Just finished the car
 
Im new here, been lurking in the guest section for a while. I did my introductory post in the intro section, but figured id go more into detail here.

I have a 2011 5.0 that i bought new. Less than 200 miles on the car i took the stock 3.15 gears out and put 3.73 in. Put a steeda intake, cut the cats out, put full 3 inch exhaust on it, and let JDM engineering tune it. Car ran 7.67 in the 1/8th. I have a 750 plus HP truck on blower/nitrous that runs 6s, so i couldnt have that...so i ordered a 2.3 TVS, 82mm pulley, qa1 shocks, relocation brackets, mickey thompsons, singlepiece driveshaft, driveshaft loop and a new tune from JDM. Just finished it and WOW what a difference. Havent hit the track yet, but i plan to soon. Im hoping for a 6.8x or faster. Sorry for the low quality cell phone pics, but enjoy. :D Pics are with the stock supercharger pulley, it has been changed.

Awesome man. How do you like the Roush? How was the install?

Its a powerhouse down low, outshines the whipple up to about 13-14 lbs of boost, only pat I didn't like was the cutting and grinding on the front cover of the engine, other than that it was very simple and way cheaper than any other kit on the market.

i did not take any pics, but on the 2011s they have three fins on the front cover that have to be burred/grinded down and 3 dowels that must be removed. They were not that hard, just makes a big mess. 2012 and further you only have to cut the dowels off not the fins because there is none
