Full newbie from Sand Springs

Hey everyone...Rob here from Sand Springs. First time Stang owner and already addicted.

We've got:

2010 Mustang GT Premium silver with CarFX "Ford Racing" decals and blue racing stripes

We've added:

Eibach lowering springs
FRPP shaker hood
Steeda CAI
Underdrive pulleys
Roush Extreme cat back system
SCT tuner (really needs a true dyno tune)
Upgraded head/foglights to HID

On the "to do" list:

Roush short throw
FRPP cams
possibly Paxton supercharger
then maybe some outside body mods

If you see us driving by honk! We're interested in cruises and what not...I'm still learning a lot about the car as this is really my first performance car.

Cya!
Rob (& wife Michelle)

Bad picture but here is our Stang...I'll take some better ones (during the day) later.

Hey Rob! Welcome. Nice ride!

It's ok, but most of us feel that carfx is a weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee


bit expensive

nice car btw!

Nice car - I haven't seen you in traffic yet - I'm over by Charles Page HS myself - Go Sandites !!

Welcome Rob, enjoy your stay

Hey Pony,

I'm over near Keystone myself.

So far the people at CarFX have been decent. I usually don't mind to pay a little extra if I get good service but I wasn't aware of other shops in town (or who to trust). When I inquired with CarFX about the cams it seems he wanted to sell me on the loping sound (and how intimidating it would be to others) rather than telling me what performance gains I would get by installing them. Performance is first in my book.

You guys will probably see more of me here...

Hey a Rob and a Robert , now ain't that special ( LOL ) - I'm sure we will pass each other sooner or later as small as this town is , C-Ya!

The loping sound is cool. I use to have comp cams Mutha thumpers. they were cool azz her but the bottom end sucks with stock gears. The power kicked in around 4000 rpm. I rather have the power than the sound if i was racing. The loping sound is cool when driving around town or for car shows. Maybe if my car had better mods, the cams would have worked better for me.

I knew I had read something about a silver mustang with Ford Racing stickers on it....

Damn good looking car.... I'll give you a nice head start when I see you on 412 again

< I'll give you a nice head start when I see you on 412 again >


Dang - That's cold as ICE , but still funny in a twisted way ( LOL )

And I'll downshift next time so your ego won't get inflated again ;)

Seriously though... I passed you and then you romped on it and I didn't even hit it until you had already passed me. Give me a nod next time and we'll run em even ;) I'm curious to see what mine will do compared to yours. Slick car BTW :)

Welcome Rob and Michelle!

great looking ride!!!!!!!!


no frpp cams with a supercharger, bad combination. just asking for something to break. if you do cams and a blower you should do a set of cams specifically ground for a blower.

Howdy doooooo!

Rob, I would def like to see how yours will run against mine... I know that it wasn't a good take off.....

I think your car looks pretty damn good.... you need to s/c it tho...
I get alot of trash talk on here about my car... but it holds its own against s/c'ed 4.6L Mustangs (minus the 75lb boosted KB ponies! You guys know who I'm talkin about!)

Down shifting would def help that distance between the two of us

I've been seriously contemplating the super charger...and the cams...was wondering how they would work together.

I can't find any information though about whether or not I should go with the Paxton setup or the FRPP SC'er...I'm kinda screwed because I have the FRPP shaker hood. I just want to make sure I'm not going to get short changed on performance by going with the Paxton setup.

Anyone have any technical/performance data between the two setups?

I've also just considered getting a 2011 5.0

Ahhhhhhhhhh I don't know what to do...LOL

The saleen super shaker is a nice setup. It gives added horsepower with the supercharger while retaining the stock look of the shaker hood.
