so what's a build thread in your understanding? i was under impression that a build thread is something you do to the car that is not stock? yeah i am not planning on making 600 awhp with this car so that doesn't consider a build thread? I am planning on making 400+ awhp with it though.

Yes, someone has cut me off today obviously....to comment on this like so. What a damn shame.

IMO...I think this is a great start to a "build thread"...labeled as such because it's not built yet.

The time and effort to write this up in such a readable manner is greatly appreciated and adds depth to the community.

Great looking car and I look forward to your steps in the future.

And, I want that trunk organizer...cool

yeah, i think as long as there is an intent. when i was building my z06 i did the thread from the very beginning on corvette forum. it started out with powder coated calipers and tinted tail lights and is still on going with built motor/trans and twin turbos, etc.

So after seeing some of your other highly modded rides.

How do you like the SHO in comparison to the others?

And, seeing that you're into doing some fantastic builds...are you aware of the Livernois built motor available for these?

i bought it as a winter car. i couldn't find anything else that would fit the category. had to be awd and had to be fairly fast. i like the car. i am very impressed with the features. so far so good. it is quite, rides fairly smooth and of course moves out :)

and yes i am aware of livernois, i have one of their engines in my mustang so yeah... i don't know if i want to do anything of that nature to the car. i probably will end up doing the whole thing again but for now i am trying to hold off on it and invest in one of my businesses. and i really only drove a car for like a month and a half, since than my girlfriend has been driving it. so for the past 2.5 months i've sat in the car like twice lol

Just called a local Ford dealer looking for a net price and availability on this item. They wanted to sell it to me at the list price of $237.14..Freakin scoundrels. I told them to go pound sand.

How about $99.99?  http://www.ebay.com/itm/Cargo-Area-Organizer-Ford-Accessories-9A5Z-78115A00-AA-09-15-MKS-10-14-Taurus-/291399002413 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Cargo-Area-Organizer-Ford-Accessories-9A5Z-78115A00-AA-09-15-MKS-10-14-Taurus-/291399002413)

I see you saw that one too :)  But at various online Ford sites, you can def get a price of $190 or less (plus s/h if not local).

I added some wheather tech floor mats to my car to complete my build last week....They really set it off and separate me from the pack.

Just logged in after some time away.  Getting like the old CB radio and or some sport chat boards.  Too little tolerance.  So you can piss further than me.  And here I go-away again.  Maybe if i come back in far future some will have matured.

"Sound" upgrades!  Stance looks great!  Do make sure the CAI seal is proper against the hood.

Post by: SHOnUup on July 14, 2015, 08:41:40 AM
Looking good...that rubber lip you put on the CAI box should fold outward though. As SHODDED mentioned, I'd chalk test that thing too. Most cases that thing doesn't make a tight seal to the hood liner because of the contour of the hood liner.
