No-pictures-update:
Akebono calipers have been SOLD
I bought PowerGrid Endlinks
Wilwood F+R 6/4 BBK has been purchased and is on its way
ART pipes are IN but I have an exhaust leak now so I have to replace some gaskets.
Motordyne sways, GT SPEC bars, and Powergrid endlinks are going in soon, with an alignment after.

Im planning to go vortech over next winter...this is my current wish-list.
Haltech Engine management
Vortech Tuner kit
1 step colder NGK platinum plugs
Koyo 36 mm rad
Mishimoto Fan shroud
Mishimoto Oil catch can
Mishimoto Transmission cooler
Mishimoto 25 row dual pass Oil cooler
Greddy Thermostatic Sandwich plate
Greddy Multi D/A Gauge
AEM Uego AFR Gaug
Transgo valvebody upgrade
GTR Injectors - CHECK
Walbro Fuel pump
AAM Basic Fuel Return w/ CJM Sender unit kit
3.12 pulley
1 piece charge pipe (martyg35)
So yeah I guess you could say its getting pretty serious.
I plan to DIY install everything, and am that Sasha @ onpoint tuning can install it for me.
Links to DIYs on ANY of the things I mentioned above would be very appreciated. I will have to search them myself later. I have lots to learn, and am very excited to get started on this project.
Big shout out to TunerMax and CandlestickPark for the help and advice that they have given me so far. There are multiple people who have helped me and I am very grateful!
Oh, wilwoods, sways, endlinks, tie bars, alignment and grounding kit removal are expected to be next Tuesday.
This is something I have been working on lately:
I am planning to productize that and sell it. Hopefully it will chip into the vortech fund.
Im also planning a retrofit:
- Ebay black housing headlight assemblies (200$)
- FX-R 3" bixenon projector ($315) - will go in high beam / fog light bucket. Will function as high/low
- Clear lens (Free if I go with FX-R)
- Osram CBI bulbs
- V3 Tritons in turn signal - will be wired as DRL / turn signal and will dim at night. ($100)
- Red xb led halos behind the projector shroud. Might black out part of the ring to give "angry eyes" effect ($50)
-Morimoto Ballasts
- G37-R or Gatling gun shrouds
- Halogen projector. Will go in low beam bucket. Will function as fog light
- 3000K Halogen bulbs.

When the lights were sequencing during brake light operation, it is because the turn signal was being activated while the brakes were on. Since the turn signal overrides the brake, both while it is on and for a set amount of time after it turns off, the sequential action of the turn signal can be seen, even while braking.
Picture the taillights on a brand new mustang, it was designed to imitate that.
