    Ed in San Diego, Calif.

    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".

    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.
