Good foundation for a build.

Numbers on the fusion?

280WHP/268TQ on 20 PSI and a stock cat back. The car could have been 300whp+ with a bit more aggressive tuning and cat back.

I had very little suspension mods but the car ran a 14.3 at the track (2.7 60', FWD) and trapped 99mph.

What sort of FI are you looking into? Put a 2.9 whipple on my girls car, install was a breeze, and its extremely streetable.

Whipple and ProCharger are on my short list.

I've been debating between the two prior to buying the car.

Hoping for a great Black Friday Sale, I'm really itching to get a Whipple!

Nice start, love those Comp Orange...

Thing is loud I'm thinking I will do a resonator when I finally do headers.

Thank you.

I'm hoping to get a few drive-by/in-car videos before the weather turns here.

I can only drive it for a week more until the salt hits during Thanksgiving it appears so I'll try my best.

The exhaust is LOUD but it does have tone which I like. I have a buddy who live about a mile away from me and if I 1/2 to WOT and he's outside he knows it's my car. So yes, it's loud but it has a distinct tone as well.

That's why I'd highly recommend SW to any 5.0 owner as it's not an exhaust many people get so you know who it is as they're pulling up or driving away!

I really like the spoiler and it would look good black as well as painted. I've got a race red mustang and it's got a little orange in it. Really like the the CO color. I'm a fellow owner from here in Central Ohio!

I'm debating it. Everyone is saying to keep it black too...Hard to decide as I don't want to have to paint it twice.

Black makes it standout but doesn't make it look as OEM flush...I will continue to ponder what I'll do but thank you for the advice!

:cheers::cheers::cheers:

The spoiler is at the paint shop. Still haven't decided on paint yet...
