Last week I finally got a JLT II CAI and Brenspeed tune. I'm running the 91 octane. That was a very easy install, and I'm not the most technically inclined person in the world. This made my car MUCH more aggressive feeling.

I also got the factory wing removed and a new rear spoiler put on. The body shop carried the black from my hood and roof over the decklid. Eventually I'll have them paint the rear bumper too.

A buddy of mine has been helping me with my audio system. This system will be for Rock - No rap in my Mustang! We've spent about 25 hours just doing wiring and we're now pretty much done with that phase. We also applied sound deadner to the front doors. Next we'll install speakers and amps, and fiberglass the back of the plastic part of the front door panels. Here's my system:
Head Unit: Pioneer Premier DEH-P980BT
Front Door Subs: CDT 8" EF-8 - Amp is Eclipse EA2000 (http://hostedmailsecurity.symantec.com/redir/?5BOVEVd7dTzqbMVBxyVI06jHivE2tfIT6kOTkbaX2vSVv8-xae4xEi512DJRGwd1lAils82gTtqgGS16I18r5MMnKu1SnNoqj 6DQXy6yww0MKm2h02hJZYy1PN5YCgGm6z0i3t5OM45CNIf38j2 jSxsG-j8lb3hwo3Z6wAZEn71yoO1W3hWHUy8wsk6nhx0JkbOEIhub2UK nKd4m2Mj3fwaI1gp0EcxES8zfPf5HyWEcYg0G20Aa38OU6g8vY czgpcE3y3atgCc2B1xXgKlgop9zhxNMc3QXCXY_uZXTLuZPtPp wDasWGQ1iJyt9sKrjhKUYrhjKqenPhOepKedEI6Mmd96y0glmE q86zh0cdA3s_3VU3zrxIsrjjspoood_Ymd)
Front Door Mids: CDT 5.25" CL-E51 (I'll also be installing some CDT TW-25 tweeters - probably in the A-pillars) - Amp is Kenwood KAC-7202 (http://hostedmailsecurity.symantec.com/redir/?5BOVEVd7dTzqbMVBxyVI06jHivE2tfIT6kOTkbaX2vSVv8-xae4xEi512DJRGwd1lAils82gTtqgGS16I18r5MMnKu1SnNoqj 6DQXy6yww0MKm2h02hJZYy1PN5YCgGm6z0i3t5OM45CNIf38j2 jSxsG-j8lb3hwo3Z6wAZEn71yoO1W3hWHUy8wsk6nhx0JkbOEIhub2UK nKd4m2Mj3fwaI1gp0EcxES8zfPf5HyWEcYg0G20Aa38OU6g8vY czgpcE3y3atgCc2B1xXgKlgop9zhxNMc3QXCXY_uZXTLuZPtPp wDasWGQ1iJyt9sKrjhKUYrhjKqenPhOepKedEI6Mmd96y0glmE q86zh0cdA3s_3VU3zrxIsrjjspoood_Ymd)
Rear Deck:Kenwood 6x8 KFC-X680 - Unamplified
Trunk Sub: TC Sounds 12" TC-1000 - Amp is Pioneer GM-6200F (http://hostedmailsecurity.symantec.com/redir/?2OVsQsCzCXNJ5UsOMNsS039RFfQ1eDSrzaprG5BtxfXsLAvgB 72mCzAq38VAe4D6howdxAp3OMp3rK5gG2gL8fQdSwlcazaEUlo fj8z6wkqegi1h0I5Xx8QsI0i7Ixo65i1Zzb1X3VUE6v31tU96z Cb1X3w3CzAZYCyvkK8xEl51Bc93oi5z8xgnbwMd4nNoh5dhofg t6Ve1w1yQM6b1A2wO1gp3hIh6vCubn5RgpUw1k418k6hBMcwg_ Up6wOpg746kWxco5a33SxsGwMOj6z3zwoh0EO7ws3EwM2b3QXC XY_uZXTLuZPtPpwDasWGQ1iJyt9sKrjhKUYrhjKqenPhOepKed EI6Mmd96y0glmEq86zh0cdA3s_3VU3zrVIsrjjspoood_Ymd)
I'll also be using a Kicker KX2Active 2-Way Electronic Crossover to split the signal to the EA2000 & GM-6200F amps.

I just got new 20" Black Chrome Bullitts for my 'Stang! The pictures don't do them justice. The front rims are 8.5" wide and the rears are 10" wide. No more spinning when I launch http://www.iowa-aquaria.com/forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif Tell me what you think...

Won't the shorter antenna lead to slightly worse FM reception? If so, I can't do it because I live in the middle of nowhere and have a hard enough time pulling in stations. And I'm not going with Satellite radio for some time.

I have a 14" shortie and have suffered no reception loss, if anything, it got a little better!

Indeed, it looks great. I didn't think CDC was making that hood scoop any more. I like how you carried the black over the top and back to the rear of the car. Now you need the CDC classic shin spoiler on that baby. Good job and keep it up.

Lovin' the Black Chrome.......I wasn't aware that anyone was doing that again... The process was banned once upon a time supposedly because of the "toxic" chemicals used.

Those have to be the coolest wheels i have ever seen on a mustang. I really want those. Do you notice much of a different ride with 20s?

Thank you - you should see them in person though. When I ordered them I was hoping that would be the case. I kept my fingers crossed and once I got them and put them on, I thought to myself... "Those have to be the coolest wheels i have ever seen on a mustang." ;)
The ride isn't much different. I was prepared for a much rougher ride. Bumps in the road don't feel any different, but rough/coarse roads or gravel streets do feel "rougher" indeed. I actually wanted 18's but they only come in 20's. I am quite pleased with my purchase.

Here's the deal... I'm old school... I don't really like the looks of the lowered cars as much, although many of you pulled it off and your cars look great. Eventually I'll just get some taller tires. A few guys here are running 255/40/20 & 295/40/20 setups. Those look perfect to me and will be on my car someday.

Yeah, +1 I thinks so too.

I think your car looks great. Different decklid spoiler but it's not bad, just different.

I think you did a great job with your car.:)

Oh yeah, +1 for a shorty attena too but not a big deal.
