#0114 Home safe and sound.

It's been a really long day, so pics and more comments to follow. #0114 runs like a champ! What an engine! I don't like yellow cars - I love this color.

No initial discrepancies. Recaros feel really great, but I seem to be sitting a little high (must be driving the Boxster too much).

Stock exhaust is too quiet for me - surprisingly so. I fix that by pulling the discs and possibly changing out the muffs.

Overall though: I love it. This is exactly the Mustang I wanted.

Rain? We're worried about a little rain? I woke up this morning and everything green had turned white overnight. Sun came out and melted it down and the streets were dry by early afternoon. I snuck home and swapped the F-150 for the Boss and went for a shove in the winter wonderland. My wife IM's me later in the day and says are you

It's all good. I wasn't really driving in the snow....it was just on the grass and fortunately I didn't have any off-track experiences

Sorry folks, no pics yet. It's been raining C&Ds all day. The good news is that the PZeros hold the road really well in the rain.

I took the side exhaust discs out this morning. Much goodness was heard throughout the neighborhood. I'm going to try the GT500 mufflers this weekend, but I have a feeling they may be for sale soon. We'll see.

There was quite a bit of collected condensation in the side pipes when I loosened the nuts to to take the discs out. There's a watermark on both discs, so I think it's been there a while. Folks who keep the discs in on their daily driven Boss's may want to keep that in mind and drain the pipes every now and again.

Paul: sent you a pm regarding your ride.

Pics will be posted Saturday evening.

Are the FRPP FR-1 mufflers the same as the GT-500's? That's what supposed to come on the 302S race car. They sound great without the cats!
