What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[DeadBroke3.7]

THats neat, how did you do it?


With this purchased from Walmart. Removed plastic shielding under car to gain access to backside of bumper and attached it there. Searched around wiring for a key on circuit and tapped into it. NO trouble from law enforcement yet. Lol

Today I replaced my GT350 trackpack winged trunk lid with a sleek "wingless" trunk lid. I like the smooth clean look.

Finally pulled this bugger out!

So I finally got to do a decent test drive today. Wow! it is noticeably louder in Track Mode WOT! Whoo! Sounds like a stock car (sorta, with the top down).

What surprised me was I think there is a noticeable power increase. At least from my calibrated butt-dyno. Really got my pulse up!

There is some droning that wasn't there before but it was not unpleasant.

Sure, it could have been the bitchen sound, but I am factoring that out in my assessment!

Would I do it again? Absolutely.

I have the dyno numbers on my work pc for the Steeda H and I’m pretty sure it gained high teens of torque in the lower rpm range (lost a few bhp near the top)

For some odd reason, guys become distracted with matching hand gestures when talking in a group. So I just pay attention to the most popular gesture/motion in use, employ said gesture, and then I become one of them

Pocket pool?

Picked the 350R brace up from the powder coaters :

Still not sure what to do with the plaque … ? I have a few ideas but as it now screws on, I suspect it’s something that may get altered / updated over time :

Really pleased I put the time into prepping the metal and dressing the welds up :

The finished RHD modification to alleviate the use of 8mm spacers to clear the cowl brace. This will now lower the brace on the studs, hopefully allowing for full thread engagement of the nyloc’s :

I avoided those decisions by having the holes filled with weld before finishing. Don't put advertising back on. Make something custom.

Added another project to the list...

Why do I get the feeling you aren't super familiar with the wife loves husband relationship?

love comes in all forms. Sometimes to knock off a rough edge or two heavy machinery is called for.

Nice engine bay. I thought you guys got a 5w-20 oil fill cap. Ours in Oz came with a 5w-20 cap but our oil spec is 5w-30.

I am 99.2% sure you are kidding. Not sure what a rough edge is though. Is that like a symbolic edge?

I find it hard to get photos of the S550 front that I like. This one is pretty good in my opinion.

I think it is missing something.
