Well you should have a tune made for regular fuel 91 octane, because there's no guarantee of ethanol.

Or just lower a Boost option using wastegate spring pressure.

I agree. I wouldnt want someone polluting my build thread with bullcrap either. Let's get this thread back on topic.

Test fitting ACEP stylings “stanky eyes” - dying to put them on but need to paint them first. I am also waiting on my cup spoilers and carbon pixels body kit... so I’ll just hold off to paint all at once. I think they look sweet though! Kinda weird not completely attached or painted, but I’m seeing through that to end result. Should be rad!

1,000 more miles until heartbreak! 6 digits and not in the bank 😏

Plenty of this going on... pretty much every door, including hood and trunk. So, I ordered up some equipment and color match paint. Will be attacking this soon as well. So many projects piling up! Yikes 😬

Now I am per your suggestion! Sand first and prep all the same correct? Don’t just spray over I would imagine!

It's a brush on product usually - not sure you can spray it.

Just wire brush and methyl hydrate / acetone is suitable - it's called Paint OVER Rust for a reason!

That’s incredible!

Shake the can well, apply in 'thin' multiple coats allowing it to tack up in between - I use it on my 4x4's for protecting the steel.

Can I sand it and then prime it then paint factory color over it?

Everything is right in here.....

Just read the MSDS and tech sheets on the POR-15 per typhoons suggestion. Is this stuff really that legit? If it is then I think I’m going to completely cover my undercarriage with it.... application is easy and it also acts as a primer. Does it get any better? Can anyone speak to its finish or length of integrity?

A lot of old VW guys swear by it when taking care of their floor pans and surely many other restoration enthusiasts as well.

Threw some fly eye on the headlights. Looks pretty neat but my goodness I have no idea how someone would wrap a car. That was SOOOOO frustrating.

POR15 is legit. I also frequent F150 forums and the restore guys all swear by it.

Which POR product though? I’ve heard mixed reviews after looking into their company. Some products better than others from them it seems. because of that, I’m leaning into sanding binding and painting.... unless there is a fail proof tested product from them. I know typhoon recommended a product from them that was a spray can. Aaron what you think? I just got my paint and clear coat in the mail today. Will probably start some rust touch up soon. Painting crash bar too at same time. Still waiting on body kit..................

100k club! Woot.... 🥴

Man do these look retarded! Sigh... kinda premature putting these on yet but it is what it is. Should look complete/balanced once widebody, cup spoilers, canards and splitter on...... paint job on the eyes looks good so that’s lit. Other than that I’m actually not too pleased. Maybe they’ll grow on me and I’m just not used to something so different 🤞
