2006 Mustang GT "Deluxe, with leather"

[JetBlack]

It is interesting to me, that, from the factory, nowhere on this car, does it say "Mustang". I guess if you live on Earth and don't know what a Mustang looks like... well there's just no helping some people and you're probably illiterate anyway, so they put a model of a running pony on the grille to help you sound it out.

I placed my order for this car on November 4, 2005.

Two and a half hellish months, of waiting.

Received the vehicle January 18, 2006. It was snowing.

Special ordered to be black with black leather interior, Interior Upgrade Package (IUP) which has aluminum steering wheel, aluminum dash panels and door sills, all anodized (clear) and the MyColor gauges so you can change to any of 125 colors, at the touch of a button. The special order came as a result of me being picky and wanting black paint, black leather, manual tranny, IUP, no spoiler and the cheap stereo, no side airbags and the 17" wheels (not 18s). I bought this car to be as fast, from the factory, as possible, *before* I started modding. That means short wheels, fat tires, no pseudo aerodynamic crap and as light as I can make it.

Shaker 500 costs $500 and weighs 80 pounds. Pass.
Shaker 1000 costs $1200 and weighs 80 pounds. Pass.
Spoiler weighs five pounds, provides no downforce and costs you 7 MPH in top speed. Pass.
Polished 18" wheels cost $800 and cost you 1/2 a second in 1/4 mile time and four MPH. Pass.
Side airbags weigh 8 pounds per side and I forgot to order them, till it was too late, but I wouldn't have minded. Now I'm sort of glad I didn't get them. They have weight and I can't get rid of them. They also prohibit the use of A-pillar gauges....

Exterior
Black with clear coat, spoiler delete.

Interior
Interior Upgrade Package
MyColor gauges
Anodized aluminum dash
Anodized aluminum steering wheel
Custom, one-off anodized ventilated Longacre shift sphere, drilled and tapped to fit the 12x125 post.
Removed the spare tire kit, for the summers to reduce weight. Replaced with a can of Fix-A-Flat.

Suspension
Steeda lower control arms
Upper control arm not installed yet. Not enough time and it's hard :(
Spydershaft aluminum, one piece, 4" drive shaft.
17x9 Bullits
235/55-17 stock Pirelli P-Zero Nero tires.

Engine
Sct Xcal2 tuner on 91 octane race tune (slightly faster in the 1/4 mile, than the 93 torque tune but good luck finding 93 octane gas!)
BBK cold air intake
Custom welded stainless TnT pipes (cat back). Still illegal, no matter what I do.
Power steering delete belt

$27,200 and I paid it off December 5, 2006.

Going up Steptoe Butte, gently, in second gear:

bump. Added videos.

[Domesticated]

at thing is rediculously shiny

[JetBlack]

at thing is rediculously shiny

Yeah, my buffer goes up to 11.

I set it to "ludicrous shine" and have at it.

[Domesticated]

i didnt know there was a rating, i dont think ive ever detailed a car

[JetBlack]

i didnt know there was a rating, i dont think ive ever detailed a car

That was a pair of movie references. From "Spinal Tap"... "This amp is so loud, it goes up to eleven."

From "Spaceballs"... "What's faster than light speed?"

"Ludicrous speed!!!"

[JetBlack]

Nitrous on the way.

http://www.brenspeed.com/82034.html

Plus blow down tube so I don't get an uh oh, with a mushroom cloud over it. And a window switch so I don't get a boo boo, with an oil slick under it.
One or two heat ranges cooler plugs and a dyno tune, at Shelley's in the Valley. Brian to the rescue.

Then I'll know what I am really making. Perfect time to run nitrous, right? Winter? RWD? Rain? Snow? You bet.

[Domesticated]

leave it to the muscle cars to be bottle babies!!! :o

[JDMJonny]

Oh its purple how neat! :lol:
Damn your gonna be haulling some ass!

[JetBlack]

Oh its purple how neat! :lol:
Damn your gonna be haulling some ass!

And with nitrous, my car will be fast enough that when I haul ass, I won't have to make two trips.

