Stew's 2013 5.0 *pic heavy*

[stewarts2008]

Never got around to introducing myself and wanted to put up a build thread as well.

The pic order goes from stock to present. Feedback and questions welcomed!

Picking up from dealer. I ordered it from the factory while I was still in afghanistan. 2013 Track Pack, recaros, 301a.

First Mod! JLT Catch Can!

Axle Exchange Aluminum Driveshaft and Barton ShortShifter with Post 1 Bracket go on with 80 miles on the odometer.

Stock exhaust gets swapped to GT500s

J&M LCAs go on!

Resonator deletes welded in.

Accel Super Coils are up next.

Boss Intake Mani, Steeda 102mm CAI, and Steeda STB go on.

Needed new rubber. Nitto Invo 305/30-19 and 255/35-19 are ordered.

Suspension came in. BMR LCA relocation brackets, springs, UCA, Mount, Panhard, Koni STR.Ts shocks/struts, GT500 strut mounts.......

Factory exhaust wasnt cutting it. Full 3" Heart-throb H pipe system in. JEGs cat deletes in as well.

Finally, some new wheels for those Invos.

Finally, as she sits now. Paxton Novi 2200SL, ID1000s, JPC Breather Kit, and Vortech BAP.

I think im pretty much done with this project, but thats what I tell myself every, single time I finish a project. Like I said, questions about any of the stuff I have listed are welcomed!

Getting it Dyno'ed tomorrow. I will make sure to post the graphs and numbers!

curious how ull like the boss intake/paxton, and also how the invos will hook

 

[Blazer707@TBR]

Do you have any plans to actually track the car at all? Thats alot of money to drop into the car in a short amount of time.

Agreed.. I'm going to pull mine off too after doing a little reading, its like 10 lbs of unsprung weight.. They are only there to reduce NVH, and only seem to come on 3.73 cars. Nice build, I love threads like this :banana:

 

[shadowstang03gt]

Wanna sell that jlt catch can? Pm me if you wanna sell it. Car looks awesome.

Thanks for service too.

Same here. Getting a dyno tune so i can play until I get everything else ironed out.

So far, the boss IM is doing well.... will know more after the dyno. The invos hold pretty nicely on 2nd gear pulls and havent had a problem in 3rd yet.

No. Its a street car. I know about the money though, it kinda sucks sometimes. I kinda want to sell it sometimes, but then I end up working on it more.

I thought about it, just never got around to it. Im kinda burnt out right now as far as working on it goes.

hahahaha, just hit 4500 miles the other day! This is what happens when you sit in afghanistan for 8 months with 5.0/Modded Mustang and Fast Ford magazines!

yes I did. It had its moments, but overall is very do-able. The instructions have a picture for almost every, single step.

sick! what wheels are those?

 

[MeanGreen99GT]

Wow! Very nicely done sir! Good job

 

[Stevedotmil]

Great looking ride. Welcome back. Heading that way soon. Hopefully I will have some money to dump into my car when I get back as well. Or at least take a European road trip in the Stang with my woman for our 20th. Pretty much all the mods I want to do.

 

[beefcake]

turned out very nice my friend!

Have any side shots during the day? Also did you go with the pro-kit for springs? I might have missed where you said what springs went on.
