Man, I love those rotofab intakes, I wish they'd give us some love.

Engine covers look great as well.

Who did your tuning?

Thank you.

I had Late Model Throttle in Waukesha, WI do the tune.

They thought they could've squeeze a little more timing out, but I stored the car for the winter and I most likely had some poopy stale fuel or winter blend 93 octane in the tank....oh well.

I apologize for Hi-jacking.

Your SS is a sexy beast.  If I would have had another 5k in the bank at the time.  I would have bought one.

Thanks 14 TUX BL!

When originally posting my thread, it was never intended to start a "what car is better" or "AWD vs RWD" argument, but such is the internet. As everything in life, people will choose what ever product best suits their preferences, personality and/or overall tastes. I enjoyed my SHO very much, I simply decided to go in a different direction.

Understood.

I actually like the SS, very nice car and as fast as a stock Mustang GT. And as you probably know, MT recently tested an SS and called it "The New Benchmark Sport Sedan":

QuoteWith that said, I did get the SS tuned a couple of weeks ago...

Basline with Rotofab Intake = 366 RWHP / 373 RWTQ

RotoFab CAI & Dyno-Tune = 390 RWHP / 388 RWTQ

Really nice results. Did you run the SHO on the same dyno? Numbers on that for comparo?

Best of luck to you and your car, stay safe!

I stopped reading posts because I don't want to get into needless arguments, just want to go down with this final thought if that's ok:

SHO-Time originally posted on his SS, a car he was clearly proud of. I wish him the best!

My response was/remains it's a great looking car with equally great performance. But for me, I needed a one-solution AWD performance sedan, and the SHO fit the bill (plus, I'm a Ford guy to a fault).

I wish our SHO's pulled 13.0's stock (C&D says the auto SS is even a tenth faster at 12.9) but I'll have to be content with my 13.79 non-PP bone stock ET, which doesn't carry a $1300 Gas Guzzler Tax equipped with an automatic.

Bottom line is the SS is a commendable car that has earned respect in the performance sedan market, as well it should.

PEACE

Thanks 14 TUX BL!

And I had these custom painted engine covers made






Damn... those covers look sweet.... been debating to get that but really saving up for some welds wheels for the ss
