So I had some Whiteline end links installed. Then went to a group dyno day at Pellegrini Performance Group with a few of the forum members. Their shop was the most beautiful shop I have ever seen in my entire life, just absolutely stunning and immaculate. The guys that work there were great too. It was a great experience and a fun day for sure.

The shots below were taken by @altjx. The dyno was very tight so everyone's numbers were a little lower than usual, but overall it was a fun day. I made 673/519 then made 671/522. The air probably played a slight factor, as well as being at sea level, but overall still solid numbers and look at that torque curve. Beautiful! I posted a compilation video as well of all the cars that were there. Enjoy.

So today I got around to swapping out my TomTop unit for the Moddiction unit and I couldn't be happier with the product. I also moved my nGauge from the ac vent and mounted it on the dash. It's too damn hot down here and I need more air flow. I also purchased Steeda Lower control arm bushings, which should be here later on this week. :cheers:

Just plain amazing... I purchased my first Mustang ever just last December (16 GT Premium) and black just like yours. You have completely inspired me to do so many things to it.

Questions that remain outstanding for me are:

1) Have you tried 20" wheels? Do you feel the 19"s fit the wheel well best?
2) Have you considered brake upgrades?

Again, stellar job Mike!

Thanks man! Never tried 20's I just prefer 19's. I like that the Forgestars are fairly light as well. As for brakes, I think eventually I will make my way to new brakes but not anytime soon. The car has 9,500 miles on it, so no real need to swap brakes yet, but when I do I will probably throw on some Baer's, although again I am not positive yet.

So after months of trying to figure out what was wrong with the car I finally found the issue. The knuckle to toe link bushing is torn and causing the passenger side toe link to move back and forth, which it seems has been causing the rear end to want to move. So I ordered some Ford Performance Knuckle to toe bearings. Hopefully I will have that issue resolved by weeks end. I also have something new coming tomorrow so stay tuned. Yesterday I got to hang out with a few of my buddies from here and of course I forgot my camera but I knew I could count on [MENTION=17459]altjx[/MENTION] to have his. Awesome shots from him yet again! :hail:

Man, I can't get enough of your car! You and [MENTION=16215]SC_Ruby[/MENTION] are killing me lol and without a doubt [MENTION=17459]altjx[/MENTION] has the nicest convertible in my opinion. Some of the nicest people around as well if I do say so myself.

Cant wait for the "something new" either lol

Alton is awesome with the camera!

Rear tire is 305/35/19 and they are flush. They are 19 x 10's.

Thanks man, hopefully I can get some of that stuff going soon, but we will see.

So I have to thank [MENTION=8761]Jmeo[/MENTION] for the inspiration on these new coil covers. I love the way they look and couldn't be happier with them!