[Domesticated]

lmao :lol:

[JetBlack]

Oh dear, videos are gone.

[JetBlack]

My front porch, decorations... I can't believe they were still there. The freakin' UPS guiy must hate me and want all my shit to get ganked.

http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn300/dbuschhorn/Frontporch.jpg

My new tires:

http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn300/dbuschhorn/fatties.jpg

[JetBlack]

Tires are 255/50-17's on alloy racing rims. They took a beating last year.

[JDMJonny]

Wish my porch was decorated like that everyday! Kick that UPS guy right in the sack next time you see him!

[erik]

Holy crap! That's a lot of "stuff." Luck some of it didn't get "lost" in transit, you know that shit was stolen when that happens.

Have fun drooling and wishing it wasn't snowing and wet/icy out!

[JetBlack]

Yeah, I'll get it all hooked up and dynoed then not be able to touch the button again 'till like April. Turn my 13 second car into an 11 second car.

The suspension needs work. Upper control arm needs to finally go in. Panhard bar needs to be replaced (long skinny package). Driveshaft needs to be swapped out with the replacement aluminum unit with the machined flange. And as long as I'm in there, the Hurst shifter needs to go in, as long as the driveshaft is out anyway.

See what happens? It all starts with one statement... "As long as I am at it I might as well [________]."

Once the shaft is out (again), I can get to the upper control arm and the bottom of the shifter. As long as the upper control arm is coming out and I am right there anyway, I might as well rattle out the two bolts for the panhard rod.

Fuuuuuuuuuck.

As long as the car is up anyway, might as well route the nitrous tubing...

Fuuuuuuck.

It just goes on and on.

[TiMoN]

call UPS and say none of your stuff was there when you got home.

[gotrice93]

i gotta admit i was so amazed when i drove my friends 06 mustang this weekend while i was home. it is a v-6 auto. but it is actually pretty torky and gets up and goes. so i can only imagine how yours is.

[Stang]

Nice ride...gotta love the purple bottle

[RXSE7EN]

Sweet N2O dude. :)



My neighbor has an '06 GT with a 3.5" exhaust and a Saleen supercharger. That freakin supercharger is so loud. It whines 10 times louder than a Kenny Bell. I love how much torque those motors have.

[JetBlack]

On the bottle I should be making, in the neighborhood of 520 lbs.ft. of torque. It's ridiculous. I will need waaaaaaayyyy better tires. I don't think even sticky, heated Nittos will stand up to that. I expect to be pedalling it through third and chirping fourth, at 110MPH.

I'm a little worried.

[JetBlack]

Dad got me some stickers from work, back in the day. They are round and would fit perfectly on the gas door, of the Mustang. Unfortunately, they would not fit with the rest of the car :)

"Jet Fuel Only"

[JetBlack]

i gotta admit i was so amazed when i drove my friends 06 mustang this weekend while i was home. it is a v-6 auto. but it is actually pretty torky and gets up and goes. so i can only imagine how yours is.

Stock, the GT has about 50% more power than the V6.

It's also lighter. :)

Think about how the V6 feels in first gear.... The GT pulls like that, in third. When I start out, in second, from a stop sign, the tires spin, if I get on it too hard, at 1000 RPM.

Driving in the snow is tricky.

[JetBlack]

Didn't feel like it at all, but I went and cleaned up the outside and did a halfassed job on the engine bay. Did not do the underside of the hood. Bugs all over the front bumper. Stupid bugs.

I found out that my neighbor's tree is dying (the one you can see in the pics) and it's coming down in about two weeks. Too bad for the tree but now I won't have to shoot bottle rockets at the birds to keep them from shitting all over the car!!!!!

Cleaned the wheels a bit and sprayed the tires with sun protectant stuff that makes the water bead. Looks decent. Need to do the windshield. Somehow totally missed that. Bugs galore. Maybe I'll just take a razor blade to them in the morning.

JIZZ IN MY PANTS

[JetBlack]

For any upcoming car shows, I am thinking of printing up my mod-list, in reverse, so you read it in the reflection of the paint.

