crap, I forgot about that, no wonder it was a little longer than the other ones I have.. hmm and DDM doesn't sell H3C that blows, oh well, hopefully things will work out well for a while
and ya you mean another one other than the 2 you already have?? what color, I really really want another spicy eventually, but that can wait, I still plans for a build in the future for this car. (glare)
never said that one.. haha.. plane leaves tomorrow at 6:15am for John Wayne airport in Orange County CA.. picking the car up and driving it through vegas to Ogden UT (just north of SLC) staying there a few days and driving home!! (dark)

is it stock or modded?
its the #935 in my sig.. just a few little things... for now.. hahahaha.. i dont know if i am going to do much to it.. i am really wanting to supercharge or turbo the mustang before i do anything to it
Seafoamed my car through vacuum line and fuel tank. Skipped the crankcase since I have fairly new extended-mileage mobil 1 synthetic in the car and i'm not about to change the oil for the fun of it. I did it at night so it was hard to see what was going on but I saw some smoke (not tons) and it seems to run *a bit* better, but it might be placebo.
I get my Delsing clunk fix today - got new bushings waiting too, so the clunk will be GONE within a few days! Now I just gotta replace those seized front end links and replace my rear brakes. Car might actually handle and brake good once I get done with it

here are the pics of the calipers painted sunset orange metallic, from G2 ,like I said came out more red than I wanted it to, but oh well, next year maybe I will repaint it again, but it looks more orange in person than in these pics.. but here they are..
Use to look like this the duplicolor paint didn't last on there very long, I wouldn't recommend getting it

if you painted over the red, that would probably help explain why it came out more red.

nah, I stripped it almost completely, especially that 1 in the pic, that is the caliper I replaced because the one that was on there was a "reworked" one and it just didn't fit correctly, the lower allen head bolt was too small, so it allowed it to move a little.. which is no good
here are some pics, I accidentally moved this folder into the wrong folder of pics, but found them, this is after the paint cured more. and of the caliper I replaced and the paint can.. lol

No.... these are Delsing brand; someone on the forum was sellin' them used. The GB thread was for AWR brand. I was #5 on that list and keep hoping that it will come back to life!

tuned, catless midpipe, CAI.
May as well up the boost. doesn't bump me up in my autoX class... and hopefully in a couple weeks I'll have the rubber on to maybe be competitive. sorta. a little bit.
OK not really, but I can dream, OK?

I know. I was making a joke on myself. I'm thinking 9 sounds safe, depending on what that spikes to. This is where my peak/hold gauge will come in handy.

yes those do come in pretty handy cuz its kinda hard to watch the road your boost and making sure u don't redline the f outta it haha u can let it spike to maybe 10psi i doubt it'll throw your afr off at all

no wideband, so I'm gonna play it 'relatively' safe and shoot for 9psi with maybe an 11 spike as acceptable. realistically I could blow it up how it is now. but I'll roll what I feel is a relatively safe gamble for the sake of taking advantage of the mods I have, and making a respectable amount of power.
I likely won't dyno it, but I think this realistically puts me in the 200 whp range.
