Looks good Burton!!
Thanks Tony.
I polished the crap out of every one of them.
They had scratches and brake dust all over them.
They look almost new now
Tomorrow she's getting a 2013-2014 GT500 2.3 blower installed, along with '13-'14 GT500 56lb injectors, new NGK TR6 spark plugs, and a new CAI.
She's gonna need the traction of those DR's even more than she needs it now.

I highlighted it in depth in my other thread in the main section. My next set of mods are the CFM intake, kooks LTH's, then green Catted H.
The new intake increases my MAF from 82mm to 98. Thus new tune. And holy cow. Just got back from wot data logging sessions in 2nd and 3rd gear and I'm spinning my wheels in both even with a roll into wot. Insane. They gave me more hp and more torque. The car feels much more alive now, esp with throttle tip in response. I'll dyno it next spring after the headers are on, but we are thinking 575ishwhp now, then maybe 590ish by spring.

So I pretty much know it's not gonna sell.
But whatever, if somebody comes along with a workable offer, I'll listen and maybe we'll make a deal.
How awesome would 2 GT500's look in the garage?

I actually did put it up for sale, but only on a Facebook Coyote selling page, and priced it at $35k.

I thought you loved your car Gabe? You did a lot of awesome stuff to it.
But in the long run, you have to make "you" happy. What year GT500 are you looking at/for? I see a bunch of nice 2013/2014 GT500's for sale online. (Not that I'm looking or anything at those cars specifically,.............
)
