My name is a ChrisJ. I bought the car in Virginia and drove it back to my temporary home in Kentucky. I work for the DOD as a Network/Server Engineer but have been made to do this manager duty crap for the past 2 years which sucks; I am also a disabled vet. Bigtime tech nerd that plays way to much destiny on ps4 and gears of war on xbone. I am 33 years old, married, 3 kids, 2 cats and a dog. I am originally from Bullitt County but have moved around due to the military. I live in both Williamsburg, VA and Elizabethtown, KY. Some may know me from other forums as I am pretty well known in the mustang community. I stepped out of my last pony in 2010 when the car seats just didnt fit anymore. I have since drove an 08 acura tl type-s and recently picked up a 2015 sho. The sho is tastefully modified IMHO with k&n cai, 3 bar map, 170* tstat, ngk plugs, livernois catted downpipes, magnaflow catback, vta, h&r lowering springs and unleashed tune. I am here to learn more about the platform and look into other avenues that this modded family cruiser can do.

Almost forgot. I also own a 2014 Dodge Durango R/T Blacktop Edition with a full flowmaster exhaust system and a drop in. The TL type-s just have a drop in K&N.

In my spare time I like to detail cars, turn wrenches, hang with the family, build computers and play video games.

Welcome to the community, Chris, congrats on the new ride, and you are right, it's a sleeper, AND a beauty (insert name of Disney movie here)!  Williamsburg is an idyllic town for visitors, but I have no idea what it is like for the "locals".  In KY, you need a fast car to keep up with traffic LOL.  Fine work detailing the SHO btw.  Post some pics of your other/past rides as well if you like, we are pic hogs!

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!

Williamsburg isnt bad being a local but during the summer it can get crowded. I was at Fort Meade for 2 years as well and found it way more busy of an area. Yea loads of fast cars out here in Louisville. We host the 405 guys here every year for NMRA but thats been going on long before the street outlaws show was around. Justin is from Louisville. I will dig up some past cars.

I am trying to go to either an Airaid intake setup or go back to stock with just a drop in. But dont have the stock box as it didnt come with the car. Probably do hotpipes this year.

I havent even got to correct it yet sadly. This summer I cant wait so I can put some serious time into it. Probably be a 30/40hr correction is my guess.

I also hate those brake caliper covers. Just have to have time to pop the wheels off to remove them.