[RXSE7EN]

MONSTER TRUCK!


Needs to be lowered dude.

[gotrice93]

Dave i still love the all black back. now just need to do the 3rd break light and get rid of the fake gas cap

[JetBlack]

Just got a confirmation email saying my wideband shipped. Finally can get my ZEX in the car. Good to know because there's about three weeks before the track is open for FNSR again. Plenty of time to get it installed.

I want it in the 11s, on street tires, by August.

My best run, last week was 13.50 seconds so high 11s are doable.

MUHAHAHAHA!!!!!

[Brian]

how big of a shot are you going?

[JetBlack]

125 shot.

390 hp 520 tq, to the wheels. :shocked:

I'm a little scared.

With tuning I can get 420 hp but almost no torque gain. Brian describes it as feeling "like being hit from behind, by a freight train".

I can probably get online and find out what it should feel like to shit your pants and have an orgasm at the same time.

dave, time to read the electric fence story again... but instead of your balls climbing your chest, they will be trying to poke you in the pooper...

[Brian]

i'm thinking of putting a little 50 shot in my Integra when I take it to the track. After the summer season, then it's just going to be eye candy for the trunk

[JetBlack]

I'm thinking of getting this to replace the fake gas cap, on the rear.

YES You have to do that dude

[Brian]

if you don't do it, you are no longer cool :lol:

[Domesticated]

you have to!!!

[JetBlack]

Lisa is begging me to get it. She is a much bigger Transformers fan than I am. Those toons came out right when I was getting away from cartoons.. so like yesterday.

Barricade, for the win.

[Brian]

nice.

have you thought about getting new suspension? It looks like it sits high

[JetBlack]

I have considered lowering the rear an inch but then you have to tweak other things, like pinion angle, which means buying even more things, like new shocks/springs/upper control arm and panhard rod. I got tired of lowered Mustangs before I bought mine. Seeing them in person, I never got used to it. Looked like a lowered Lincoln. Not quite right. Lisa likes them lowered but I just have a hard time with it.

[Brian]

if you drop the front and rear the same amount do you still have to do all that?

[JetBlack]

if you drop the front and rear the same amount do you still have to do all that?

Yes, when the angle of the diff changes, relative to the body, you have to rotate it slightly, which you do with an adjustable upper control arm and adjustable panhard rod. To get the most out of lowering it, you need different springs/struts and some damn thing, in the front.

All for a change I don't really want, in the first place. That makes the decision easy, for me :D

[Brian]

love the videos. The slow-mo is my fav.

[JetBlack]

Just got word from Brenspeed, that my 4.10 gears and installation kit just shipped. Should get that installed either Friday or Monday, depending on how fast they get here.

I talked to Brian, at Shelley's Automotive, in the Valley and told him I might drop the car off in the AM and he said he might be able to do both the gears and nitrous, in one day.

My expected results... 11.51sec:

YouTube- Broadcast Yourself.

[JetBlack]

Got the gears today so unless Brian is open on Saturdays, I will drop the car off Monday and pick up the new beast that afternoon or at lunch :)

Nitrous bottle heater and purge kit shipped this morning so I won't install that until at least mid-February.

[JetBlack]

Also ordered the Decepticon badge.

[JetBlack]

4.10 Gears are in.

The old gears showed no sign of wear, at all. Had not even worn off the black coating!

So far, no noise, from the gears at all and the replacement driveshaft/flange are blissfully silent. Broke in the gears last night, with two heat cycles, per the internet instructions. The trip in to work will be more fun.

[Stang]

How much did the install cost you?

[JetBlack]

$310

Driveshaft and gears are NVH-free and I am happy. Starting in second, on dry pavement, 2000 RPM and pop the clutch and it roasts the tires, until I let off. I haven't had enough dry pavement to check but I am thinking it'll spin halfway through third and chirp fourth, at 80 MPH.

