Morning all

Scott,
Great job with the vids, they all captured the sound well.
Sure did tone it down alot. Those ones actually 'muffle' the exhaust,big difference from the GTA's.

A little on the cold side, but no precipitation here at least.
To wash the car or not to wash the car, that is the question.

Getting a little brighter here tonight. Got my Steeda Pentars and Nitto's back on the car but it ain't going no where in this weather. Rain and snow flurries. They say it will be nicer tomorrow. Maybe this is the last of that winter crap!!!

I'd look here first. Pick the wheel type you like.

http://stores.ebay.com/Brenspeeds-Stang-Recycler


And then I would look at takeoffparts.com

I was thinkin of grabbing 2 of these just for the drag radials I already have
http://cruizinconceptswholesale.com/...D17X9A&cat=215
They at least are a close match to what I run now so it wont look that odd.

America Muscle was the same style of wheels about the same price plus 6% off if you know the discount code. Brenspeed doesn't have 9" wide wheels.

Darrell if you do drag radials, you could always do the ET streets that Brenspeed uses and they work with the 8' tire.

Good morning everyone! I installed my intake and tune again, car runs great. Hopefully the weather will be good on Saturday so I can test my new mods at Byron Dragway.

looked up an old bud that was on my shift at the Fire Dept when I was his Captain. He works at a big Truck tire Store. He's seeing how much he can get the Drag Radials for. They will be BFG's.
