    Are you still running the stock clutch? If so, how is it hanging in there? Do you think you're going to need a twin-disc setup for this power level? I know you'll need it on your "next" motor.

    Ya my car is the auto its been proven to around high 800ish and above that i would need to upgrade to the 6R80 exedy stage 2 + kit. My car does a good bit of top end pulls to 140+ sometimes 160+ and sees 7500rpm fairly often. At least twice a day to be exact. I would probably be happy where my car is at power wise if it wasn't so heavy. So my car needs to go on a diet and so do i :)

    Well a little update here! I had put the car up for sale due to help with the cost of purchasing another house but the other buyer ended up getting it. So to make myself happy i ordered some stainless works headers for the car and got a more aggressive tune from Jon Lund. I can't wait for the snow to melt to try this tune out!

    Heres one of the last pictures i took of it.

    Ya it was most likely me. I wanted to take it out and get a couple pulls on it before i was going to put it away but then i noticed i was having some cooling problems. Low on coolant ftl haha. Paxton/vortech coolant reservior are garbage and leak. I left the car outside the other day because i was going to pick some coolant up in the morning and then this happened haha.

    Mack, if you don't mind me asking, how much and where'd you get the headers from? SW are the headers i want for my car to go with the rest of my SW exhaust already on my car. You can pm me if you want.

    PaxtonShelby i got my Paxton kit from beefcakeracing. If you call him or message him online he will give you the cheapest price possible. I paid 3950 for my paxton tuner kit from him +tuner,injectors,tune,etc but he has a beefcake special that comes with everything you would need which he didn't have when i bought my kit. Paxton tuner kit, 1000cc injectors(which are like $900 but you get them for so cheap), sct tuner, vortech programable bap, and a Jon lund custom startup + remote tune. His kit is good for 9's if you were interested in that. I believe that Wolfpack does tuning with him so he would be able to help you out with the remote part. His name is Terry (beefcake) Reeves and his business cell phone number is 513-478-1965. Hands down you will not beat his price. Jpc was the second best price i could find. I bought 75lb injectors that i regret now because i want to switch to e-85 and i can't because they aren't big enough.

    I actually just bought those headers from a member of s197 for only $800. He put them on his car. Had them on there for like 50 miles and got a raise so he sold his car and bought a 2013 boss. The headers dont mate with the boss midpipe so it worked in my favor. If you were interested in getting those headers right now beefcake is also a distributor for them and he has the non catted ones for like 1150 shipped i think.

    Yeah John, they do quality stuff. The SW exhaust on my car is top notch stuff and the sound is incredible. Of all the exhaust clips on youtube for the 11's and up the SW i think sounds the best.:)

    If it looks good, you'll see it. If it sounds good, you'll hear it. If it's marketed right, you'll buy it. But if it's real, you'll feel it. IG: @donuttrump

    Thanks BigMack!!! Appreciate the help! I have seen beefcake on other sites and he really does seem to like the Paxton setup. Crazy that he drives that car daily - but very cool as well!

    Headers are on!

    Definitely made the quiet gt500 mufflers a little louder haha.

    Here is a crappy picture i snagged real quick haha:


    Here is a quick vid i took on the way home:
    [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJpjdOLhvQk"]Supercharged 2012 Mustang Gt w' Stainless works headers & Gt500 mufflers - YouTube[/ame]

    I'm glad i snagged these up haha. I have some hushpower mufflers lined up to replace the gt500 mufflers as they are a restriction at this point. I also got my new lund tune in the car so i'm excited for a nice day to try it out and get some logs.
