What have you done to your Ecoboosted vehicle today?

Focus is still bricked in the driveway....

Starting the process of getting it to the dealer to have it flashed back to "as built" with their IDS.

Finally took the tuning plunge and got the auto octane tune from GH. Initial impressions... why didn't I do this sooner?! Such a significant difference...my mpg's are about to take a dip

So yesterday I decided to drive my other ford ('95 mustang GT convertible) to work as it was the last not raining day we are going to have for a solid week.  I received a phone call from my youngest asking if he could drive the SHO to school since it was there and he did not want to defrost his car (lame excuse but I had to appreciate the attempt however lame)  He has driven it before and is a good driver so I let him take it.

Apparently made a bit of a splash as it is the 3rd different vehicle he has driven to school.  Most kids had no clue what it was..  "A taurus?"  heh  He educated them on it a bit, as well as letting them know it was pretty much the strongest and fastest car on the grounds.  He and I had a good laugh about talking about it and some of the egotistic kids thinking their CAI upgraded honda's were faster than a lame Ford Taurus. 

During the talk a vanity plate popped into my head.  One that is fitting a SHO and how it can belittle people that have lots of $ in their hotrod sportcars.. 
I figured one of you might like it as a alternative to the usual Boat referrences.  "EGOKLLR"

On a side note the car made it home safe with no scratches, wrinkles or tickets added.

Egokllr I love it just like the face of someone that just bought a base Dodge charger

I think this video link will work, not sure.

Anyhow, after having been dismantled for nearly a month, with numerous (unexpected) delays..... finally got the SHO back up & running today. Woo Hoo!

Still have a few things left to wrap up, but we're 90 to 95% of the way done.

So here's a list of the new parts installed:

New upgraded/larger Intercooler from GH.
New upgraded/larger injectors from DW.
New upgraded DERALE Aux Tranny Cooler.
New upgraded/hardened Trans Mounts
New MSD Coils.
New MC 534 Plugs.
New OEM Radiator.
New OEM Radiator Hoses.
New Front Wideband o2 Sensors.
New LED Light's in BOTH Heads & Tails.

Also did a complete flush on ALL FLUIDS..... Oil, Trans, PTU, & RDU.

Hoping to finalize everything by this weekend, and then plan on driving car (gingerly) out to Livernois Motorsports either this coming Monday or Tuesday for the following:

New/Revised Custom Dyno Tune.
Installation of the LMS Upgraded HPFP.
Installation of the new LMS Tuning Device.

Finally, I'd like to thank Mr. Matt Hencinski owner of Finishline Cars located in BOTH Lockport, IL. & Joliet, IL.

I owe him a tremendous debt of gratitude for all the instrumental work he performed on my SHO, as well as allowing me to get my hands dirty in order to get down and dirty myself.

Here's a short video link, which I think will work, along with a couple of pics of the new trans mounts.

Finally, I snagged a fully functioning torque converter for my 2010 (which has 4 bolts, not 3 like most other model years) from a SHO he parted out. I'll be sending this off to GH for modifying/fortifying/upgrading etc.

Even more great times await! As always, stay tuned..... !

Super sick!  Can't wait to hear how well it drives and learn how much more power you put down on that dyno!  Awesome build!

My prediction 11.0 at 122 easily

[StealBlueSho]

Lots of good stuff happening on BPD1151's car for sure! Hoping to get my turbos/downpipes/dyno tune completed here soon with a track run to follow... see how close I can get to the existing record.. before BPD1151 raises the bar.

[SM105K]

Since it seems every 5.0 Mustang goes into hiding when I take the SHO to the Street Light to Street Light Grand Prix....I decided to provoke everyone.
