What did you do to your S650 Mustang today?? 🙋🏻‍♂️

[freekshow02]

Upgraded the rear half shafts to err on the safe side. Also got the dual air/oil separator as well as the Steeda Stop the hop starter kit.

This is on my TO DO LIST. We will have to see what is what. Originally it was going to be this year but I'm looking at stepping down to 19" rims (my stock HP Dark Horse rims) and new PS4 tires which may push the half shafts and driveshaft until next year.

How are those FP rated ones? I thought most folks went to some non-Ford product?

The Ford ones are rated up to 1500hp, which is far more than this car will ever have. Got these ones because I knew exactly what I'd be getting into. All the others one seems to vary depending on who you talk to about what. Would rather buy once, cry once.

Works for me. I'm getting the FP Whipple Stage 1 in less than 3 weeks so am good with that.

Are you lowered at all and running what rims / tires?

I'm wondering if I'm going to have to swap out my 20s after the whipple install. I haven't seen any Steeda cars with a whipple and 20s :X

Im not lowered, I have the handling package though so its a tad lower already. I have the factory rims/tires which are 305 and 315/30R19. But they are summer only tires so I bought a second set of rims and tires that are all just 255/40R19 for my just normal daily driving when its cold for half the year. I don't see why you'd need to change tires when you get the whipple installed.

So this is the front end lowered on 20"s without the whipple.

Today I installed the Eurocompulsion Air Induction tubing for slightly lower intake temps. Pretty easy task.

So you're just worried about clearance with the extra weight from the supercharger? I could see that maybe being a problem, this was heavy as hell.

Correct. I'm more worried about the clearance. From what I am told, the supercharger adds a net 150(ish) lbs once you take off and add other parts etc. That might make the front sag a bit more and it's already like maybe a finger between the tire and the wheelwell lip.

And to keep this post on topic; I went and fingered my car.

EDIT: This might be a better angle to see from?

I now replaced both side mirrors and have 2 working turn signals on my Mustang!
