2016 Taurus SHO pp Shadow Black

Spent some money and time on the phone,

Ordered a TiAL MV-S for the AJP Boost Regulator Mod from Import Racing, in FL (best price I could find since they offer 5% off and free shipping)

Ordered a 60 degree bend, 1.75" OD aluminum pipe from CX racing in CA, so that I can weld it to my EcoPowerParts hot pipes (got the TiAL BOV option!).

Ordered 10 ft of 6mm vacuum line, a 1.75" OD Silicon Hump Connector, and a piece of Stainless Steel joiner pipe in 1.75" OD from SiliconIntakes in CO

Also ordered some black caps, for going VTA form McMaster Carr in IL. Had to order 50 of them, so if anyone needs a few let me know...

Now I just need to wait till I visit my parents for christmas, so I can install my SW catless downpipes (from AJP), and get my wideband A/F gauge finally finished installed (everything is ready except the actual wideband connection).

After that, I can do all of the cutting/drilling/fab to get the wastegate ready for install, and then have a friend weld the aluminum for me. Then I gotta stop spending money on the SHO for parts, and start saving for a down payment on a house.

Busy schedule!  Hope all goes perfectly :)

Thanks! Hopefully I can manage a low 12 pass on the car after the downpipes as well, tracks in FL are open till the first week in January!

Really?  A bird ...?
Not sure what else leaves white liquidy stuff with a turd in the middle of it... Right on my hood.. I washed the car down and rolled her right into the garage...We do have birds that get into our garage...

Now that being said..I do have kids..So god knows what half of the weird sticky stuff in my house is...

That bird is a legend back at the nest I bet. Held it in, flew in the garage and bombed the car!  Darn birds.....

Yesterday got a month unlimited wash at the local high end wash place and also went through their "wax tunnel", car looks fantastic.

Today, changed my oil for the 2nd time (1850 miles on it so far).  I know, twice already!?!?  Yes, still old school about new cars wearing off the edges as you drive it and also think that for what it does, oil is cheap insurance.  And installed my new oil heater, I'll most likely be using that this coming weekend, getting colder again next few days.

BTW,  used that new Pennzoil Ultra Platinum oil.  Meets or exceeds all Ford requirements and has a pour temp of -48 C!  Any thoughts on that?
