Default 2011 Mustang V6 Performance Package -- Checking In

Howdy fellow Mustang members,

Signed up to keep on top of whats happening in the Mustang world.

I am rocking a custom ordered 2011 v6 Performance Package (no wing, no decal, white with tan interior). Took some hell over on the forum I work on for changing to a Mustang. But its one hell of a car.

Going light on the modifications for this car. She has 4300k HIDs, Flowmaster axle-back, K/N filter panel, and custom Bama SCT tune from American Muscle. *Trying* to keep this car simple.

Little bit about me:
Been actively racing cars for 12 years now. Currently I race a 2002 Ford Focus SVT. Previously I had a 2005 Mitsubishi Evolution 8.

I am testing products for a few manufactures at the moment on the SVTF. Mustang I have a set of EBC Blues on deck for some track testing. Due to work travel I am still looking for time to do suspension spring development. You can say that I am active in tire, suspension, and braking technologies

Cheers,

MG

Welcome to the board!

Great ride, and even though it is only a V6, your car is pumping out almost as much power as a 4.6L V8!

I could not justify the ~$3000 increase in price to a Coyote motor for ~150hp. Ill hold out for SC or TC if I really want that much go

Bonus of 29 mpg on my long trips is great too. And the v6 sounds sweet.

Did SCCA for ~6 years. Over the last 3 years I have moved over to HPDE.

Work keeps me traveling a ton. But I get in a good 4-12 track events a season. This year the SVTF will be in the Midwest, I am just going to fly in for NASA events.
