What did you do to your S650 Mustang today?? 🙋🏻‍♂️

[DHGOOD]

Yes, 1-7/8 with the performance connection pipes through a Corsa Resonated Double H 3' all the way out.
I was going to do a 2' setup, but my tuner advised me that the 1-7/8 would be more than enough.

I bought the same headers expected here tomorrow. I have just an H-pipe and AE - I’ll probably have to run in quiet mode. Is install a pain? Do you smell the exhaust any without the cats? Any CEL?

With the setup I have, it does not drone into the vehicle; it has a low tone, and it rumbles out as the RPMs climb. In quiet mode, it is actually quiet. Normal, Sport, and Track all sound great, and you can tell the difference. That is why I purchased the resonator version; it is just the correct amount of loud.

I do not smell anything in the car. I run 93 all the time. I do not have an E85 tune.

Dropped the motor; it was all on the K-member. As you can see, I have a full road race Steeda K member. This was done because I was doing the oil pump and sprocket gears as well. Doing it this way, of course, makes getting the headers in way easier.

I had Infinite Performance of Miami do this work. No way I would tackle the OPG setup.

I also did one more thing: finished up the hood pin installation. So now I have a similar setup as a GT500. I needed to get this done as I have the GT4 CF hood, and I did not want to risk it coming undone at high speed. Though the latch is stable, this added protection is necessary.

Ended up giving her a bath this week. Black is so hard to keep clean

What do you expect out of the Road race Steeda K member?

What do you expect out of the Road Race Steeda K member?

Weight, stability, rigidity. All of it adds up when combined with the other component pieces. Also, having the K member provides more space for other items. The race oil pan fits a lot better with this setup.

You can see the undercarriage pinning in the pic I posted.

Shamefully copied the radiator cover dress-up from @exm, just waiting for Anchor to call me about the 3 covers.
In another move, I received my center speaker, installing it now.

Emailed the Texas DMV about possibly having my car bought back by Ford under the Lemon Law. It's been sitting in the dealer parking lot for 30 days now waiting on supposedly back ordered motor mounts with no ETA in sight.

I finished up a few things I had over at Anchor for my rad cover plates. Oh...they are going to be NICE!

Also, my custom Floor mats should show up today, so I will put those in.

Wife partially ran over one of the bikes in the garage yesterday with her Mustang. Just a small scratch at the bottom leading edge of the front fender and a matching scratch on the front splitter/air dam. Bike's front wheel is bent almost 90 degrees and I think the fork is twisted a little. It was one of the kid's bikes that they never use and was moved so an electrician could install a sub-panel for our soon-to-be delivered hot tub.

Today I took out my upgraded Pioneer sub and replaced it with a Hifonics sub which is a much better match for the stock B&O system. The difference was extremely dramatic and highly recommend this sub. It's worth the $49. Swap took 15 minutes. Just get blade connectors or solder.

Sub is 200W RMS and 86 db sensitivity which really is a near perfect match since further research showed the stock amp only allocates about 100W to the sub.

MUCH improved bass response and so much louder!!!! Happy I did it and finally got it right.

I had posted in another thread, but I will drop it here as well. Installed the Witamats Galaxy-style mats in the Warhorse. Came out nice. The mats were much thicker and more premium than I thought they would be. Really impressed with the quality and craftsmanship.

Took mine into the dealership for an alignment after the new lowering springs were put on.....

.... Ford ended up pushing an update to my my BCM? PCM? Whatever it was and bricked the car.

So what should have been a short tour ended up being an overnight stay at the dealership.

Whipple sent them a new tune and instructions and the dealership will attempt to load into the car tomorrow.

First World Problems, am I right?

Picked up the Dark Horse and drove her home. The new tune that Whipple sent feels a little less "pop pop pop" on deceleration but other than that seems to drive fine.

Then walked the 3.5km back to the dealership and grabbed my winter beater and drove it home before they closed.

Tomorrow it will be time to wake up at like 0630 and give her a good wash since she got rained on. Gotta get her Car Show ready for this weekend's "Mustangs and Mustangs" (cars and planes) at a "local" airport (local being 3 hours away).

My excitement for the day with the car was getting a second fob programmed. When I bought the car used the car dealer only had one fob. Didn't think much about it but when I got home and looked in the glove box there was a fob hard key blank. I tried the key that came with the fob and the damn thing did not work on the door, only on the glove box. So to get the spare fob programmed and to cut two keys with a mobile tech was 250 bucks + 85 buck for the new fob from north coast keyless. One thing he did mention was that in my car the indent to program the fob was not the correct spot, it was forward of the indent right on the edge of the bottom of the console. Not much of a difference but enough for the fob not to program in the indent.
