Got both controls arms installed. Even scored a same day alignment at Firestone. All I can say is... These control arms are magical compared to stock controls arms. Can't wait to see how the car handles with sway bars and BC coils on the car.

just got my whoosh catted DP on yesterday.....yes I know it does nothing on stock turbsky but MY GOD does it make the Thermal sound even BETTER than it did already....
I love all the milder exhausts I've heard with a catless DP. Cobb, Mountune, and FSwerks all sounds perfect at that point.

What sort of difference can you see? Do you track your car?
Just from the little driving I did after the alignment steering is more responsive around corners. I plan on the occasional track event but mostly it's my daily with some occasional weekend Dragon trips.

Damn I need to change the pin on my headlights those DRLs look good
Do it ! What I did I just got some wire from a spare harness I found on eBay, and ran it to a continuous power source that turns off and on with the ignition, that way I didn’t have to splice/cut the original wire

This happened last weekend but I installed my mountune radiator

I have yet to see temps above 205 and that was pushing it on the highway with the ac blasting in 85 ambient temps. Most of the time it’s it the 190s or 180s depending on how much I’m in boost and idling. The mountune radiator also lowers the temp much faster than the stock radiator once it gets airflow. I really want to test it on a steep and slow mountain gravel road, but I doubt I’ll have overheating issues. Also I’m running 50/50 motorcraft coolant, no water wetter.

Nice. Just curious about how many man hours? I’ve got a Whoosh double pass in my trunk that I need to get working on before summer heat gets here.

Worked on some of the goodies I’ve been grabbing here and there. Today I got spark plugs changed out today. I just hit almost 55k figured why not do them as PM. Was able to sneak rear mudflaps on before the sun went down. RMM and GFB came in the mail so it’s always a good day when you’ve got a package from Whoosh🤘🏼

Installed a Turbosmart BOV last night. For how simple a job it is it took wayyyy too long, that third bolt on the engine side was a @#$%& to get at, and I was convinced I was cross threading so basically did it twice.

Up next install the new DP and CBE

Installed some EBC yellows on my Tarox kit. And after a bit of driving holy cow the bite is insane. The car stops way way better than every before. I had the Tarox pads, EBC Red, and Hawk HPS and none stopped as well as the EBC Yellow. I’m impressed

They are very good pads. Filthy, but very good! They look great with those calipers.

After 6.3 moths, I picked my car up from the dealer with a 'new' (remanufactured) engine. I had them install my Mountune Rad while they had the engine out. They charged me 1.1 hrs labor. My time is well worth the cost.

Finished my Whoosh hybrid install and am super excited!! Took it out for a spin last night to get it up to temp then checked for leaks etc, seems good so far. Removal was a bit of a bitch and I felt like I was going to panic a couple of times but re installation ended up being a breeze....and I learned a lot. I did the removal all by myself and this may have been part of the reason it was a pain. When I installed, I had my son help me and just that extra set of hands was a game changer!!
I did NOT put the upper heat shield back on....anyone know if this will be a problem?
