My Competition Orange V8

[stevec]

How is comfort and stiffness compared to stock springs ? Etc

What did u go for ?

Went for Eibach.

I can honestly say that I have noticed nothing negative about the ride but it just feels more solid and precise. I hit a pothole that I always try to avoid yesterday and it was fine.

I really am surprised both of the quality of the ride and how in-obtrusive the exhaust tone is.

The day you don't turn back to look at your car after parking it, is the day you sell. Don't let it happen.

What spacers have you used? Did they fit straight on without modification ? You car has a special place in my heart. It's the reason I ordered one when I saw it at goodwood.

:cheers:

Thanks, nice one. Yeh, I enjoyed Goodwood. It was the first meet I took the car to.

She looks orange!!!

Oh other than that, spacers, lowered springs, splitter now brings out the side skirts you put on it so really makes the car flow throughout.

Good job mate, can't wait to see it at one of the next meets! even though, she'll have probably changed again by then!!!

Great update Steve...enjoyed that. I think if I could have anyone else's s550 for the day, it would be yours! Your careful research & selection of mods is spot on...

Exhaust sounds superb...I actually put my headphones in because I know you get better sound than through laptop speakers; nearly burst my bloody ear drums, you bastard! When I got the volume right, it was a real pleasure to listen to. First thought was that I will be cruising with the windows down on the NC500 run

P.s. :coolphotos:

Yep, looks v nice.

The drop and spacers look really good.

Have you experienced any drone with the Roush exhaust, I'm pleasantly surprised how good it sounded.

It also seems good value per DB compared to cat back exhausts, I don't mind spending the money on a catback, but if like you say, there is no unwanted rasping then I'm interested.

What did you use to record the sound, and do you know what DB it is over stock ?

Also the own a competition orange mustang with black roof, also with Roush axle back - great purchase imho, makes you want to wind the windows down and find a tunnel. Clever how you get zero drone with a proper v8 fanfare when you boot it.

I might have seen your car at the Spring Inn a month or so back, with a load of other mustangs?

What spacers and springs did you go for, what did they cost for fitting etc?

I think you have made my mind up on exhaust now, thanks Steve.
