Make your car sound like it's got some killer lopey cams in it, like the old school muscle cars.

Because the lope makes it sound like the engine has a real mild race cam...

That ghost tune or whatever it's called is supposed to mimic a racing cam's sound without the racing cam. The cams themselves are a fortune to buy/install, don't do anything for an engine that isn't further modified to make use of the cams and make street driving difficult at best. Most of those cars have trouble not stalling out at a stop light. The ghost tune is an easy way for people to replicate the sound without the actual hardware.

Thanks Mikey. The set up looks great, and the CS40's give me the screaming thigh quivers. Love those wheels.

I'm just putting together my wish list....too soon for me to swap wheels and a different tire size with only 3500 miles on mine. But since I have machined aluminum/black Boss 302S, I'd lean towards the all aluminum CS40's. That's down the road a bit. Or maybe not.

Your car is beautiful.

A gorgeous rag top down day in Northwest NJ yesterday. My GT drank a small fortune in gas, but it would have been a bargain at twice the price. These shots were taken in and around Blairstown.

Don't forget the mild window tint and headlight/taillight & side marker tint needed to complete the package.

Thanks. First Mustang I've owned (not if you don't count the 'vert I bought the wife that was traded in to get her 11 GT). I will hang onto this as long as I have license, and then pass along to one of my children. It's fast, it's fun, it's hot, it's everything I hoped it would be.

I've kept all the stock parts should they be needed, years after I'm in the ground. I'm gonna miss driving it when it hibernates Dec 1...
