Got the Borla Atak Catback Active Exhaust installed today. After hearing it in person, none of the Youtube videos I watched did this exhaust proper justice.

The sound clips never do, big reason most use a cell phone for recording. A cell phone will never achieve the dynamic range of the sound, in or out .

That and then they listen to it on a cell phone too. I have yet to ever hear a exhaust clip that sounds like it does in real world.

installed a new set of Pilot Super Sport tires (285/35/20 and 295/35/20) i've had in the garage for 15 months (to replace the current set on my car). thursday evening i got caught in a heavy downpour, slowed to 50 MPH and then hydroplaned at a 20 degree angle for about 100 yards. 2 cars in front of me did the same and both hit the center median wall. i thought the tires that were on my care while driving in the rain tires were in great shape until Discount Tire told me the rears and fronts had 1/32s and 2/32s, respectively. major fail on my part (not to check tires more frequently), i'm embarrassed to admit this, but thankful i'm ok.

I thought super sports had low tread depth by design?

Installed a MMD V series spoiler wing in black to replace the factory PP wing. The adhesive material on the factory spoiler was failing, the gap was visible, and I really didn’t like how much back and forth play there was. The MMD is rock solid and looks awesome. Took her for a wash afterwards....

Damn, sorry to read this.. I did the same with a vet in 70. My mistake was mixing radials and bias ply tires ...

1/32s and 2/32s, I take it this was what was left of the tread life?

??? New PSS tires have a tread depth of 7/32 to 10/32 (based on version). How could your “new” tires have virtually no tread depth left. And if they actually had this tread depth why would you put them on your car?

Dropped it off to get a puddle lamp fixed, track pack and power pack 3 installed. Also ordered a Roush h-pipe and gloss black badging.

Hi All:
Loaded the latest Whipple tune. Went for a ride. Holy Sh*t! Ran super strong. I also added during the last year but didn't post....the fuel door, Wet Okole's and the GT350 Track Pack spoiler. I also installed the Ford performance by Borla touring exhaust to quiet the pony down. I like sleepers, no one needs to know what's under the hood unless I want them to. It needs a good wash and detail in the next few days.

Nice mustang. But I like that Marauder in the background. Too bad they don’t make the panther cars anymore. I would buy one again in a heartbeat.

That is my DD. I have winter tires and all season tires for the other 3 seasons mounted on steel cop car rims. With the limited slip rear and Scorpion ice and snow tires it really goes in snow until it is bumper deep. It still looks good considering it never was garaged.
