New Guy here from Vegas... Have an 11' SHO with all options and 20in wheels. Just picked it up last week and had tints done so far... Ordering some stuff this week, going to start with CAI, tune, therm, spark plugs, 3Bar, and a set of springs.


Next I want to get rid of the ugly grill, and black out the trims/decals, and either powder coat the wheels black or pick up a new set...


Anyone on here in the Vegas area? Look forward to reading from all you pros!

Welcome, VegasClubGuy, and congrats on the new ride!  Have you decided which tuner you will be going with?  Def post pics of the SHO (both with/without tints if possible)!

Was thinking of doing a custom tune, one of the guys here in Vegas that did some work on my 16 Mustang, is something of a turbo genius

Custom tune sounds intriguing!  Do you know if he is using Cobb or HP Tuners or SCT or ...?  BTW, I added the "normal mode" pic to your post :)

Thanks for the normal mode! :) He doesn't utilize handheld devices, he's always flashed the computer, he's a mustang guy, but big big turbo guy. Voodoo Racing if you want to check him out on Facebook.

Hey man, I was ribbing you a little bit, but I am going out there for Black Hat and Def Con. I'll msg you for sure, and if nothing else just grab a beer with a fellow EB owner.
