Brand new to the SHO platform. Would love input!

[BrenPrinz]

Hey guys, I've been very interested in the platform for a long time and done a lot of research, so when I finally came across this deal, I couldn't resist.

Highlights:
2011 Ford Taurus SHO Performance Package
72k Miles
GH Intercooler
Airaid Intake
Thunderstorm hi-flow DPs -LMS
OBX Cat Back exhaust system
Powerstop drilled/slotted rotors ceramic pads
Trans mounts
MSD Coils
H&R Lowering Springs
E30 and 93 tunes GH/Ortiz
SCT X4
2.5bar map sensor
170 thermostat
.028 spark plugs
Gt500 wheels and tires

This car has been meticulously maintained, all of the fluids changed regularly with name brand synthetics with receipts and dates.

The big question is NOW what. Will of course be contacting GH for the GH G3s. Anything else to even do past that without custom engine work?

Cheers and hate away, I'll learn from it no doubt!

OEM chrome grill always takes me back. A little too shiny from the factory for me. You have all the bolt on toys. Next item is a custom electric drive motor to the rear wheels.

I like the silver. Nice color and easier to keep clean.

Looking at black mesh grills I'm not a huge fan of this old OEM one Tbh

Welcome to our corner of the Internet. Enjoy your SHO.
With all that extra HP I would look into doing the ‘13+ brake upgrade.

You might want to check out the high flow HPFP upgrade to support your E30 and up desires.

I am keeping a close eye on them atm. They are drilled slotted rotors with ceramic pads. Doing great so far. Breaking is butter from 140-60 haha!
