Thanks. I've been contemplating that for years, and I was finally convinced to try it. Guess it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

got dyno'd and got my stillen license plate holder that goes in the tow hook. i hit 278 at the wheels on a mustang dyno which is supposedly 10% low, running lean since i added ART pipes and TXD2, retune is in the near future. texas is no longer a fix it ticket, freakin $200 now.

if you add 10% (the amount it is alledgedly low) it put it at 305.8. i am really lean but i figured i would be since i changed intakes, went from hfc to ART pipes, and went from invidia gemini to motordyne tdx2

Yes, the 1080 CF vinyl wrap. Better for exterior applications and curvy parts. I used the same stuff for the bottom lip of my Nismo v2 bumper.

you have me wondering now, like i said i know i am really lean and it as almost 100 degrees here today. i am getting retune in the near future to correct the lean, and then i will see what i am at. i think cobb tuning down here has a dynojet, may see what i hit on theirs. i got to reading that mustang dynos there are alot of variables, on the same dyno today a g37 with art pipes and tdx2 (what i have) he hit 309.

I would guess you're at atleast 310whp on a dynojet. You need to do some dyno pulls at SOHO soon and get a good DJ number.

Not for most... but I started wrapping blue accent pieces on my Z in a similar style as the 911 GT3RS. Now I need a SBC wing to pull off the look.
