My 2011 has a new home!!!!! and MOD updates

[SaleenGT2001]

FINALLY after many years of wanting and waiting i finally pulled the trigger on my shop. after the tornado decided to get rid of my old barn i had the open space and a huge down payment so i couldnt pass it up. the lights and power will be done by the end of the week and the twin post lift and a few other goodies should be in by october.

i also havent posted the results of the 2nd wave of mods. i put the liquid cooled Kenne Bell 2.8 on in june and pullied up to 10 PSI a few weeks later. it now has an OR H pipe, aeroforce scan gauge in vent pod, TSW wheels with 315/35/20 and 275/35/20 NT05's, Roush grill and spoiler, CS lower valance with fogs, GT500 rear diffuser, MRT hood struts and Grabber blue powder coated Brembos awaiting install.

and the dyno sheet. this is on 7.5 PSI, no dyno with the 10 PSI pulley yet

Congrats on the shop

how much did a building that size cost? Concrete floor and all?

I need one also, maybe slightly smaller than that however...

Thanks!

 

[SaleenGT2001]

the entire shop, including grading, concrete, building and full install was just under $13K. with all the electrical, floor caoting and the BendPak lift i will have under 20K on it

Looking good man!

The 5.0 gonna make it down to the 5/6 speed shootout in November? If you can hook it and drive it, I'll bet it'll be a pretty serious contender.

That car is going to quickly go from "street car" to "race/street car" quickly with that awesome shop!

Glad to see that you have recovered from the storm! I'm thinking about buying the same wheels you have on your car right now, they look great!

 

[BurningRubber]

That's perfection. Seriously, and serious numbers as well... damn!


Looks like the shop came out awesome. I know you're happy with that.

Nice shop. I wish I had the land to do something similar.

I guess the question in everyone's mind..... how does the new stang compare with the old stang performance wise now that the KB is in place?

 

[Kornnut]

My next house will have something like that, and seems you got a great deal on it.

 

[LarsD]

Nice. I'm jealous of the car, the coming electric, and lift.

 

[Sonic04GT]

That's awesome; the shop and the car.

i really like the 5.0 a lot better. i still drive the old saleen about once every 2 months or so. My buddy added Meth and did a few upgrades but changed the 3.90's for some 3.55's. it is just not the same as when i had it. it feels much slower than the 5.0 even though it makes 50 more hp. i am loving the instant boost and the better ride quality of the new car. it is not the beast the old car was on race gas and spray but it is a very nice street car. i am looking at turning up the boost again once i get a meth kit installed since the current 10 psi is considered the limit on 93 oct. i'm looking to break into the 600-625 range by the end of winter

I am running 10 psi on my stock 02 gt conv and loving it. I missed taking to to the track of couple days ago due to remodeling my bathroom. It must be insane with a new 5.0 running a kenne belle.
