After installing my Dash Kit...

I get aproximately 2 more sexy women stop by for a look for every 6 gas stops.

Pretty good preformance gain if you ask me.

yeah, my mods are in on my website but here they are:
SCT w/ dyno'd custom tune
Steeda Intake
Steeda Underdrive Pulleys
Plasma Booster Ignition
JBA Long-Tube Headers - JBA Off-Road H-Pipe - JBA Evolution Exhaust
Ford Racing 3.73 Gears
Ford Racing FR500 18" Rims, BFGoodrich g-force t/a KDW 275/35/18 tires
Eibach Pro-Kit Springs
Steeda Motor Mounts

On the way:
throttle body (when they release it)
aluminum Intake inlet tube
charge motion plates
electric water pump
aluminum flywheel

by the way, i would not go by the "dyno numbers" from the manufacturer b/c if they were true, my car would be putting down around 400 to the wheels and i am only putting down 315 and that is with a very agressive tune

So Mac10chap, if your running about 314HP with those mods, what do you think these cars are pushing for HP stock at the wheels? I'm assuming the factory "300" horsepower rating is at the flywheel?

at the wheels, it depends on if you are referring to an automatic or manual...from what i have seen, the manuals are putting down on average around 270-280 RWHP and the automatics are putting down around 260-270 RWHP

The autos actually put down between 245 and 257. 257 is the highest auto dyno I have heard about. I put down 250 stock in mine. Which tb are you waiting for? I am waiting for the BBK twin 62mm. I am then going to get the spacer and the C&L intake tube. I will get retuned after those mods of course.
