Ordered shorty headers yesterday and they are being delivered today. Install won't happen for at least a couple weeks though.

Can't wait to get an amp hooked up to them.
I have those in my 2007 GT. Picked them up on eBay for about what you paid

They are fantastic! You'll love them

Didn't do anything with the green machine as there's snow outside and very cold. Just looked at her hooked up to the I.V. (battery tender. lol) while throwing out some recycling.
But,....I did pay her off some more. Another three payments going in the mail Monday morning. Don't need to send another car payment till April of 2016!!

No dyno numbers yet as it was acting up from the temperature (not happy with the cold), but it's tuned. Will take it back next week for a WOT run to determine current HP and TQ numbers.

Put new door speakers in. HUGE difference over stock, even with the stock head unit.

Will tackle the rears some other time. Ended up being more difficult then originally anticipated.

rears are actually easier than the front , but did you mean the sides or rear deck, I have a vet and replace all speakers and have 2x10" subs in my trunk

Didn't put in a new super charger or anything that extreme, at least not yet. Did finally get around to installing my Moroso Oil Separator and a Classic Design Concepts dead pedal. The dead pedal matches my 401a (GT500 style) pedals. Neither took too long, but the dead pedal was kind of a pain...

Did not get any pics of the dead pedal, but here are a few pics of the Moroso final product. Decided to add some mesh sleeving to protect the hoses and make them look a little nicer.

Noticed I had dust on the manifold cover in the pictures, oh no. Had to get that cleaned up. Nothing a little fiber cloth didn't fix.

What mesh did you use, that looks nice! And I have/had the CDC pedal as well - it was a PITA to install and one day it just came loose. I couldn't tighten that bolt down enough without a ratcheting box wrench. I haven't put it back in because I was never really happy with it. It looks good and matches the pedals perfectly, but it's just too small for that area! I'm planning on replacing all of them with bigger anodized pedals that will make heel/toeing easier.

Looks like your getting good coverage. What kind of paint are you using?

Believe it or not, its high temp brake caliper paint from G2. I checked with the manufacturer and they said it will work for engine parts. The can is only 4 oz. and covered all these parts with 2 coats and still had some paint left at the bottom of the can when i was done...just took me 6 hours to do by hand not spraying.

Rear deck is what I haven't done yet. Requires pulling seat belt mount a side panels to remove cover.

Looks good man! I debated the Moroso before picking up the Bob's. Let us know how you like it.
