Last one for tonight... get a black billet grill for the bottom openings from stage 3 for a stealthy approach or leave it open? Could laint something on the bottom saying "got rice?" Or maybe dark_horse.....

Def use some sort of grill for the lower whether it be stock or billet, you dont want anything hitting that IC and putting a hole in it. Then that would be bye-bye boost.

Haha yep I did recognize your car. I live in republic actually and would drive by and wonder if that guy with the stang worked there or just went there a lot lol. Not trying to thread jack but how did you feel with them tuning your car?

They did an alright job I guess. .. The top end was spot on but the driveability seemed a little off

Every time I get close to catching you....this happens. Now I really need the Vortech I keep talking mysel out of. Hopefully you make it back down this spring or summer. I want to see it at ORP. Let me know how you like the Relo brackets. I still haven't put my BMRs on and it is getting too cold to do it.

Mounted the oil filter that way just because it fit nicely there...no real reason I guess

The only spot I'm really worried about dragging is the y pipe area...unless I just flat out run over something and hit the pipes running beneath the a arms

Make sure you jack the y pipe and over axle pipes up as high as they will go/flush up against the car before tigtening other wise gravity will pull them down and they it will all sag.

I actually put some rubber straps on to help hold them up...

All I have left to do is wire up the upgraded wiring kit I got from jeremy and hook up my vacume lines to the wastegage, bov, and boost controller and we are ready for a tune.....any body have a good diagram of how they go?? Any help would be much appreciated...
