When you get done it will look much better than you started. It's always basically impossible to perfectly match tri-color paints. But your progress looks great.

Thank you and that's why I'm glad I have a black car! LOL! This is surprisingly easy if you take your time.

Not sure if it matters, but I used a universal black since I already had it instead of a Ford black. The touch-up paint seems to be a little more brownish compared to mine, but nothing you'd really know unless you were looking for it. Wet sanded it all down and polished it out. Need to build out a scratch or two and repeat, but that'll be next week. Until then, here's where I'm at.

Not today but last week I added an eBay special slotted and drilled rotors and ceramic pads. First impression is better initial bite and overall breaking power over stock with a bit more noise than I would like under agressive deceleration, but the stock brakes had to be replaced.72932f5f560a269254921038a29833569f08c6d0d345b616c47462d77175580a

I purchased the same ones and i hate they way they sound on hard deceleration. my lady swears there is something wrong when them but i assume it was just a characteristic of drilled and slotted rotors.

Nice!! Do you have some tips on how you installed - making it nice & straight, etc...?
Actually, the decals were small enough that I just eyeballed them. My only pro tip is that I did the passenger side first. I figured if I messed it up, at least I wouldn't have to look at it every day. Ha!

Dual nozzle with a pre turbo injection as well? Would be my guess...

OR... your running less than 50% meth and spraying the IC as well...

Guessing here lol!!!

Stoked for the right up! Really wishing I had gone with my gut and did a trunk mount setup...

Are you gonna close off the noisemaker? That meth will eat right through the gasket on that dumb thing...

Ehhh, i will tell you they're somewhere between the intake and exhaust. Lol. Only 100% pure methanol round here, I Don't want water entering the....

Oh and good call on the noise maker delete. I guess I'll have to piece together some parts or have the one of the fabbies at work make something up.

LMS tuning it?
Indeed. In the mean time I have the vanilla "Intro to meth" brochure esq 4+x meth tune they're handing out, to load once the install is complete. They're working on a another tune as well. And Suppose to get a call from lms this week to discuss dyno tuning scheduling. So I will be able to prove out my system setup for a few hundred miles prior to the dyno.
