    Got the car back tonite...here is some evidence of what some people might call an addiction. Much thanks to Bikerboy for doing the install and Jason for doing the painting.

    Thx guys! I'll try to get some better pics of the FMIC with some good light with the car all put back together. Between Matt's nice cutting work and Jasons paint work on there it looks beautiful, that grill/radiator paint finished very very nicely. It looks very sleeperish hiding in the front bumper. Although after driving it around it doesn't sound sleeperish :laugh: I was thinkin if I didn't like the finish I'd make a grille to go in front of it but that is definitely not going to happen...black FTW!! I'm not gonna get any sleep til after dyno day :naughty: 5 days and counting......

    ^^ I was actually going to wait to see if yours fit. Mine will be ok for the tune but I'm probably going to order an Invidia V2 or the Helix depending on whether or not they fixed the V3's. Mine is missing a bolt right now so I am a little nervous.

    Ok so a few issues later and I can finally put this one to bed. As of today this thing is about as close to 100 percent as it has ever been. A new clutch and radiator will be in the somewhat near future and a couple exhaust wrapping projects but as for now the car is driving awesome. after catch can issues, downpipe hardware issues, spark plug issues, new struts and tophats in the back(just got them today) this thing now accelerates and corners like a million bucks. Final numbers on the Mustang were 358whp/357wtq.

    Much props to Readymixx, Justin, Mushashi, Nathan,Ben Brian and crew at Mtka. and last but not least Matt(Bikerboy) for the great service, work, and for standing behind it. and of course Dream for deciding he needed a 35R :laugh:

    Nope it wasn't the car itself...we had a catch can that was too small for the application and wasn't filtering anything, JetHot never sent downpipe hardware back after they coated my brand new downpipe and stock pieces were used which did not fit, and had installed one step colder plugs which weren't good enough so had to install a second set which were coppers.

    38MM with .9 spring. I think the one I picked up from Fobia was .7 iirc. I'll use whichever and sell the other one.
