Well everyone, I've hinted on a few posts of my 2015 CO Mustang GT build. Here is a link that gives you a preview of my car. The car is a few days from getting to Oxnard California home of Vortech Superchargers. Let me know what you guys thank.
A big shout out to Bowen's Garage (Jonb347) Ford for having the absolute best customer service and for busting his butt to get the car out of Flat Rock so fast.

Thanks Jon for everything!

THE STORY
I have been out of the racing scene for quite some time. After retiring from the Army I had a lot of therapy and hospital care to go through. So between that and work it took up most of my time. Not a day went by that I did not think about getting back into a car in looking at the clouds as a tree turns green.
So as soon as the 2015 Mustang was unveiled December 5th 2013 I called Bowen's Garage in Eastford Connecticut. I spoke with Jon Bowen (aka jonb347).
John immediately began to display his willingness to help and have a high level of customer service. He put me on a order list to make sure I was given the opportunity to order the S550 asap. On the morning of May 20th as soon as the order banks came open, he put my order in exactly how I wanted it.
I emailed a few power adder companies about helping me go through this build. I was initially going to look for a beta program. Quite a few responded. I received an email from Vortech subsequently expressing interest in building a beta program for the 2015 Mustang GT. Once Neil Tjin stepped in SEMA became a priority.
The car will arrive in a few days to Oxnard California to begin its transformation from an S550 to an S550 on steroids.
The car will be used as a daily driver. The car will also be used to go to various veterans organizations and ceremonies. I am a veteran service volunteer in the state of Massachusetts. I am going to be working with Wounded Warrior Project to set up track thrill days fir disabled veterans to get a taste of speed and excitement with hugh end sports cars as well as purpose built race cars.
