67's and 20psi of Colorado air. I think I have a handle on it now and looking for some decent ET's this weekend..

Do you mind telling me what converter you went with and what it stalls at. Are you using a trans brake and or a 2-step.
These are the next mods on my list and I am only wanting to buy this stuff once.

Duuuude. Gimmie, the new upper and lower grilles look SO good! I am so jealous, I wish '11-12's could get that upper grille :( It looks so damn good. I need.

Trade in your 2011 for a 13/14 auto.... might as well if you are going turbo. You are going turbo... aren't you? :D

If I happen to break the MT82 again, then I will be. I should have done it the 2nd time it screwed up. Yes, I am. On3 kit.

Looks really Good!

Need to black out some of the shiney that's poking thru...

I initially thought that but I kind of like it how it is now!



On another note I just watched the 30 min presser from Ford on the GT350 and that amount of trick shit they put into that car is just stupid.

I think once all the hoopla is over with the initial release and prices come down to normal.... I might have to have one.

damn video took half a day to upload and the quality still came out crappy.... IDK.

Anyway there is some low speed cruising to show drivability... then a 1,2,3 hit getting on the freeway. At the end of the video another 3-4 hit before i shut the gopro down.

Gimmie, what exhaust do you have. It sounds much louder than mine. I thought my setup would be loud but is quite tame. I have running a 3" off road H and MBRP 3" over the axles with their straight through mufflers.

Also I noticed at the :40 mark when you stop at the stop sign there was a slight vibration sound. I too have that sound, it is my driver side down pipe hitting the strut tower. I need to fix it but know it will be a good bit of time to do.

My vibration coming from the steering shaft vs downpipe.

I need to pull it also but don't really feel like doing it lol.

Exhaust is magnaflow ORX, lethal OTA pipes into gt500 mufflers. It's actually REAL quiet.

Have you logged your car? Mine was barely touching it, like barely to the point it would only touch it sometimes. When it did the knock sensors were picking it up at idle and wot( pulling timing wot). Confirmed after I put heat wrap on the shaft it went away. I have since fixed the pipe.

Just a heads up.

Ive had the downpipes wrapped since day one. The vibration isnt bad but its there. After no less than 7 logs sent to Mr. Holmes, knock has never been a real concern.... a little here and there at part throttle which might be the vibration (very rare it happens), but never any at WOT. It actually adds timing at WOT... even with piss 91 octane.

Good stuff, just a heads up for future readers also.


Anyone have friends/co-workers that are not into cars? Lmao they never understand until I take them for a ride. It's just a car until they get out after their first ride, then it's an entirely different story. Most are blown away. Buddy of mine has been bugging me for a ride to see what all the hype was about, he couldn't stop talking about it for about an hour. Now I have this guy is searching the internet for a 15' to boost LOL.
