Nice ride indeed looks good and I'm on the fence of getting a eco boost or a v6 15 model. Budget can't really afford the GT yet lol but I like the way yours look. And I have a 07 GT as well.

Very Nice!

Thanks guys.

There were some smoking deals on V6, but the interior was not to my liking.

Had the BOV installed. Zero improvement over stock. Did 4 runs stock and 4 runs new BOV. It is quite a bit louder than stock. It is definitely a more solid piece than the stock BOV.

So it's an aesthetic piece. Like altezza tail lights. :p

I am surprised you bought this as there has been a lot of people doing this and reporting zero gains, nothing more than a noise maker.

Mostly, I was curious. The stock BOV really is the cheapest part that got the job done when you hold it in your hand. I'll drive it a while and see if the BOV operating bothers me. My 08 has somewhat desensitized me with noise.

The Ecoboost is clearly the superior car. Especially with the manual trans and bigger brakes and wheels. Personally, as far as the S550 goes, I definitely prefer it over the GT.

Manual tranny is junk, the 6R80 is superior in every way.

I'm sorry, I thought this was America.
