I decided to pre-order the BBK for the X.

Yay! I can't wait to see it!

At MAP's dyno day some guys were bad-mouthing the Xs. Between murlo and I, we should be able to fix that.

The Dom 2 is doing 450 on E85 (GST's Mustang dyno). I guess I'd be happy with low 400's at DB.

Just keep throwing money at it, then they will eat their words.

Keeping track is the best part for me. Thats awesome power though.

RS Motors got the coilovers & Whiteline roll center kit installed on Tuesday. I'm honestly not sure if I like the coilovers or not. These Street coils are noticeably better with some road conditions and worse with others. I am going to pull the guts out of my trunk tomorrow to adjust the rebound on the rears.

The 3/4" minimum drop on the front has been interesting. My jack just barely slides under the car. I think I'll probably keep it at this ride height year-round...dropping it any more sounds like asking for trouble.

I have a fuel leak near the fuel rail. I think the fuel hose is a little short for reaching the fuel filter on the firewall and is getting tugged on. I'll have to get the pieces together to fix that...not sure if I should get a longer hose or a different filter. The UR filter is noisy so replacing that might not be a terrible idea.

Can't wait until one of these arrives:

What coilovers did you get? Fix your fuel leak before your car burns to the ground!

Robispec Streets (KW v3). AMS is sending me a new fitting & hose since I bought the fuel rail from them. I have no idea who'd stock -6AN hoses and fittings locally--the last few times I've gone to general auto parts stores they only stock OEM parts...worthless.

Thanks! Was thinking about doing an fpr and replacing the return line as a future project. It'd be very nice to find the proper parts locally.
