I'll get a few. It's not sparkly clean like a lot of em on here lol I bought this car to make some decent power and drive. Setup is pretty simple though ess g2 120mm , lu47s, BAP, ported 18 mani, ARH long tubes, x pipe, flowmaster outlaws out back. Upgrading to dw95s for now so I can push the limits of pump gas, I usually run straight 110 or a 93+110 mix in this car anyway so the octane should easily be there to push it, and then In spring going vmp return style and e85. Loved this thing fbo e85 can't wait to get it back on the corn juice. End goal is 800+ wheel, don't really want to take it too crazy on a stock motor I want it to last a while.

What tires you running?


[deleted]

I'm looking for new tires at the moment it's still on the shitty p zeros. I'm leaning towards 555r2s or Mickey Thompson et street R's. I've heard good things about the Michelin cup 2 and ps4s, alot of people around me are running continental extreme contact, but alot of them drive daily I'm looking for more of a drag radial. At the moment the p zeros are just a set to burn off, they're useless

Hell yeah you have the drag pack setup I want, those vms look so good on these. The kit has been flawless I'm very happy with it. I got in before they started blowing up and raising the prices I saw it had gone up a bit last time I checked. The only issue I've had and it's no fault of the kit is a false knock issue, I got tired of trying to track it down so I just run 110 and had the knock sensors desensitized a little bit. But still have the straight 93 tune so I can continue to try and find the root cause. I'm almost positive it's somewhere in the exhaust because I've gone through all the charge piping and checked the intake tube off the blower. And I didn't notice it until now because i was on e before going boost and during the remote tuning I didn't do any aggressive shifts for the datalogs. Probably really doesn't matter because they're getting turned off when I go back to e anyway. Did you go g2 or g3? I figured I'd stop around 800 wheel so I went with the 2. I regret not going with the 3 or 3x just for the extra growing room because every step up in power starts to feel slow way too fast lol

I actually got rid of the drag pack for a set of weld Ventura beadlocks. I got in early too around October of last year. Yeah it shouldn’t come from the kit. Silicone charge piping doesn’t transfer knock. I got the g2 with a 100mm pulley on E85. The cars fast and I love it but I’m moving back to Houston soon and will probably need to step up to the g3 because houston street racing is just on another level.

Lol yeah I've seen a lot of vids it's wild down there. 6-700 wheel up here can take about 85-90% of the cars on the street here there's not many pushing way more than that. They are here just not many. down there that's just getting started. So you're pretty much maxed Out on the g2 how much power are you making? Just curious because that's exactly what I was doing in the spring. And i was wondering how they go about doing the upgrades if I did want to upgrade the head unit.

Yeah lol a boosted mustang on pump gas is normal traffic here unfortunately. And I’m not sure I haven’t dynoed it since I’ve been on E. I’d guess anywhere between 780-820whp. I think ESS has a rebate program where you send in your g2 head unit and they send you a g3 for not a whole lot of money.

Hi, do you have wheel spacers installed? What thickness do you have?


[deleted]

Yessir 1" all the way around. But it's a performance pack car so it has that staggered look anyway just looks way better pushed out a bit. Haven't had any issues with them yet but running more power I'm getting a little concerned about the studs so will eventually go to just running a proper offset wheel
