My first mod will be the driver mod; HPDE passes at Summitt Point.
:thumbsup:

That's my plan to if the tracks are still open. Other than that I will be attempting to remove as much tread as possible as quickly as possible. Maybe go around the corner and see what kind of numbers it makes brand new. So I have some data for the future.

How can you pass an inspection without cats?
There are no emissions by me... probably the same for DivineStrike.

All that's required is "mufflers" ... some people gut theirs and they're still good!
This :thumbsup:

but that won't be for at least a year or two or three, maybe sooner if I talk to my dealer and they're fine with doing warranty work if I mod the exhaust. I might do hi-flow cats, just depends on how well they perform vs how much they cost.

Tint will be the first mod because it is pretty benign (legal tint nothing crazy). Maybe some kind of audio upgrade as well but will be trying to keep the weight down on this build...most I will do is a single small amp setup with upgraded front stage and a sub that I can easily remove from the spare tire area.

Will let all of you early-adopters show me the dyno sheets before going the intake, exhaust, tune route. Also let you all try out the suspension mods and nail down the correct performance setup for wheels/tires. :D

Once I get the car and a bit of $$$$ to play with, going to be adventurous:

Going to add Boss 302 side baffles to the existing exhaust system, fabricating mounts for it and everything.

My favorite-sounding car is definitely the Boss, and I want an S550 to sound like it.

Again, this will be very far down the road but it will be done eventually.. that is, unless aftermarket does it first :thumbsup:

Then, front brake ducting and bracing.... once I have another DD, going to take rear seats out and install rear X-brace (think Boss Laguna Seca). Upgrade brakes, wheels & tires, etc.

Also, may consider de-badging... at least take the side '5.0' emblems off, assuming there aren't body holes (I know '13/'14's have body holes, can't remember if '15's do or not...)

Nothing fun yet
1) The biggest vinyl banner I can find that says "MUSTANG" for the front windshield so people know what it is
2) A huge pair of those "No Fear" eyes for the back
3) Gold chrome wrap
4) Bubb Rubb whistle tips for the exhaust
