1st post...
This is my 1st post. I've had the 06 for over a year now and put 18k miles on it, no racing. I also own a 95 RX-7 with an LS1 that pumps out 430WHP. I love the car, but it has to go. I am using some of the money for minor mods to the car, maybe pony up and go full Kenne Bell, dunno yet, depend on what the mrs. says, LOL.
Anyway, I was thinking on getting the car some nice CCW wheels, the SP500, unsure as to what size still, any recommendations? Also on the list is a set of suspension mods, still dunno which one since I am relatively new to the modding the stang thing. Eibach? Ford Racing? Exhaust is next, going for just a catback for now. Magnaflow? Borla? Basani (spell check), which one sound better? Or give better gains?
Ahh, and lets not forget, the infamous HID's, LOL, I am going to get roasted for this but I got used to them already with my RX. Real HID system, not some wacked out kit pieced together from various cars. I am looking for one that uses real HID projectors, etc. I searches and came out with mustangmod, but they say no-no HIDs with their headlights.
Anyway, its good to be here and with a nice car that does not feel like its falling apart with every creek and crevice on the road.
Oh yeah, I am searching, not new to the forums, so I know, I will keep using the search feature.

RE: 1st post...
The chokemasters sound terrible IMO, you will get no gains from axle backs. There is not "true" catback system for our car, you will just be replacing the midpipes which is useless unless you want a higher grade of steel (which is what I did). I recommend Borla in the department.

RE: 1st post...
Read a bunch before you pick a system.
There is more than one way to go so check out cruises in your area. Hear the different sounds of our cars until you like one best.
Then ask the dude what he did, that way, you'll know.
