LOL I felt like a total dumbass for not even noticing. In my defense - I don't think it would make a difference with these tires since I don't intend to ever drive in the rain, but not taking any chances.

I know with the rag slicks we switch them side to side every 10 runs. Not sure about the radials

Mounted my interior go-pro with a pretty good view I think:



Then I installed and wired up my Innovate dual wideband (one for each header):



Then 3 weeks ago I put on some 315 Pro Drag Radials. There is something wrong below which I have already fixed.....

The gopro view is great!

Replaced my Corsa Xtreme axle-backs with Roush axle-backs. As much as I liked the tone of the Corsa, it just never sounded "muscle" enough for me. It sounded more like an Aston Martin or BMW V8. Plus it wasn't loud enough.

The Roush axle-backs are freaking phenomenal, though. Perfect tone, perfect volume (loud without being obnoxious), and not much interior noise.

Just did mine this past weekend and I totally agree with you. Based on the amount of noise these make at WOT you would think that there would be a lot of drone but there really isn't. Really happy with mine so far.

I had my buddy drive my Mustang while I followed in another friend's car. I couldn't stop giggling at how awesome my Mustang sounded, even at part throttle.

Part throttle is like the sweet spot from what I have heard. My buddy filmed me on his crappy iPhone and sent it to me after leaving my parking space in a lot. I never got on it, just drove off like normal and I probably hit about 3k rpms. Oh man, that sounded friggin sweet!!!

you guys should have went with LEGATO

Nope. Too loud. Will blow out the speaker on a video camera from what I hear. Louder than 600 jets flying over. Louder than a big block running open headers. Such loud. Much exhaust.

I ordered a replacement GT500 spoiler since the clearcoat on mine was visibly worn. It came in today and I was going to put it on during my lunch break, but it got damaged in shipping. Argh. I really wish I had unwrapped it BEFORE I went through the trouble of removing the old one and cleaning up the decklid.

Went to visit mine today, the new rims and tires fit almost perfectly flush with the back wheel wells. Hoping to have the engine put i soon as it is almost time fr it to be parked for the year. Builder is still waiting on a couple parts then to put everything together. Should be interesting to see if he can get the 650RWHP he is hoping for from my Saleen blower.

New wheels been on a few weeks or so.. Shelby CS40's , note Don't buy from American Muscle! Shelby moved their wheel manufacturing plant to USA which is perfect because now their wheels are made in the USA now,So I purchased them from AM thinking all my wheels would say Made in USA ,but when they came my 20x9's are made in the USA , but my back 20x10 wheels say made in China!!! plus my 20x9's are manufactured in 2016 and my 20x10's where manufactured in 2014,two different batches! Called them and complained but they would do anything about it! I'll never buy from AM ever again.... Still love the look,but pissed off that they are not a complete match far as where made!!!

Checked on my motor being put together at DB Performance. Happened to be a 5.0 with CPR kit that they had installed. The down pipe is just crazy on those kits.
