What have you done to your mustang today?

[SNKPWR]

Nice! Yeah my car has a full suspension, lowers, adj upper, adj panhard, relo brackets, koni oranges, steeda springs, dynotech d/s etc. Are you a 6spd as well? What rpm are you launching at? I was experimenting around 3500-4500 rpm. Tire pressure at around 17 cold. 28-11.5-15 M/T ET Drag.

Manual 3.73 car on 26x10 et drag set at 15 psi cold. Launching around 5-5.5k. Also lowered on sportlines with koni yellows. Bit hard and came out hole fast

Am excited! After 3 years of summer only tires in NJ so the Mustang can only come out on mild winter days my wife said fine to a winter set of wheels and tires so can keep the summer onlys! Ordered 18 inch wheels that look similar to my brembo wheels that clear brembo brakes, 4 winter performance tires 255/45/18, tire sensors, trigger tool, a tire rack to hang them up in my garage, mount and balanced, shipped from tire rack for 1850

Even the extra wide, expensive, "low profile" Race Ramps aren't low profile enough. Jeesh.

Sounds good, but in the snow you usually want a narrower tire so you don't float on top of the snow.

Too late to call back and ask to swap the tires for some 235/50/18's ?

I made myself some step-up "ramps" from some old pieces of kitchen cabinet siding, just screwed them together and I put them up in front of the ramps:

Anyway, I finally installed the front and side splitters I've had in the garage for a month. I am unsure of the boss and I'm afraid it's going to get destroyed in no time, but I dig the side splitters.

took it to the track, ran a 12.5 with a 1.9 60ft on the sumitomos with only about 30% tread left

Unless I hit an unexpected patch of snow that day mustang still won't come out on those days as my wife has an AWD Pontiac and I have a jeep. It's more for proper traction and know am safe in winter with tires rated bellow 40 degrees. But thanks for the comment as I didn't know narrow tires are better in snow. Coming from jeep being my favorite pass time with off roading before, bigger was always better! Lol

Yup. I put chunks of 2x4 behind the ramps so I could back the car off them, it went up fine but when I installed the splitter the angle was too severe. I've got a wood shop in the basement, I'll throw something together for permanent use. It sucks, I had bought the Race Ramps to avoid a homemade solution, I could have just used the Rhino ramps I already had. Oh well...

Steeda motor mounts; dropped 1/2 inch so I can hopefully fit a strut brace on.

Changed tr3650 fluid to Pennzoil Syncrhomesh.

Never had an issue prior, so no noticeable difference.
