Spent $$$ and added the GT Track Key, Boss Side Pipes complete with QTP cutouts and wireless switch option. Loving it so far. Loppy idle sounds great with the side pipes, especially when they are wide open. Not really much loader than with just the Roush Axle backs, but now is like having surround sound. Tone did change some, but still sounds great!

Took the mustang on its first out of state trip and enjoyed the ride, dig other commented it felt like we were driving on air.

Before that took it to the car wash for a good cleaning to get any residual salt grime off

Drove it 20 miles and back to my dealership and drove the new S550 5.0. Enjoyed the new car, but enjoyed my beloved S197 more.

So now that you've heard them with the cutouts open and closed, are the cutouts worth it?

Drove it to church and took the long way home. It was so hard to put it back in the garage. Snow coming tomorrow.

Smile 243 Mile Joy Ride

It was a beautiful sunny day in Northeast Kansas. My son had been asking about driving the 2006 a/k/a Traga Gasolina, so I told him ("If you wreck it, you bought it!" "You are paying for the gas!!!") we could drive into Amish country in Northwest Missouri to look for baked goods and hand made furniture. It was a pretty ride, we got kind of lost thanks to Garmin (the town in question, Jamesport, MO, is not where you end up if you follow the GPS turn by turn instructions), and speeds varied from legal to questionable. My son was under the impression that the 2006 would be quicker than the 2014 a/k/a La Bestia. One can see the improvements in total performance with such a tandem joy ride. What a great day to enjoy the Mustangs. Have you driven a Ford lately?

Dynoed 394/350, my GT has only an exhaust and tune.

Pretty happy with those numbers, bone stock baseline was 364/344 under similar conditions.

Don't buy a 2015 Mustang. They don't look half as good as your car does.
Very nice Burton. Enjoy!
