Shirts!!!

They run small and I'm sure it will shrink. So order two sizes bigger than you need...

Its a nice shirt. I probably won't be ordering one though, not bc I wouldn't wear it but I dont know about any of you guys on this forum but my GF teases the living $$$$ out of me for being a member as it is....saying things like....did you ask your forum if you can go out tonight, always teasing if I have permission to do something other than following or posting on the forum..sometimes I play back and tell her she has to sign a permission slip for the forum to allow me to accompany her to dinner! Shes got my friends asking me to...did the forum say you can? So with all the running jokes surrounding my involvement here...she would die and take it to a whole new level if I sported a t shirt of any kind that had to do with a SHO or a forum! So to save my own a$$ from torment I cant purchase one.

Maybe if you ask nicely, they'll make you a matching bra and panty set for her to wear (with the forum logo emblazoned on it)...

This way you can always proposition her exclaiming confidently that the forum gave you permission to......

So this way you can bang all that angst out of her. Be relentless now......

She'll fall in line eventually. Hahahaha.

LOLLLLL! My fiancee just has learned to deal with my antics.. She knows she can't stop me so she doesn't say too much about it. Thankfully that is. Should had seen her face when she came home to her garage parking spot filled with SHO interior

bpd1151 · March 29, 2019, 10:33:54 AM

I've been equally stupid about the antics. For years now, and not just with this build either.

Although even I was hesitant to come home and place these giant @$$ 'SHO' signage letters on her beloved dining room table just so I can clean them up and what not.

I thought, if this doesn't send her over the edge, I'm golden.

It.

Was.

Close.

LOL.

OH MYYYYYYYY .....

Hahahhaha, that's great.

I opened the garage, got in the SHO and started her. Then she threw a fuel light at me, with a DTE of only 16 miles. So I promptly turned her off and got into the ST and went about my business. My closest fuel station with E54 is 13 miles away, I like to live dangerously.

I also purchased a Ford Performance Tune for the ST. So....

I had a hunch you weren't going to leave it stock! Did you ask Brad if he could tune it? Or does the Ford the retain the warranty in some way?

Doesn't Mountune(sp?) performance parts retain your warranty?

FWIW my wife promptly said no to me trading in the Fiesta SE for the ST.... but she puts up with so much car stuff from me I didn't argue....

Considering I was already working out the timing to get my Mycalibrator switched over from the SHO to the ST... so I could pop the tune on it before I drove off..

What have I done today , well my SHO just got the sawzall taken to the 3rd cat and that dumb heavy as hell resonator . Got some straight pipe clamped in place . Finally got a 70 degree day here in NY.

802SHO · March 30, 2019, 02:55:31 PM

Hell yeah 18SHO! Free up that hp! I am still in need of removing my 3rd cat as the shop that I hired to work on my exhaust refused to remove it for federal law reasons. I'm going to replace it with a stainless steel x pipe. Which will get interesting as I already have my new stainless exhaust incorporating an x pipe. I will end up with 2 xpipes. This will amount to minimal gains but enhance the sound quite a bit. I'm excited to hear it when it is completed.

It definitely freed up some HP for sure and more throttle response. Sounds better too but not loud cruising at all. Best 40 bucks I've ever spent . If I were you I'd just cut it out yourself and clamp down straight pipe in it's place. Zero need for that cat it was so unnecessary when there's already 2
