I'm up for a big promotion at work....And if I get promoted, I'm going shopping for my 2004 Competition Orange Mach 1 shortly after!
I've already been in touch with CDC about a side exhaust kit for a car I don't even own yet....I think I'm getting a little crazy....

AWESOME NEWS!
Not only did I get the promotion and a big raise, but my hours and days off didn't change either!
AND I'm still going to get another 3% bump in pay in Feburary!
It's 'Nanner time!
The phone call to my wife went something like this:
Me: "Hey, you are officially speaking to the new Team Lead of the National Support Desk!"
Wife: "That's great! How much more money are you making?"
Me: "Enough to get the 2004 Competition Orange Mach 1 that I've been going on and on about, and the insurance bump!"
Wife:"Yay."
lol

Congrats Paul!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks, I really appreciate it! It's going to be a ton of hard work to get my team where they really need to be, but it'll be worth it. The new job starts on Jan 2nd, so I'll be hunting down my new ride after that....
Already got my new baby girl's name picked out....Adrianna....
Gonna get her a new side exhausts, get her side and rear windows tinted really dark and some rear window louvers. After that I'm gonna put in twin turbos, I think....I'm thinking that Mach engine should give me plenty of low end and the turbos can give me the high end boost....any thoughts?

I wouldnt go twin turbos without building a completely built motor first.
All depends on the power level you want. The rule of thumb is 400 to the wheels is fairly safe. Anything more, dont be shocked when it lets go.. this is for any type of forced induction. Also with any forced induction, its all about the tune.. make sure your tuner is good and does it right.
if thats your goal, go supercharger. Cheaper and easier than the turbo route.
congrats!!
It's going to be Feburary...early Feburary, fo' sho'! Guaranteed!
Talked it over with my wife and we're gonna get one financial thing taken care of and POSSIBLY trade cars with my son when he comes up from Florida at Christmas (he'd get my 'Stang and we'd take his Intrepid, so our two younger kids have a POS to learn to drive in). Depends on what shape that car is in. If it's crap, we'll just keep my current ride and trade it in on the Mach.
I will say I AM catching a little grief about Competition Orange....she'd rather see Dark Shadow Grey or Azure Blue, so we might have to compromise on Screaming Yellow...But she told me just to get what I want (but you married guys know what THAT means! lol).
So the final color is gonna be either SY (more likely) or CO, either of which I'll be SUPER happy with!
I'm already scouring the internet for the right car, so once I come across it, she's comin home!
