Please Vote for my ride if you like it and enjoy the pics:


Well finally got the car I've wanted since I started driving (almost anyway, I wanted a 90's cobra back then but the army doesnt pay well enough for the new cobras so we'll just build up to one lol) a brand new black on black mustang.

update: i got the shelby cs8 kit installed but i didnt like the body parts and stripes so I basically paid for nothing more than some suspension mods and a turn 1 shelby signed plaque (which I didnt even get put on the car since I dont want it ruined)...lol

So I started out with having Excessive Motorsports do a tune/dyno on it after I installed a BBK CAI and a Pypes Violator axle back muffler set up.. That resulted in a dyno of 278rwhp and I dont honestly remember what the torq was. But Its not that bad for an automatic with stock gears and just a tune basically.So far I havn't done much to it under the hood ,however that is my next project is hopefully a supercharger probably a roush as Ive done about all I want to the looks so far. And of course 4:10 gears,torq converter and others as money allows. Also want the new glassroof option.

UPDATE: Just threw in a set of Steeda Pro Springs, Steeda Throttle-Body, Steeda Hood Lift struts and a set of coil covers (matching the plenum cover).

UPDATE: Just added FRP 4:10's, TCI 3000 Stall Converter, A new tune from Bama-chips (which is the biggest singler gain that I "can feel" so far), and a pypes x-pipe (w/o cats). 

UPDATE: aggressive front spoiler(text black, will get new pics soon but looks sweet), Euro corner lights and black LED 3rd brake light, black reflector covers, california special/cobra side scoops, lightwieght aluminum driveshaft, steeda traction bars/panhard bar/rear and front sway bar.
