Ok, so summer is here...mod season started a month or two ago. Let the mods begin!!
I have a 2009 429R, it has 3400 miles on it.
So, last year i bought the offroad mufflers from Roush. Those actually made the car Quieter than the exhaust that came on it. But, I had bought the stage 3 valance so I had little choice if I wanted the rectangle tips.
I had problems with the shifter so I had that switched out at the dealer for the "new" one that supposedly didn't stick. *it still sticks when hot* I love the look of the Hurst/Roush but, id rather have performance than looks.
The car is mostly around town with the occasional "once every two month 300mi road trip"
I stopped by a local performance shop and got some prices and ordered some new goodies but, I need your help continuing the list!
1. BBK X-pipe with hi-flow cats ordered and should be installed on Fri.
2. Ordered MGW short throw this morning.
3. Struts for the hood, *i hate the hood prop* should be installed Fri.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was thinking just bolt ons, and easy mods.
4. 4.10 gears with new rear end cover
5. SCT Tuner?
6. I like the Steeda CAI but, i might go with BBK
7. new pulley's but, if i'm not mistaking an upgrade that the 429 had over 427 is a smaller pulley?
8. new valve covers
9. radiator shield *perhaps a carbon fiber one to match the interior pieces*
10. Custom dyno tune, what's the average price per hour for that?
Feel free to give input on these things or if you have any ideas let me know.
