then the 2018 EcoBoost would show 245-250hp on the same dyno.

What'd I just say??? ;)

they've not reduced the power, they've just changed the list figure, the engines the same, everything else is the same. It's a bit of corporate tomfoolery ;)!

It's been loud as hell all year. Yes it is louder now the cats are gone but only when I tap the right pedal. I can cruise along nicely un-noticed to be honest. But I love it loud and it doesn't bother me one bit. I drove it 4.5 hours home Wednesday night and apart from the detours and fog loved every minute of it.

Busy day today..... fitting quad tips but not standard GT350...modded Borla instead



Also modifying my Centre Borla resonator with a top secret mod..... if it doesn’t work out I’ve got a spare to chuck on, so no risk



Getting ready to cut bumper:eyebulge::eyebulge:

Ooh, much more interesting than "removed a bit and painted it black" ;)
Is it an oil slick/smokescreen device for ass-whupping Jags on the drag strip?
Looking forward to seeing/hearing the outcome

Well the Borla tips idea isn’t working out, so we’re sticking with the GT350 tips that are built into the valance

[MENTION=13920]Enoch[/MENTION] did you open it and remove all the reverb lines lol ;)?

Nice to know the tips don't work. Bit of a pest. As most are aware i'm looking at cutting my MF tips off and Y piping post muffler into the 350 valance once completed (painted obviously [MENTION=14613]SteveS[/MENTION] ;) )

The tips “could” work, but it’s a hell of a fiddly job, so I decided the effort wasn’t worth the outcome..:(

Front bumper off.... and 50th anniversary grill fitted

Suits you sir!

Little international drive today, across the border fromThe Netherlands into Belgium. Found a cool bridge and stopped to take a pic

Uploaded the ghost cam tune onto it today. My god this sounds sexy as hell.
