OK so after a little testing the OEM spoiler really made a difference keeping it straight at higher speeds so the fences on the front splitters may not need to come off. In fact I may have to go big wing which makes sense because the splitters are copied off the GT350 sooo
I just so happen to have bought a gt350 wing to **** around with now I may need to 3d print some different mounting brackets for one and try it out. Also worth noting I did extensive testing with drag from the sunroof being propped up and it defeats the efficacy of the spoiler to have the sunroof propped up(which sucks because that's how I drive)

Sorting out the gauges, probably just gunna gram a sfrom my mobile carrier and run the internet and apps off the tablet. Working on a solution for the things obd2 won't show me like oil temp and trans temp ptu temp (which I know there's a sensor for!)

Marrying the obd2 info with info gotten from self run sensors is my next target. Gotta get all the datas

Ohhhhh! That came from Aaron schwartz and I believe it's from an s650 mustang try starting there you should find what you're looking for. It only bolted into one of the shiter **** holes but it's good enough to keep it there and confuse the living **** out of people how to shift lol

Also doing testing with oem wing back on we are going to be sending it with a big wing once I find the right one because those front splitter def require a lot downforce at the back

For anyone thinking an Audi RS5 with the V8 was a possibility I would highly recommend not to bother lol


Thinking of unloading my burden for 45k..... Might replace it with a better car just test drove an E63 with downpipes and a tune and it's got me wanting a wagon lol

After watching that I was flirting with messing with an RS4.

Glad I went with my E63S instead.

Yeah. I bought a 2019 Iridium Silver E63S. One owner, fully serviced from Mercedes, 37k miles.

You are correct it is a straight line rocket. It is the nicest, most practical, and completely R E T A R D E D thing I have ever bought.

Dropped the car off this run we're doing

License plate front mount - probably gunna have to do a crash bar with it and maybe build out the bumper mounts but at least it'll give me a front tow hook point
Trans and motor mounts in poly
Rear seat delete with ground mounted harness bar
New seat brackets made and braum seats with harness installed
Cat back exhaust - gotta get rid of the drone and lock down the exhaust
Aero project is a go with front splitters and two side splitters using the Porsche GT3RS as a guideline and adaptor plates for a gt350 wing might have to be made to go along with it all

so these are the last things to do before it's done for a good long while since I need to plan out the air to water intercooling setup

When I'm done we're gunna have some sick ass aero for this pig that's gunna blow these mfers minds. We are officially acknowledging I'll never recoup anything reasonable on the car so my only goal now is to blow ******* minds and get it rippin and embarassing some much more expensive cars (which in test driving almost every reasonable luxury performance cars comparable it already does)

I commiserated with the fabricator since he said yea bro "I know how you feel I have a turbo LS swapped 350z with a rocket bunny kit that I know nobody wants" lol
