What have you done to your MS3 today?

Finished painting my stockers and put them back on... the centercaps are still drying so they're not on yet. Thinking about doing a red stripe around the edge and getting some red lug nuts, or getting some black lug nuts and smoking the reflectors... can't decide yet lol.

Washed my car. Got challenged by a PT cruiser, KIA suv, and Honda accord today (sleeper look FTMW(glare) lol). And patiently waiting for my parts to arrive from PG with no tracking number(cool) lol. It's cool Ken. It's cool. Don't beat me lol.
 
TRS clear Lenses installed. Turned out nicely. Theres a little glare at the top..even tho i painted the shields. I might try to grind them down and paint with flat. But I'm happy that my Stock halogens w/HIDs look so good.

I ran an old tune on a dyno dynamics. Was pushing 265whp 315 wtq. On a dynojet I was at 296whp 338wtq. Strapped it to a mustang yesterday...same tune 230whp 260wtq dynos are so inconsistant its unbelievable. Now with the akuma tune I'm at 249whp 287wtq ona mustang so I'm real curious to see what ridiculous numbers I can put down on a dynojet.

I'm on the stock bpv and its workin great. You only need to go aftermarket once you pass 22psi supposedly

Just think that a dyno number does not mean much for you first time. Your first run is just a baseline, and after you add mods you go from there to see your improvments. But stick with 1 style (mustang or dyno-jet)
 
Just as a reminder make sure you'll check your tire pressure if you guys haven't done so. All four of mines were a bit low.
 
I had the mazdaspeed coilovers installed this past week and I'm glad I went that route. A little less comfort but much better handling.
