JLT started modding the 2013, pics inside

Pictures don't do this color justice, but let's show some anyway.
We started with some simple stuff like Project 321 engine caps and some hydrocarbon coil covers and fuse box cover.

Next we designed our our Brake cooling kit. We love to hit the road course as much as we can and brake cooling is huge on track.
So we used our billet aluminum brake duct bezels for the 05-09 GT and they worked perfect. All you have to do is drill (2) 2 1/2" holes in the grille and snap them in, they look like they belong in the lower grille.
Added the JLT backing plates and duct work and it was done.
We will have this ready in the next few weeks
Black bezels

Clear/satin bezels


Next up we added FRPP Adjustable shocks and struts along with BMR springs and adjustable panhard bar.
Off came the stock wheels in favor for our custom Boze Tach 20" wheels we love so much.



We dynoed the car with only 115 miles on it with 87 fuel and bone stock.
It made almost exactly what our 2011 did, but a smoother run and more power in the mid range.

We have a ton more planned, so keep an eye here or our Facebook page for up to the date mods and pics.

Still full of 87, 1/2 left.
We will do more testing next week and yes, we will base line it with 93 before we do anything else.

Lookin good!

Jay did you put an oil separator yet? I couldn't see one from the pics. I'm curious to see with the slight changes to the motor how much it'll catch.

Kinda off topic but was wondering if your 2013 came with goodyear's or pirellie's? I was checking out a 2013 with the brembo option the other day and noticed it had GY's.

Were still modding.
Last week we added the Barton shifter and wow what a improvment! Super firm shifts and an over all better feal to the transmission. A MUST DO!
We tinted the windows and also added our Hydrocarbon 5.0 emblems. Getting rid of the chrome 5.0 really helped the grean pop.
Today it's getting a clear bra from Ultrashield and then our flat black side stripe.
Thanks
Jay
