Winter comming to an end..
I guess since in the winter I can't drive my car, I tear it apart and work on things...here is a list of what I did or am doing to my car this year:
-Fabbed up a fuel pressure gauge, it goes on the rail
-Fabbed up a new EGR delete spacer
-Put lower control arm reinforcments in
-Put in new adjustable lower control arms
-Fabbed up an air filter adaptor for my 70mm MAF
-Fabbed my own cold air kit
-Converting to MAF from SD
-Hiding wires in engine compartment
-New adjustable fuel pressure regulator
-70mm BBK throttle body
-Shift light
-MSD cap and rotor kit
-New red Ford racing wires
-New dead soft aluminum header gaskets
-porting headers/cleaning the welds up
-New BBK X pipe
-New black headline and visors
-Ported my upper and lower intakes
-Drilled and tapped a new hole in my lower intake for my temp gauge.
-Plugged my EGR port in my lower intake
That is all I can think of right now, and in my opion, it is around a $1000 well spent. I also just picked upa pair of 10 holes to put some DR on, so soon I will be picking up a set of 255/60/15 MT for them. I hope I can get my 1/4 with most of this work.
What have you guys done to make winter pass??

RE: Winter comming to an end..
I put rebuilt my T5 with all new G-Force internals with mcleod clutch kit and a Pro5.0 to top it off. I also put on some adjustable granatelli weight jacker lowers and adjustable granatelli uppers. I was unable to keep my rear sway bar on tho, gotta find out how to make that work somehow.
