[QUOTE="PhillyLS1, post: 12010402, member: 40573"] [b]My Vortech V3Si Build 8/21 Update[/b] Drove my Mustang (sterling silver Brembo GT) from Virginia to California with my girlfriend in her Mustang (gotta have it green Brembo GT) at the end of June. I never thought I would have done this in a Ford, but I'm glad I did. What a great experience. It was a total bucket list achievement for me, and I gotta tell ya, it was great (except for New Mexico). Averaged between 85mph and 90mph (most speed limits are 75 past Tennessee) and we got around 24mpg! We filled up with 93 octane up until we couldn't get it anymore. We stopped 3 times. Once in Arkansas, once in Albuquerque and then finally Oxnard California. All in all around 34+ hours of road time and about $700.00 in gas for both cars :) If you guys want I'll update this as a build thread. Here's the cars at Vortech's shop: [img]https://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/523771_10150944338476247_1444949439_n.jpg[/img] Up on the lift for a wideband: [img]https://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc7/480498_10150957786046247_1987244078_n.jpg[/img] Baseline Dyno: [img]https://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/523977_440908392609384_1018951959_n.jpg[/img] Green Car's Kit arrives: [ATTACH=full]348543[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]348544[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]348545[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]348546[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]348547[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]348548[/ATTACH] Randoms of my car at the shop: [ATTACH=full]348549[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]348550[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
