My name is Ed and I own a 2005 Mustang GT. Mods are a Saleen S/C, 4R70W Trans, 3:73 gears, 3200 stall PI, GT500 fuel pump, JBA Shorty headers.
I use to race my car only on a 1/8 track and my best time was 7.48 seconds. I broke the stock 5R55 auto trans so many times (4 at the time) my wife banned me from racing or she would have left me, it was a hard choice. LOL

The other reason I came to this site was to become a sponsor also, in works with that.

Here are some picture's of my ride.

Thanks for the welcome everyone.


As far as the wife banning me from racing, well, I broke the stock trans (5R55) during that time around 4 or 5 times. I was taking money out of my 401K to pay for it, she wanted me to not to use the same person for the repairs. Since the ban I broke the trans two or three more times, that's why I have a 4R70W in it now. My tuner told me I don't make enough power to break it unless I get stupid with it.
So I started putting money into the looks and was hoping to get into more car shows, but I don't always have time with that since I started my side business selling mustang parts. That's why I hope things work out to be a vendor on this site too.

Oh, I did win this trophy at a car show "Most likely to burn the road".

Welcome to SCS! Nice looking stang..Out of curiousity, how did you install HID looking lights in your front turn signals and when you put on your turn signal does it light up like that?

Those are LED lights that I sell. The turn signals are 92 LED switchbacks and the parking lights on my car has 68 LED bulbs. The turn signal light housing is chrome with a clear lens. Here's a video.

I'm also trying to be a vendor on this site and waiting for a reply.
