Let's see some of that custom work!

The exhaust flows pretty well. The car makes 574 rwhp with a 2.3 Whipple at 13psi on 91 octane. The mufflers are all magnaflow. The piping is all 2.5" stainless steel. I built the exhaust to keep the car quiet and reduce droning. It works fairly well. Very little drone and the volume is close to stock but with a much deeper tone. The intake can still be seen a bit. The coating on the intake is to help make the killer chiller more efficient. The bumper looks much better in person. I thought it looked a bit off in pics also. Then I saw one in person and it looks very clean and finished. The side reflectors are also shaved off.

NOW IT MAKES SENSE you did it for sound ./ drone more less then power, yeah im sure its quiet and wow yeah thats really good numbers for only 13psi on pump gas, but imagine the gaines on normal 15-20psi boost with 93 octane and long tubes and diffrent exaust hahaha holY HELL! lol

fixed...mods why every time i post this keeps doing a double post posts same thing i say 2x and i only hit it one time.

They look good, mind sharing your measurements? Lol

Haha sorry don't remember them anymore, this was done over a year ago. Basically you have to find where you are going to mount the pins first (usually the bump stop locations) then mark the underside of the hood and start drilling! These mounts require a lot of fiberglass removal, especially for the backing plate on the underside. Here's the link to their website:

That's really trick like it, gotta say I have not seen that done before way to think out of the box.

Thanks! I've seen two other mustangs with them now but still rare.

Those hood latches are nice. Great job with the measurements and install. Looks very professional.

My intake manifold is ported also. The ceramic coating helps by reducing the heat absorbed from the motor into the manifold. The killer chiller it's self won't add power. It gives you the option to add more timing due to a colder intake charge. The additional timing will increase hp. I use it as a small bit of detonation insurance when I hit the road course every once in a while.

I would jump at the chance to run better fuel and long tubes but I live in Ca where the smog Nazi world headquarters resides. Lol!

Was kinda thinking heat absorb. How did you do the by pass valves?

That's awesome who did you have do the work blkgt500? Have some things to get powder coated but he's a tuff guy to communicate with. Undecided on hydrodipped can it scratch/flake off easy?

I actually used a company local to me in Colorado springs, K&T hydrographics. He cleaned them up, primered, painted, dipped then clear coat, seems very durable

Nobody notices these but I love them

My favorite work I have done so far for me has been the retrofit projector headlights.

 

[CSCOBRA03]

I made a diffuser

Here is a photo of a diffuser I made for my cobra. I'm currently working on a newer more visible design.

That's interesting do you have a closer up pic from behind?

I'm not sure this is much better and my new one has fins that are 1 inch longer but I don't have a photo of that yet.

Like it similar to a saleen, how are they attached?

 

[Dalton_ray]

Didn't do anything to custom..

Finished my SRA swap, installed my hydro dipped radiator cover and expansion tanks, think it blends in perfect and looks killer with my matching nitrous bottle

Just got the motor dropped in the car a couple nights ago!! Hopefully I can have it fired up within the next few days! I can't wait. I did all the paint work myself.

 

[weaselp1]

Yeah the forum has been acting up for a lot of people the last couple days. Here's a closeup of the latch:

Did you use the hood bumpstops to use at the latching point in the engine bay? Would love to see under the hood if you have pics.

Thanks!

That's a different color what's it called? Looks like you did a good job.
