Hey guys,

Just bought my first mustang about a month ago. I love the car, it is a blast to drive and I figured I would join a mustang forum to chat with fellow mustang owners.

I am 22, an electrician and proudly Canadian. My car is a 2004 GT, it is fully loaded and is the 40th anniversary edition. It has 78,000km as of date and has a manual transmission.

So far, it has a mild comp cam, an sct tuner, 4.10 gears, american muscle wheels (10 inch out back, 8 up front) along with window tint and a few other things.

The car breathes through a k&N cold air intake right now and has bbk long tube ceramic headers followed up with a catless h-pipe, flowmaster super 44's and out 4 inch tips.

I am looking to keep the car about the same as it is right now. Not many further mods are planned however I would like to maybe someday get a grille with the cowl as one piece instead of the two piece design like my stock GT grille.

Here's a few pictures;[URL=http://s530.photobucket.com/user/cody-hockey/media/IMG_7290_zpsb1hfqf8j.jpg.html]Name:  IMG_7290_zpsb1hfqf8j.jpg

Welcome to the forum, glad to have you. Congrats on those two cars, but have to say, I really like the Marquis. All it needs is a 2" drop lol. Nice job.

Welcome to the Forums Burk!

Great looking 2 Valve you have there, the wheels go great with the rest of the car!

What are your plans for her now? I know these projects are never done

Let me know if you ever need anything!

I've always liked that color on the New Edge's. Other than boost for performance it seems the car already has the major bolt ons plus some. Welcome to the forums.

Thanks guys. I was thinking about maybe a cowl hood with a real hood scoop. Besides that, the mods are probably done for a little bit till I pick up a truck to DD.

After that, I am kind of interested in going the supercharger route. It would be cool to do a full coyote swap but I'm not sure how much it's going to run me. I figure for about 7-8 I could have it supercharged. I would likely have to spend double that for a coyote motor.
