Ghost, man that photo is cool! Thanks . I actually hit about 102mph down the back straight. The guy in the blue T/A kept slowing down to 60mph in the turns for some stupid reason even after we were told we could go as fast as the slowest car.


I paid $300 for my CAI and the polished was $350 but, that was a monthly special for August so I don't know what the regular price will be. You can send Granatelli a PM or call and ask. I'm going nuts waiting on mine. Kind of like waiting on my car again.

I really want to get some mods for my car...especially after seeing all the 'Stangs...your plenum cover, the CAI...

I really should wait though until the house in Fort Worth sells. I gotta pay another month's mortgage and bills if it doesn't...

Yeah. it's a pain in the rear when you want to get something but, you can't get it yet! I really wanted the polished cai, the throttle body and the exhaust system. I have the money for it all but, I would be sitting in the dark eating butter sandwiches if I spent it.

Just an update. UPS says my CAI and strut brace should be here tomorrow. I'm going nuts waiting, especially after seeing one on Dannys' car.

Make sure you post pics of the install... can't wait to hear how you feel it runs after the install.

Well it finally arrived! Everything looks to be in good shape. Unfortunately, it got here so late that I don't think I have time to put it on today before I go to work.

I'm not mechanically inclined, but I'd be more than happy to assist if needed

Seriously, it takes no time at all to swap out. If you need a hand, PM me.

OK,it's all on finally. I had some trouble getting it all adjusted but, I finally got it. Strut brace is on too! Pics will have to wait until tomorrow evening though. I gotta get ready for work. If you're on the roads, I'll be the blue streak!

Here it is! Man this thing is great. I got a serious growl when I get on it now and I can definitely feel the difference. I'll try to post up a couple more pics in the daylight with the strut tower brace on it tomorrow. Headed out to Hooters in a few.
