So what did you do to your SHO today!?

[Lostneye]

White Platinum Metallic Tri Coat, Not sure about suede? Seems all leather to me , 30k Odometer, $25,000, currently right outside Memphis, TN. Only mod I know of is K&N Cold Air Intake. I bought it used back in 12/17 w/ 11k miles on it so have only put about 9k'ish a year in the last 2 years. She doesn't get driven much at all. You can see the listing here.

I absolutely love the car, still! I just have other toys I want such as a motorcyle and a pool. Combine that with now having a wife and family and I can't be silly spender like I used to so something has to go. I'll miss it without question.

FYI, The suede is gray and in the center where the leather is perforated.

Good luck with sale

Silly me... I knew that - I forget how much I researched 2 years ago when I bought this car, lol...

Got new GH Intercooler! Hopefully install it Friday!

Haven't done anything recently other than compiling more parts

Things in my garage

DW300 pump
OEM fuel pump bucket to pre-assemble the pump
G2 Sonic Blue Caliper Paint kit
Sonic Blue High Temp paint for engine accents
Vortech BAP (just to compare to the DW300 output)

Was planning to install everything this weekend but had two sick kiddos and a worn out wife that kept me busy.

Looking forward to this

Not necessarily WHAT I've done TO my SHO today, but more so FOR my SHO.....

Well really for me I guess. In anticipation of my upcoming birthday, and wanting some seating for the garage when I'm in there watching TV, listening to music, detailing cars, etc. I decided to order 3 of these bar stools to fit under the narrow bench/table.

Once they arrive, I'll snap a few pics and re-post.

Planning on taking the SHO for the first time to the track on Friday so I decided to check for any boost leaks as I've been feeling that it is not pushing as hard as it should.
Sure enough I found most of the hose clamps a bit lose and the one that goes from the front turbo to the IC is stripped so I'll be replacing it tomorrow.
Which is the best way to get to the clamps on the rear turbo? From the top leaning on the engine? I tried from underneath but it seems almost impossible to get your hands in there.

how are you testing it? pressurizing the system?

 

[jman1200]

Not testing it yet, I am just tightening everything I can. If I don't see an improvement then I'll look into doing a boost leak test. I hope it improves after replacing the stripped clamp, I was able to move the hose in/out/rotate the way it currently is, but also want to check the other turbo.

For me laying across the intake manifold was the best way.

Its a bummer, Im deciding if its even worth putting a new engine into her

 

[TomahawkSHO]

After the vent to atmosphere BOV mod last week I took a couple videos, including one in a tunnel.

Right after the mod:

TUNNEL:

Whatever maturity I had left has since escaped through my open windows.

It happens. My Boomba BOV sounds like a gunshot when I chop the throttle at 21 psi on my ST lol.

Received the Officially Licensed FORD swivel bar stools for the garage today.

Got 2 of the 3 total assembled.

Looks nice. Sturdy too. Glad to have a little seating now while hanging out and enjoying some brews, music/TV, etc.

They fit nicely under the work bench.
