802SHO 2010 Build

Just glad to see new parts being developed, and proving out nicely in the field.  A big thumbs up to GearHead.
 
Yes sir GearHead has done an amazing job with both the intercooler and turbos.  Its one thing to see a picture of the GH upgraded IC next to the stock IC but when you have them right in front of you, can see the difference, feel the difference......it really sinks in like....unbelievable!  No wonder our cars hear soak so much and easily....the stock IC is laughable at best!

Should have installed my torque mounts last night!  I forgot I had them lol

Pics of the new exhaust that is finally complete...doube x pipe 2.5" stainless turbos back!  Butttt looks like he saved a smidgen of the 3rd cat to save the flanges DOOHHH!!!!!
 
Quite a bit louder he said 🤘😈YES!  One xpipe but two?  Plus the quad tips just magnify everything 😂 neighbors will hate me....MORE

Got the new GH IC installed last night!  What a pain those lower radiator hose clamps....uuuuuuuggggghhhhhhh I get 😠 when I spend A LOT of time on little things like that!  Alky pump was very much in the way, thankfully I was slated to swap it out anyway as the original had to be dismounted.  Everything went fairly smooth minus those hose clips.  I changed the oil and went local so I got Royal Purple High Performance oil not the HPS and a K&N filter 2011.  Drained all the radiator fluid, well most of it and replaced with some valvoline 16.99 a gallon stuff.  It was rhe most expensive and said Ford so I went with that lol!  No flush this time around just new coolant and topped it off with Royal Purple ICE.  Jacked passenger side up and burped her 3+ times.  Didn't get my plugs changed over from SP534 to SP542 yet.  The 534's only have 3k on them so I will be fine in the interim. 

First drive today since October 2018!  Dropped it off for exhaust work.  Looks goofy with no exhaust tips and front chin spoiler missing. 

Boy was it nice to hear her purr and enjoy the ride to the shop.  Coolant temp hovering at 170-180 plenty of heat, no leaks, purged my new meth pump no issues, no leaks.  Starting off the year right.

Looking Good 802SHO! Keep it coming!  :thumb:  BTW Fixed the ^^^ PIC for ya. Z  :)
 
Picked up the car and boy does she sound hoggish!  No sound bites yet.

Dropped off to another shop awaiting turbo install.  AJP instructed me to detune back a bit bc of the increase in air flow to side with caution until we start the tuning process.  Back to 3bar, 93 octane 14 psi base tune.  Meth not necessary but I'll leave it activated as a precautionary measure.  Worst case I run slightly rich.

Get a LiveWire homie, your life will change.

Well I have the Interceptor scan gauge.  I can monitor just about everything too.  It plugs right into my OBD2 port.  Its basically the same except I can only display two at a time where you can display 6?  Correct me if I'm wrong.

You are wrong good buddy.  Any PID can be uploaded and I monitor 9 PID's in real time.  It displays mins and maxes for that key cycle, and I can set alarms for various things.  Coolant too hot?  Boom alarm sound.  Trans temp too hight?  Boom Alarm.....

Sm105k always pushing the livewire. Making me feel inadequate with my BDX.

The way I flog mine, I want to know everything that is going on in real time.

I do it like I do it at home. With my eyes closed pretending it’s someone else doing it.

My man, you truly don't understand the gravity of the situation until you have sat on your hand for good 20 mins, then proceed.....
 
Lolol!  That's right! 

I am a bit jelly that Livewire is super slick Easton!  And gauges are cool the more the merrier! 

Me (looks down, kicks a rock)  I can set alarms too!  😒

I can survive with it lets put it that way and do performace tests, 0-60,1\8 mile and quarter.  I keep it on knock and boost mostly, and cycle through ambient and iat2, transmission temp and coolant temp.  Mine says Taurus SHO when it starts up so there!  Take that!  Lol

The interceptor gauge is a great single gauge only upgrade.  Some ppl run two to view 4...

Livewire is a step above though!  For sure!  Maybe one day soon I'll get it.  And for interior mods I want the new gauge pod that EPP has that crash created.  Dash candy!

I ran 2 interceptor gauges in my Srt-4 they do work really well.
 
Haha boys! Good times.  I just hate clutter in the cockpit of my car.  At some of the speeds I travel I don't want to take my eyes off the road to cycle gauges.  The aeroforce gauges are nice.  I had a pair in my TT Camaro. 

I have the Livewire in my eye line, and I can see if the alarms start going off without taking my eyes off the road.  Plus literally you cannot see it if you look into the car.
