new to the s197

[DeWalt17fan]

Im new to the s197 and I have to admit I miss my mach 1 and cobra. New is always good and I guess it will take some getting use to. Please tell me what you think. both the car and the dyno thanks everyone ahead of time. exterior as follows...Eibach springs, Steeda ultralite 18x9.5, steeda street wing. Mods...Borla exhaust, o/r bassani x, 4.10, sct tune, steeda pullies. Oh and its an auto

That's not a bad gain at all over stock. I haven't gotten my auto dyno'd, but according to Hypertech, a stock 2006 GT Auto was 258 HP@5400 263 FT/LBS@4700

Not bad #s
Now go get a set of Long Tube headers w/ H-pipe. That should get you anoth 12 or so at the wheels.

First of all I was taught that if you have nothing nice to say don't say anything at all.
What's wrong with it
Fortunately for you I don't live in your area cause you'd be pretty used to seeing the rear wing.

Nice choice of color. If it was out in 05 that's probably what I would have bought.
Nice numbers for an auto.
What octane tune are you running?
Any intake on it?
I would suggest either the C&L, Steeda, or JLT.

Nice steeda. I do have a cold air. it is a j&b one. It was my first mod on the car and the only one I know that doesnt need a tune. now I figure no tune= no power gain. soon I will re-tune with the jlt. I see your in Jersey. Im actually from west caldwell in essex county. my buddy use to work at stage 1 motorsports i believe the name is. hes not there anymore. well got to run. going to church.

Thanks for the compliment,

I'm actually from Montreal but I have a lot of family in that area.
Wayne, Parsippany, Morris Plains.
I drove down that day for the anual JDM track day

there's nothing "wrong" with it, to each his own... but i think it ruins an otherwise nice car. i wasn't attacking the guy, he said "please tell me what you think of it"
