Hi everyone,

Great resource you have here. I'm located in Columbia SC and I recently purchased my first mustang. It's a 2010 GT and yes I know I just missed out on the 5.0 motor. That being said, I still really like this car. I just need to add more power boosting goodies.

Mods completed to date (basic):
Avarus 20x8.5 / 20x10 wheels with Michelin super sport tires
Flowmaster 40 series axle back
CAI
BAMA tune
window tint

To do:
I'd like to lower it a bit, but I'm scared it will rub with the 20" wheels/tires.
Supercharge - Not sure whether I'll go centrifugal or roots at this point.
3.73 gear swap
Possibly add long tube headers, x-pipe, and cams...but I'm afraid I'll have to beef up the bottom end of the motor if I do that with a supercharger.

Thanks again for the resource here. I'm looking forward to gaining more info from you all.

I think I saw your car the other day. Welcome to the forum. My family lives in Columbia and I will be retiring here when I'm don't with the military. If you have more questions feel free to ask because there are always some good answers to be had from the folks in here. Your car looks great.

Thanks for the warm welcome! Ordered the 3.73 gears & panhard rod from AM last night so looking forward to getting those in and installed.

I'll definitely have more questions in the not too distant future as the upgrades continue. Of course I'll be sure to use the forum search function first though.

Welcome and enjoy! I've loved every minute of my 2010 GT ownership, even without the wonderful 5.0L.
