New 2014 GT Premium

I hadn't posted anything in here yet but I recently picked up a new 2014 GT Premium with Brembo brakes, Leather Recaro seats, 3.73 gears and pedestal spoiler.

Mods so far are the Boss 302 side exhaust, stubby antenna, window tint and replaced stock crappy looking shifter with the Boss 302 ball/shift boot. in addition i have ordered the rear valence for the GT500 (looking for GT500 quad tip mufflers) and also ordered the Trackkey.

a few Pics..

You got another Mustang?? Please post a sound clip with the Boss H! Are you going to do an MGW too? Also, are you going to add GT500 catback pipes to delete the resonators?

I'm adding the GT500 axle backs only with quad tips. Once I add the QTP side exhaust cut-outs the exhaust will be done for awhile.

I was very surprised at how much better this 2014 shifts than my 2013 did. So I am not sure an MGW is in the cards. We will see how this shifter set-up feels a few months from now.

Once all the parts for doing the 2013 GT500 quad tip exhaust shows up I'll get it installed and get a video clip up.

well my 2013/2014 quad tip axle-backs arrived along with the GT500 rear valance. I also ordered a set of roush side / rear splitters for it. Only problem is I'm in Tennessee on business and can't get the stuff installed!!!

Pics of the rear valance mod with GT500 quad tip axle-backs. I know I know... the car is dirty but I only gave it a quick cleaning before doing the mod.

I think the right tip might be out further than the left....

It was easier to cut the OEM valance and mod the bumper cover for the new GT500 lower valance than it was to install the exhaust. All I have is some wooden step ramps. It honestly took me longer to get the OEM mufflers off and new ones on than it took to removed the bumper, cut and mod the bumper and re-install the bumper. I had to loosen the the mid-pipes and slide them around to get the stock axle backs off and that was a little difficult to do with no lift, jack-stands or higher ramps. But....it's DONE!!

The body saw from Harbor Freight and the Dremel tool made this so much easier. I'll probably never use them again but it was cheaper than paying to have it installed.

It's not my favorite either, but the pedestal spoiler *does* look better with the quads...

Where's our exhaust clip now?!

Looks great! I was lucky that I had a friend with a lift when I did my mid pipes and axle backs. It took about a half hour that way. I put the single tip GT500's on my '14 though.

I thought about going single tip as well but I knew I wanted to either paint the lower valance or swap it out. Since Tousley wanted less for the valance than the body shop wanted to paint the lower valance it was a no brainer. kcoTiger gave me a deal on his GT500 OEM take-offs.
