Hey, was that taken at Estrella Mountain Community College?

 

[nik96]

Might as well be. That's the IMS building on the south side of McDowell between Dysart and Litchfield(across the street from my house). It's all the same shit tho...

 

[yamahaSHO]

I didn't realize you lived so close to my parents. I'll have to hit you up when I'm in AZ next.

 

[nik96]

Hell yeah, you're always welcome. BTW, what's the deal with your SHO? It seems so close to completion but I haven't heard anything about it in a while.

Haha, this shit is so off topic but IDGAF

As of today, the motor is in the car. Nevermind the junk valve covers for installation.

Meh, sounds OK. Better at full throttle tho.

My old '97

Intake sound...

Exhaust sound...

And gettin' rowdy ...

It was a fat automatic but it still clicked off 14.8 at 1200ft alt. I think it was one of the best looking of most SHO's Iv'e seen. Of course, I'm a bit bias;-)

Dude you freakin' rock... not only does your Gen III SHO look BADASS with the exhaust tips hangin out and the black Gen III wheels, but (I see in your sig) I've wondered what a Gen 1 or 2 would look like w/ Gen 3 wheels cuz for some reason I could never picture it in my mind... I like what I see! And I LOOVOEEEDDD the intake vid... I saw a vid where someone put the camera in their engine bay for a V6 SHO and it sound freakin' amazing, so I was kicking myself for not doing that w/ my Gen 3 before I sold it... so now I have piece of mind cuz I know how it sounds. Which... it sounds just... unworldly. Like hell on wheels man. B)

Plus I have plans to get a Gen 1 to run 13's someday... it's on my list :thumbsup:

Speaking of Gen 3 vids, here's some more for y'all... this is my '97 before I sold it. Again, just a great sounding car, not necessarily a hotrod.

2nd Gear pull (notice the secondaries at 3400 rpm...:rockon: )

Just revving

Those first 3 vids are with a K&N cone filter and the stock exhaust with the 3rd cat removed. Now this last one.... no exhaust.:bowdown:
http://videos.streetfire.net/video/7a95cb80-ca75-4481-9d3e-5dd30003b501.htm

And yes... that video does NOT do the unbolted exhaust vid any justice... seriously all you gen 3 owners, you NEED to do that...I'm serious, it should be federal law that all 96-99 Taurus SHO owners unbolt their exhaust at least once and drive it around. I can't even describe the sound...

Hope y'all enjoyed!!

Actually, I'll be making it spotless in a month for All Ford Day... Hoping to win my 3rd, 1st place trophy in the last 4 years for the '74 and up class (I didn't make it last year).
