Today I installed my new Aeroforce Interceptor gauge and the Roush vent pod

Now you know what I do every day that I go to work.

What did you record it with? Sounds really good Gabe

Lol ... thanks man ... as far as what I recorded with, my new Motorola Razr Maxx phone

1080p HD video ... amazing for a phone

I will try to get one of my car if I can. Ramp has a lot of turns, and holding a camera, shifting and turning might be a bit much lol.

 

[stang8psi]

sounds like you have problems driving! I usually ask people if they just reacently got a manual car when they drive through parking structures like that lol.

 

[TenSpeed]

I do it to see how sensitive some car alarms are. Usually get at least one to start singing.

Today I placed another order with Hypermotive

- Steeda 555-4098 upper control arm for lowered 11-14 cars
- Steeda 555-4096 upper control arm for lowered 05-09 cars for the GF's '08 Shelby
- Redline Tuning all-black no-drill hood strut kits for both cars
- Speed of Sound dual-gauge a-pillar for my car
- Speed of Sound triple-gauge a-pillar for her Shelby

Also ordered the Ford Racing rear bump stop kit, this one from Autonation Ford, for almost $25 shipped, better by a few dollars than what anybody else could've done it for.

Still looking for gauges.
She wants A/F ratio, Boost, and oil psi
I want Boost and oil psi.
I already am getting A/F ratio readout via the Aeroforce, and on a recent WOT pull through 3rd and 4th gears it was right at 12.4-12.5

Me too, lol

Progress continues ... Heat exchanger installed, all the wiring got done, the coolant pump is installed, and a few other small items.

Working slowly but since I'm a "better safe than sorry" guy anyway, I'm totally ok with that.

 

[Gabe]

Last night's Whipple-install progress:

the lower manifold/intercooler assembly is installed, timing cover grinding done, pulley bracket installed, and a few other smaller items done:

Today, she fired up, supercharged for the first time
