Ha! I do have a bad habit... I went into my LMS cart and realized I still had the HR springs in there... it took me a bit to remove them as I was staring at my whip envisioning how it would look lowered... lol...
In any event... I have had my fill of datalogging, tracks, etc for the time being... I am figuring a mid 12 second SHO with an OTS tune from LMS should be sufficient for now...
I do have a thought on picking up a PI, gutting it, and building it out.. funds depending..

Off the top of my head: Hotpipes with the wastegate mod, per the setup I had fabbed up a while back (probably 3k miles on it if that). SW catless downpipes, were new when I got em, again probably 3k (they were the ones AJP had gotten from SW with the corrected O2s). 170 Thermostat(
). 3 bar (likely keeping for an F150 spare). Airaid intake, I put like 7k on it, but got it off AJP so not sure on the total. Also probably gonna part with the crash gauge pod (though it needs some light repairs on the clips. I'll likely keep the gauges though unless someone really wants the pro sport boost and analog A/F that are there.Im still not 100% on selling the stuff off, but it doesn't look like I'll be getting into a SHO anytime soon based on having just bought a house and the multitude of mustang projects now (finish my '03, fully build the '92) so I'll probably get a nicely setup Eco F150, tossing around an X-sport as an option as well, but tbh I'd rather go with the F150, and nothing will really swap over to that unfortunately. Thinking that since I have a house now I need a good vehicle for getting random appliances/furniture/etc. as well as something that can trailer whatever car I wanna race on the weekend in case something brakes, because babying a car even 40 miles is a pain in the butt, and depending what gets broken, sometimes that isn't even doable.
all i know is wouldn't sell crashes pod cheap. lots of 2nd gen 4/5er's are looking for one. since got one of his pods had talked with crash of trying to do an A pillar pod like BPD's but he was hesitant then got sick & we lost him. hope that someone in his family kept his sho. the fun part well not so fun was when i was having tranny gremlins & took back to the dealer & the serv mgr telling me he didn't know a gauge pod was an option on the sho, that was back in '12 or so when they dealers didn't know much about them. did they ever know much about them!!!
Just email Brad and quit deluding yourself.. Once a junky, always a junky. Embrace it and enjoy it. Though in your case I would continue and get thru a decent break-in before feeding the beast. I could probably hold off about one tank of gas, I think that is about how long I had my car before I put a tune on it... But 10k probably be better target...stealbluesho said:
Really happy for you and jealous man. Color is about the only thing I would change on my car and it would be for blue.

Yea, Brad is a beast, but I dunno if I want to deal with datalogging again which is nothing against him... the wear and tear with that is a concern. Besides, LMS is going to hook me up with their 2013+ tunes for just the cost of shipping the device. Can't beat that....
I am thinking of waiting until 10K or more.. but at the rate I drive... that will be 6 months or longer!
stealbluesho said:
Maybe my case is a 1-off but when my SHO was got totaled out, Brad said if I got another one he would set me up with a tune for it for free. I bet he would hook you up on another tune setup for the new car one way or another. Plus you don't have mail the X4 back to anyone (unless you left your 2010 on a tune from the SCT device, and still there is a way to get it back to unmarried without sending it off IIRC). If it was on the LMS tune, the SCT is unlocked and ready to marry to another car, without any extra work. That is why my X4 isn't listed in all those parts, it will be used on whatever my next vehicle DD is. Man I really need to wait before I get a truck, but I want one baaaad....
ZSHO said:Congrats on the new aquisition buddy.
I must say a smart move Indeed.
Best of luck and enjoy the SHO. Z
BTW whats the Build date?
Yea, I think it was a good call as well! Thanks! That 2010 had ALL the typical issues of a first run car.
Build Date is 11/2016

True, and the price was more or less negotiated via test message with pictures of my car. The sales rep could have easily shopped that around the dealer before coming back with a number.
All in all.. the whole process took about 90 minutes total at the dealer... I was impressed..
Soooo clean... would be a shame to start modifying it....

Yea I noticed that too after I took the picture, it’s been pushed back down. Good eye Z! One day my engine bay may look as schweeeeet as yours.
What size clamps did you use? I just zip tied the last ones, never went back and properly clamped them.
And a quick glance over the motor suggest there has been quite a bit of updating since 2010.... and this SHO drives better than my 2010 ever did.
I am impressed with how well balanced the PP suspension is. It’s firm yet comfortable...
So the heating steering wheel was nice find.. didn’t know it had that. And the sync 3 is a disaster... I am going to miss the buttons.. and the analog tachometer... I don’t feel that the digital one is quite as accurate...
Overall it is a massive upgrade over the 2010... I know I had asked before if the upgrade was worth it... yes yes it is.
