yes just the PP option, car weighs less with out sun roof, back canopy, active lane, sony (why pay $2,000 extra for sony? put my own speakers in at that price), and the heated seats plus i wanted suede seats so you lose that option anyway, got the car for a steal, brand new for 32k, traded my 2008 taurus limited in with 65k miles for 8K.

my car know has 5k miles on it i have had it for 5 months my fastest time was 13.84 stock at palm beach raceway

Hennessy max boost pack will be installed this year
drive her around like that for a little

after that i have in plan: custom downpipes, redo the internals on the turbos, and retune with meth kit i have a 8k budget for upgrades in the next year

Many of us have different tunes and very happy with them But as a old SHO man(1993 SHO) We never use Hennessey tune. Being in Fla. I would go with unleashed a very good company. I have Livernois only because I learn about them 1st but also very good but out of Detroit. Just my personal feeling I dislike Hennessey very very badly. I would never buy anything of their's!!!!!!!!!

What SHOman said...

Go get a dyno tune from Torrie at UNLEASHED.

Look at my times on a remote tune. Flash, datalog, upload to Torrie, repeat.

I cannot wait till the local AWD dyno is complete so he can do the remote dyno tune.

The suede looks pretty slick. And this marks my first, gazing upon the non 402a equipped center stack. I can't tell...is it clad in the awful high gloss piano black plastic, which scratches and swirls when sneezed on?

I like it better then the sony dash it's non gloss more matte grey I will take pic when I'm in car, have not scratched it yet lol, I also think it's more user friendly then the Sony set up with the small buttons on bottom.
But the sony system sounds a lot better then my car , but I can fix that

The high gloss on the Sony fascia is my worst nightmare. That s*** is so impossible to keep from swirling/holograming. I hate it.
But, I DO like the capacitive type buttons.

First.... Welcome!

Get tuned first.... Far and away the biggest performance bang for the buck! .... And a 3BAR MAP next.

IMHO... And that of others, Hennessy is overpriced by several hundred percent (like the $2400 CAI)... For the same money, or less, you could have 20% more WHP with EPP addions and an LME engine build. Like Mike's for instance with 617 WHP on the dynojet.

Still, have fun with the car whatever you do

Could you post a pic of the entire center cluster?

Looks much different...

Welcome to EBPF!

Thanks for posting that. Very interesring. Not sure why paying a premium for Sony should result in a PITA like that glossy fascia. That stuff is in my Mazda too and I thought I was going to have to kill my wife when she wiped dust off of it one day with a paper napkin.
