I posted this on other site. But a summary of my car.

I have a couple pix of engine bay. Will post when I get home tomorrow sometime. Also a couple of "stock" photos.

2011 Taurus SHO non-PP


Exterior mods:
1. Verde V-39 Parllax wheels, 20x9, 39 mm offset.
2. Hankook Ventus evo 2 tires, 275/40-20
3. Window tint @ 30%
4. Added SHO fender badges
*Considering rebadging trunk area to eliminate the corny ecoboost fugly emblem
*No other exterior mods considered at this time

Interior mods:
1. Replaced Mirosoft sync/Sony stack with Scosche FD-1447b kit
2. Installed Alpine INE-927HD head unit unit with NAV
3. Installed custom sub box in trunk to maintain factory look and space
4. Replaced door speakers with Alpine
5. Total system uses factory amp to drive factory deck speakers and front dash
6. New alpine amps drives door speakers and subs

After












System startup time:




Performance mods:
1. LMS stage 4+ tune (only 91 octane available)
2. Airraid CAI with pre-filter
3. 170* thermostat
4. SP 534 plugs at .030
*Considering downpipes and "some" free flowing exhaust. Exhaust cant be noisy. I like the stock sound
(quiet). Will be cost to performance decision and IF I keep car past 2 years. I change cars often.
*Have an eye on location for 100 octane race fuel. Will consider 55 gallon barrels to fill and mix my own 93 octane to enable 4X tune to be loaded.
*Dash command graphic, best 0-60 time. Ran out of real estate for true 1/4 time.




My best time, His worse time!

Looking very nice there OP, the interior is top notch though. But I bet those wheels in black would look killer on that car.

Dxlnt1

The wheels are black. Only the spokes and rim fronts are polished. Gives it an awesome accent, especially when clean

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!

So 13.7 is your quickest time?

This is tuned and basically at sea level?

Its quite a story. Elevation roughly 400 ft. LMS stage 4 tune. (before 4 plus). Full tank of gas.  I started a thread here asking about it. Wasnt sure if bad tranny would make car that slow. Transmission basically disintergrated that day. I THINK that kept car from performing. You can see my dashcommand time much better. And I ran out of real estate for that run so time would be a smidgen faster. After repairs, ran 1/8 track with SoCalBob in which we tied all runs.

Bobs view of same run.

Wanted a little more depth in my sound. So I replaced the 10" subs with 12". Also upgraded sub amp to Alpine PDR-M65. More power, more bass more rumpin with the funkin.

So out with the old......



In with the new.......
