What are you working on?

Yeah same. I ended up just going straight 93. I DD my car and there really isn't a lot of E85, plus with the E85 it is suggested to change the injectors and I didn't want to so 93 octane is fine by me.

I won't be able to give you impressions of just the tune since I will be installing a GT350 IM as well today. Either way I'll have something posted this weekend about my thoughts.
Ok so everything is installed. I have/had one issue. I snapped the long bolt attaching the fuel rails. I don't have the tools or know how to get it out. I'm assuming I need to bring it to the shop.
I'm also having a stumbling/stall issue on first startup which only started after I got gas. Was fine at first startup though. Odd. After that it's fine. The car runs like a raped ape right now and the top end is incredible.
Edit: Fixed my stumbling/stall issue it seems. I didn't transfer over the old o ring from the stock manifold to the throttle body adapter. D'oh. Everything seems to be running fine now.

Hello all, hope you had a good 4th. I know I don't post much and technically I'm no longer a Carolina MF'R since I moved to GA at the beginning of the year but those guys aren't near as active.
What have I done lately? Well since I'm in an Atlanta Metro county I had to get the Mustang to pass an emission inspection which means no CEL. So I replaced the MAF, PCV Valve and Front O2 sensors (rear O2s were already replaced) and the light has gone away.
I ordered new seat foam from LMR and leather seat covers from Richmond Auto Upholstery. I intended to start that this week but it'll be delayed some since the Mustang is in the shop for an overheating issue and nothing is obviously wrong. I hope it isn't the water pump but the car has 198K miles on it so we'll see.
ETA: I test drove a 2016 GT with the performance package over the weekend. What a ride!

Dan, glad you are happy with the intake, got any pics? Not sure of the difference between stock and the GT350 IM. By the way, how does a raped ape run?
Gadgetech, thanks for checking in. Sounds like you are settling in nicely, keep us updated on the work.
I spent under $100 and bolted on what has to be at least 50 HP, haven't driven it yet but I am sure that number is pretty much spot on.
Got it from a company called Hot Rod Shift *****. A buddy was buying a shift **** for his rat rod and I stumbled on it and couldn't resist.
