So I figured I'd update this post with how much I've took off running with this car LOL. Kinda got the bug to mod (as I do with pretty much every car I own) and went overboard in the course of roughly two month's time. Since purchase I have now installed from it being a stock Flex...
- Airaid Intake
- AVS Ventshades
- Stubby Antenna
- Kicker Hideaway 11HS8 Sub
- SCT X4 Tuner w/ Unleashed 93 & 87 custom tunes
- 170 T-stat
- 3-Bar MAP
- NGK Colder Plugs
- UPR Catch Can System
- Dropped it on H&R Springs
This thing is fast! Like, slip the tires into 2nd gear fast...and I haven't even gotten a tune revision yet! Took it to the track (local 1/8th mile) and 'wowed' a lot of people. I plan on hitting the track again on Sunday to get some logging done and see what else Torrie can pull out of this engine. Needless to say, I'm in love, and have the bug to keep upgrading! This thing offers the best of all the worlds. Something I can haul my three kids around with, enough cargo space to fit all my mobile DJ equipment into for my weekly gigs, the ability to tow my trailer, and I can still have an absolute blast driving it around like a madman and hit the track with respectable times. Next on the want list is a set of downpipes, and eventually I'd like to look into adding a watermeth kit. Here's a few pics of it after I finished the spring install this past weekend (also posted these over in the suspension area, but this is a nice little "running record" post for all my mods as I install them!)
