Thank you both!

I appreciate the positive comments

I am heading to the drag strip this weekend and I am hoping to get a chance to hit up Cobb in the next 2 weeks for a full custom dyno tune and will post up the results.

I am very happy with the current set-up and enjoying the car immensely as of late!

Beautiful car! I am going through my own "progression" with my car. Fascinating to read about your experience.

Few pics from my trip to Cobb Plano to get my car tuned and the resulting dyno graph:

The car made 533 WTQ and 463 AWHP on their 4 wheel Mustang dyno. The car pulls amazingly and is even more fun to drive. I am extremely happy with the results and think that will be the last of the power adders for awhile. Will just be driving and tracking for awhile until i get to the point where i need some more power to improve lap times (a loooong time away!).

Tragedy!







Parked in an unfamiliar spot this afternoon after lunch and backed over a concrete parking barrier... put car in neutral and noticed i wasn't rolling, i knew i was in trouble... here are the results. Bummed, but what can you do. Removed the lip and will take it to get repaired and repainted this weekend... always annoying when something like that happens and is completely preventable! oh well...

So this happened on Friday on the way to work.





Those are the remnants of my front lip - lol.

Was enjoying a spirited run and came up on a road with an incline a bit fast and the rest is history.

Put the OEM lip on for now, but have ordered a replacement and will get that painted and installed again soon enough...

Luckily, the rear lip was able to be fixed and i installed that this morning.