I am already thinking of nitrous and am getting excited. :yesnod:

[Domesticated]

damn, now you have the upper hand on my neon...maybe ill just throw it back together boosted and do the rwd later. but hey, i wouldnt mind going for a ride in your car when you get the spray in
/no homo

[2fast4usteeley]

thats cool, cant wait for track season probably

[JetBlack]

Yeah, but since I both modded and washed my car, in the Winter, I will have made it rain/snow for the rest of the year.

And Jon-boy, no means no. I just wanna be friends.

LOL!

damnit dave, you know the rules... now the next rule on the list is that you are not allowed to wax it unless you really want to piss off the weather gods...

[JetBlack]

Nitrous gets finished up Monday. Brian is doing a pretty (very!) stealthy job on the install. The only thing visible, will be the taps into the fuel rails and the tube to the fuel servos. Everything will be under something and/or painted black. Even the purge tubing will be painted black. No purple, except the injector but that's on the bottom.

And the bottle, in the trunk.

The stainless braided hoses will be wrapped in black shrink wrap to blend with the rest of the hood clutter.

[JetBlack]

Brian is an artist. This is the same style he used on Adrian's Cobra.

[Domesticated]

have you ever ran nitrous before?

[JetBlack]

shit, i have no chance now

[Domesticated]

is hiding your nitrous like not coming out of the closet?

[silver_echo]

i finally met brian at shelley... first thing i said when i walked in the shop was "hey! i know that car..." but i gotta say, just talking with brian, he definitely seems to know his shit up one side and down the other... so where did you have them put the purge?

[Domesticated]

up his ass

Brian more than knows his stuff. He IS his stuff. He's a good guy and is that rare combination of artist and genius. His kid's hilarious. Hes already working on his innocent look and he's only like 4. Kid comes in the office and his mom says "What are you doing?"

[innocent look] "Noooothing?" LOL!

up his ass

I'll have it plumbed to my left nostril, Borg-style, so I will enjoy racing, that much more.

But for now, it's going driver's side, corner of the hood, so I can see it. If I had a Cobra, I'd do this:

I wonder if you can do a water-weenie, sorta thing with it, by putting tubing on the tip. Or one of those party favors. I'd want a big one on the hood :)

I wonder if I ran acetylene to the purge nozzle.... one second of acetylene, then purge and a piezoelectric spark [WHOOPH] "Sorry about your eyebrows!"

[Domesticated]

you still havent answered my question yet, have you used it before?

[srtbrian]

DUDE!!! did you go into a mud pit with that thing!!! WOW


Same day, from the passenger's side. What nitrous?

http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn300/dbuschhorn/stock-ishengine.jpg

[JetBlack]

I didn't know Fernan was having it's entire roadway replaced with mud, until I got there. I have pics. It was horrifying.

[JetBlack]

you still havent answered my question yet, have you used it before?

Used what? If you mean nitrous, no. On the dyno, will be the first time.

[JetBlack]

that doesnt count youll love it, what shot, 100, 125?

[srtbrian]

OMG dude thats bad!!! I would be pissed!!

[Domesticated]

thats not the first time hes takin his mustang to the back country, but luckily hes an obsessive waxer and polisher so its not much of a problem

[JetBlack]

Spent four hours getting the Hurst shifter in. What a PITA that was. I was removing the last nut and discovered I did not have a 10mm open end. I know I own one but....

Thank God for good location. I live two blocks from Ace Hardware and two blocks from an Auto Parts place.

Putting the new one back in was only 3/4 of a PITA.

The new shifter is tight as hell. Gears are really close together and the neutral gate is tiny. Shifting is much better. Like a toggle switch, between first gear and second. [CLICK!]

[JetBlack]

LOL! The pic makes it look like hell. I should detail it a little. Can't remember the last time I vacuumed it. What year is this?

5 speed. I'd like to swap to a 6 but it's a bit of a nightmare. :incazzato:

[JetBlack]

that doesnt count youll love it, what shot, 100, 125?

100. I saw some devastation, at 125.

[Domesticated]

really? my old 2.4 would handle a 100 with a the right a/f. but that was pushin it. 100 is enough anyway lol

[JetBlack]

Bottle's in, blowdown tube is in, purge lines are in, tubing is in, nitrous lines are in. Still need fuel lines and to wire in the window switch, buttons and switches, wideband O2 sensor-gauge and dyno tune. 2 more days of work, in the shop.

