(Yes I can say i had Tags Mrs. in my backseat!) Of course Tag and I were talking cars and they were talking makeup. Kind of like base coat clear coat talk
It surpasses my 5th Gen in all aspect BUT torque. I know...it sounds crazy. But, it isn't as "push your head back in your seat" as my old 4th Gen. WE WILL FIX THIS ISSUE. I expect more out of this 5th Gen and plan on getting it. I NEED a cold air intake. I'm looking at LMR and New Era Performance. That is going to free up a lot and I KNOW it will help. I can also say that in 5 YEARS....when the warranty runs out, I'm tossing in a cam. This motor has SO much potential.....just WAITING. But, yeah...the 5th Gen COMPLETELY SURPASSES everything about the 4th Gen except in that low end torque. Oh, we also talked about changing those rear end gears. We just might have to do that.....

Really Nice Car.........Congrats on your delivery!

It looks like they wet sanded and re-cleared the whole car, The paint job looks amazing.

So how many miles were on the odo when you picked it up??

Hug away! As far as the exhaust goes I only know of 3videos of it. My standard and automatic videos of the catback and the ones of your full system. The auto was done before yours at stainless and mine installed at Toms. They will all have a different sound. So are you good with your noise levels?

Need to get on the highway again. I think it's going to be fine. But, I might pick up the other muflfers just "in case" there comes that time. It's great to show off...still thinking.

WTH is up with my photobucket account??? I've never had this before. What am I supposed to do?

Huge congrats Doug! You've hung in there through this whole project and it was priceless to see you in that video starting up and driving your dream car. Looks fantastic, sounds like it's hungry for some Mustang meat (tastes like chicken?). Thanks for posting all this in your journal and all these pics; it's been a great "novel" to read and follow. Glad it turned out with such a great ending! Now for the next chapters...

love the vid. You have that kid in a candy store glazed eyes look about you. I think everyone who has their car has experienced it.

The journey home .

I can not wait to sit down, relax, and tell you all of my wonderful experience this weekend. Right now, I am headed back to san antonio. For those that were wondering, yes...I waaaas ahead of the wife in getting home. But those darn planes are kind of fast...lol

This car is so amazing....now with 1049 miles on it....it is truly incresible...

I am about 23 miles from nashville...left carlisle at 8am and took Mrs.Tag to the PIT airport dropping her off at 2pm. So, I am making pretty good time...

Catch ya'll in a few!
