Pretty sure the factory o2's are narrow bands and not as accurate as a wide band if I'm not mistaken. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. Either way a dedicated wideband to monitor is always a great gauge to have when running a custom tune.

The 2011 uses wideband O2 sensors now.

I think that is pretty cool Ford made it that way, if only they came with a gauge too lol. Oh well, i paid well under $200 shipped so i am not too worried and neither is he.

If all goes well after i get out of class, i will have my Steeda Pentars mounted with my Bfg KDW tires and on my stang (finally after 6+ months of the rims sitting covered in my closet). Once we get his stuff on the car we will have a mini photoshoot of our two stangs.

Since we got coilovers do i definitely need a Panhard bar?? I lowered my 06 GT on 1.5in FRPP springs all around and just did caster/camber plates and everything was fine. He is planning to have his car sit flush as can be without having problems daily driving it.. Somebody let me know what they think.. Also how long should the install take for coilovers? I assume a lot quicker than when i did my springs on my 06. It took us 2 hours and that was with us stopping for lunch.

When i put my sportlines on last week my rear only shifted to the drivers side 1/6 of an inch. every car is different.

Well bad news, a week ago when my buddy had a blow out at around 30mph he nailed a curb and hopped it.. Had it towed to his house b/c the rims cracked... We put the new wheels on today and the front end is fucked.. With the wheel straight, one wheel is perfect looking and the other wheel sticks out like you are turning..

We took it down the block real quick and saw in the passenger side mirror that the rear wheel was wobbling even though it is sitting flush on the hub and it is bolted down tight.. I think he fucked up his axles bad.. Not sure but we are towing it tomorrow morning to Ford to see the real damage =/.. Here are some pictures of the previous rims that were trashed and the new wheels on the car. Didn't bother doing the coilovers b/c the suspension of his car is fucked.
Rear passenger rim...

Then a random shot of my boy driving my stang to his house (i had to borrow my buddies moms mini van to get all the rims/tires to his house. Also brought mine to get mounted and balanced.

Damn! That does suck!

Sound it out Johnny.

Ingurish.

Een-gu-rish!

I don't go back and check grammar either, so I know what you mean. Since I speak English, it's never really a problem.

Just bustin' your balls Sally. Don't get a sandy vag over it.

Yah the worst part is something on the rear end by the brakes/axles that's making a rubbing/grinding.. time will tell on how bad it is.

It won't fit? Man that sucks.. and yes he will be fine driving a fast mustang. He owns a Ducati 749 and a full blown/built GSXR race bike..As for him driving the evo x, that is not his- that is another buddy of ours.

Man i guess that is one less thing to order tomorrow. lol Sucks the manifold wont fit.

Also does anyone have an idea what the max power the stock 5.0 has been putting down? Im reasonably sure that the original fast lane performance mustang was putting down 750-800 at the crank.
