Well took the wife to Frankfurt airport yesterday and notice a little difference in engine sound in the cabin but nothing I'm going to miss. Great drive with a lot of wide open autobahn!
Tint guy should be here in a few hours

Nice. I am saving for the KW ClubSport coilovers so I can have the most adjustability I can get. Eventually I will spend a lot of time on the track. Next year I hope to get in at least 50 laps at the Ring too.

Got car back from the shop the other day so no more messed up bumper. Still have issues with paint and mufflers but o well.

Went out the Bitburg for some drag racing yesterday with some other mustang from K-town. I had a great time.
Here is my best run.

Thanks!

Well installed the airaid this morning. Very easy install. I can hear a deference and seems to have a bit more spunk. Overall very happy but now it makes me want to get a tune not sure if I want to wait another year.

http://youtu.be/7KEUQksMUjUOk So I went back to Bitburg for another day 1/4 mile fun. Here are some pic and a vid. It was better this time not crowded at all and was able to make runs with a very short wait. I didn't really improve my time. So that airaid didn't give me anything but o well it will help when I get a tune.

Finally installed my BMR UCA and bracket. Install was not to bad and didn't notice any more noise. I think majority of the rear end noise came from installing the LCA.

Also got a SCT x4 from steeda and picked up a used set of jegs cat deletes. Car is defiantly louder and picked up some HP! Just might be to loud gonna give it a few weeks and see. It took some messing with adjusting and adjusting to get the cat deletes to seal good.

Since the car is parked for winter I have been messing with some stuff. Removed the fog lights and replacing with mesh. Only did one side yesterday. might let some more air under the hood.
I also pulled the front struts to swap in the Koni orange I have had for a while now. Now gotta take them the hobby shop to use spring compressor.
