Finally getting around to modding the ST so I started with new wheels. They are Fifteen52 Tarmac wheels in 17x7.5. I really wanted silver wheels and in the pictures these looked like a lighter grey so I pulled the trigger and they ended up being metallic gunmetal. So without light on them they are really dark but with light they are much lighter which I like. May end up painting them a true silver metallic down the road at some point. Probably going to lower it a little next and then do some engine mods to get up closer to 300whp. Still my daily and want to keep it that way but itching to mod something and I need something with more power.

Can she get to 300 on the stock turbo or is an upgrade part of your plan? Ours (gf's technically) is a full bolt-on machine on 93 that made 211/270 on a Mustang dyno. Even on E85 I don't think that little pea shooter has enough breath to make it passed 250whp. Our tuner thinks he can get it to 300wtq pretty easily, though.

I think 315whp is max on the fuel system and I'm not sure on the turbo but an upgrade is not out of the questions considering a decent upgrade doesn't cost much more than these wheels do and a really good upgrade, good for 400-500whp is only like $2300. Parts are just so cheap for these.

How many miles on your ST?

Nice! Are you going with a tune?

It's got a little over 55k on it at the moment. I'm probably going to do a bulk purchase at some point and pick up the intercooler, intake, tuner, downpipe, and maybe exhaust also but I've read these don't really need catbacks or you dont get much from them.

I am jealous as a mother ****er of your setup there!

Ha ha thanks man. The setup still needs a TON of work and the lift gets the car just over 5’ in the air because I have a 10’ ceiling but all in all it’s pretty awesome. Now if only all my parts were here during this shutdown I’d get the freaking car back together
