Well I purchased my 2014 3.7 manual transmission with package 102 A three months ago. 300 miles in I was hit by a drunk driver really doing a number on my new ride... 6 Weeks later and multiple HORRIBLE paint jobs and missed repairs by the dealership I finally got it back. It is definitely not 100% but I was over going to the dealership and looking at them proudly parade my car only to see defects from 5 feet away and having to wait another week at a a time.

Once it was as good as they could get it I took it home. I had sworn I would not mod this car but since its never going to be 100% I figured I may as well have a go. The last few days off I have been busy.

First was the headlight, side markers and third break light tint. 20% window tint all around. Then a 302 look alike grill conversion.


Then a spoiler. Its not really a boss or shelby, somewhere in between. I liked it as it was OEM looking but unique.

Had one of these show up in the mail today :) Settled on a 91 race tune.

Found a GT strut bar on craigslist for dirt cheep. Painted it and installed today.

Next will be the drive shaft, gears and lowering springs in that order.

How are you liking the tune? Do you have an auto or manual?
I have been kicking around tuning mine because the lazy auto tranny. I hate to void the warranty but I may just roll the dice.


I also agree being picky with our own cars. I'm freakish about mine. I won't even let people drink in it. lol

I make my wife lint brush off before getting in, and vacuume it every time I get home. I'm kinda crazy.

I have a manual. I believe in auto trans it makes a bigger difference. I am very pleased can squawk the tires into third at 80mph YIKES! Stock 2.73 gears and I can hit 0-60 in 5.1-5.3 now. Big improvement.
