I went into the dealership to test drive the new ST to replace my old one. "High Command" insisted on the SHO because there were some issues with the ST.(The seats were unbearable IMHO)

She said I've been a little bitchy since trading my '09.

A most excellent decision by the CIC.  Have fun, and break into the 9's :D

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Planning to do the same as with the '09.  TVS blower, tune, injectors, offroad X, and Dr's.  Should be enough for mid to high 10's.

I'd have to use my executive powers to pull something like that off only to be vetoed.  :chop:

I assure you though it's not my head that would be getting  chopped.

Congratulations.

It's actually mine.  I was at work while she went to the dealership and did the papers.  I have no doubt I'll get it to run high 11's bone stock.  I got my '09 down to 12.16 @ 113 stock, and an 04 cobra to 12.62 @ 111 stock.  Just about finese and good track prep on stock rubber.
