I edited my post. Not sure you will see that. Turns out, the stock AT tires are the same weight as these Nittos!! So I lost 5lbs per wheel in this switch, believe it or not!

Can you do anything with a programmer now that you've added a blower to add some more sauce?

The files were actually uploaded and installed by the Ford dealership. They have a deal with ROUSH to do that for free as part of the supercharger pack when you get it done by Ford. I have a tuner, but I am not messing with it yet. If I go full exhaust and a custom tune, these will put down 500whp and pull mid to high 11s (Mine is a crew cab, so might be a smidge slower) in the 1/4

I make high performance connecting rods on CNC machines
and I don't know a damn thing about race cars.. or cars in general..

I can drive them. I'm real good at running red lights

Well, maybe when I finally break my rods, I'll give you a shout lol Do you make them custom, or are they specced only for certain applications? Rods are almost always the first thing to go when making big hp

Averaging around 12.5mpg currently, but thats with about 90% city and 10% highway. WIth 50/50, you will see about 14-15

I would not put a Borla exhaust on anything; I've heard one has to TIG weld it on. Stick to Flowmaster or Magnaflow where you can just MIG weld it on. Borla is way overpriced & is not the quality of the 2 mentioned above, just my 2 cents. rt...

Dude the 0-60 is no joke!

Magnaflow is ok sound wise.

If you want to have more of a rumble sound, see if SLP offers an exhaust for your setup. Flowmaster is good too sound wise. Corsa is probably one of the best ones, but they are also the most expensive.

I love the smooth sound of an S design muffler. Not sure which ones are S designs though, other than the Borla and Mac that I have on the Mustang. The Mac has a lot of drone and I def don't want that on a daily diver
