The Mustang is a 2+2 - trust me only midgets can fit back there.

Speaking of Mustangs...

I saw a Mach 1 at the mall the other day, and it sounded great.  I was trying to figure out if he had the stock exhaust, or something else, but I didn\'t have enough time to check.  If that\'s what the stock exhaust sounds like, then made a good choice, Giga.  :)

Since we are talking about cars, I spoke with Doug Levin today.  He owns a supercharger company that only works with Vipers.  We are going to run the viper on our dyno for one of our shows. Damn fun..  Stock it will be 410hp, but supercharged it will be over 850hp.

Nothing like driving 150 mph at 850hp standing still.

I actually do shoot everything that is out of the studio.  I\'ll be going down to his facility in Miami.  He said they have anywhere from 10-15 vipers in his shop all the time.

Pretty freaking amazing.  I\'m getting him to get a Viper truck to for the show.

I\'ll be sure to snap some pics when I am donw there.  Not going for a while.

Next week I am going to the Lincoln Electric Nascar welding school.  Week after that I am going to BD Power where they have a twin turbo for the dodge diesel truck that puts out over 1500 ft pounds of torque.  I\'m also going to Cummins where I am touring the plant and hopefully fingers crossed going to get to see the engineering side as well.  They are developing a V-Block Diesel engine.  I\'m also going to Marshall Engines.   They build drop in performance motors.

Starting Sunday I will have a month of hell.

I don\'t mind being a cameraman.  Although I am also the director and producer too.  Being behind the camera is what got me the job so I don\'t knock it.  Although we call them videographers.  ;)

Need another videographer? I consider myself a human tripod. ;) Well, at least it looks like it when I\'m shooting.

I can\'t be sure if it was stock or not, one way to tell is if the exhaust pipe tips are rolled, if so it is most likley stock (though MRT is just now starting to sell rolled tips) - the stock sounds pretty good, but I think I am either going with Magnapacks or Magnaflows and keeping my stock H pipe.  

The stock exhaust has a nice gurgling sound when the car is slowing down and really roars when you get on it in stock form, I just want it to be a bit louder ;)

The only other mod I might get is the K&N CAI for now.  I was thinking of getting the Bassani exhaust, but that is a bit too much considering I am not getting a new X pipe.

Giga, according to all the people on the Stang boards a CAI is a waste of money. They do look cool, though.

Yeah its not that expensive to get either...  My car is going to stay pretty much stock - maybe a strut tower brace instead - it couldn\'t hurt.

I\'m thinking of getting a brace too because I have a rag top. My car is in the shop getting the hood painted now. I hope I have it by tomorrow since this weekend is going to be a warm one.

If I had a MACH I would probably keep it stock as well but the mod bug is damn hard to ignore.

Especially when your see what other people are doing.  On the other hand that can also deter you from modding as I have seen some terrible mods on the Mach\'s.  Anything from custom paint to tacky knobs on the dash...  also, I will pass on the louvers ;)