I love that color purple, haha. I'm going to do a black/royal purple color scheme with my car I think. I want black rims with dark purple pin stripes. Yup.

[JetBlack]

That is a very manly bottle.

Yeah. The bottle's gay. I'm not :)

"bottles are for babies"

Viagra comes in bottles too and look what it does. You can have sex with your girlfriend, then go build a deck... without a hammer. Just pound those nails in with your wiener.

[srtbrian]

I hope your not going to leave your nitrous line ran like that under your hood?>

[Domesticated]

lol i was hoping no one would notice, give him a little surprise down the road

[gotrice93]

what happens if he leaves it like that? idk anything bout nitrous

[Brian]

the body could flex and cut the nitrous line

[Domesticated]

or it might get caught under the hood

[srtbrian]

Yep! What they said! and it looks bad to.

[JetBlack]

Everything's all going to be either painted or wrapped in shrink wrap, then tied down in it's permanent location.

[gotrice93]

Are you going to rerun the nitrous line so it doesn't take a risk of cutting like mentioned?

[JetBlack]

Before:

YouTube- Straight Pipes


After:


YouTube- Car.m4v

Stickier tires, better suspension, shorter gears. And possibly today.... N20.

[Domesticated]

nitrous is scary. quite the incredible feeling, ill never forget my first time spraying. its like theres no resistance to the engine in my car in third gear. id hit it at about 3000-3500 then a 4k my tach would just dropp straight to the redline like a hammer. 60-90 in just a few seconds

[CD5Accord]

that video woul have went viral if you slammed that camera at the end. Nice though

[MetaEnder]

Very nice! I can tell the difference, ha.

Don't know if you wanna be messing with N2O in that parking lot though, ha.

[JetBlack]

that video woul have went viral if you slammed that camera at the end. Nice though

My brother told me that years ago. He said it'd get way more hits if I'd have run into the camera. There's benefits both ways, I guess.

how is your set up? do you have to hold the button down or what. or is that button your purge

[AlienVictim]

dude jet nice ride. i always like the looks of the newer mustangs...and your going to hate me but i also like the 80's mustangs too........

[JetBlack]

how is your set up? do you have to hold the button down or what. or is that button your purge

Purge. The bottle heater switch will be down on the driver's side, where it won't get bonked. N20 will only be able to activate, at WOT, above 2500RPM and below whatever Brian decides is safe.

Monday will be the wideband install, connecting power lines etc. then it's done. Brian is sponsoring the install. W00t!

dude jet nice ride. i always like the looks of the newer mustangs...and your going to hate me but i also like the 80's mustangs too........

Some of them are pretty slick. Not the MustangII though. That's not a Mustang.:incazzato:

[AlienVictim]

lol my buddy had a 82 mustang with a supercharger and modest engine mods. that thing sounded like a tie fighter....lol

oh if your gonna keep taking your own videos i suggest this

1080p and works great even at night and the entire setup is only 300

[JetBlack]

That looks nice, but I got a new JVC HD camera. 16 hours of HD video plus stills. On board 60 gig hard drive.

Sony said its would have more options but I will never purchase another Sony product, if I can avoid it. I really hate them.

[Domesticated]

nice, very nice. so spray yet?

[JetBlack]

YouTube- Purge

[Tmo_BB6]

hahaha YES! bout time!

[Stang]

For a second there I thought the purge was coming from the mirror

[Brian]

do you always wear black? I swear every pic and vid I see you in, your wearing black

[JetBlack]

I have several black t-shirts, in varying states of repair. I don't throw them away until they are comprised of no more than six t-shirt molecules and have to be handled with tweezers.

[JetBlack]

Everything (nitrous related) is in and wired. Tomorrow morning the wideband goes in and the gauge gets mounted, then it's onto the dyno. This project got started on March 11, 2010. It's been a long wait but hopefully the enjoyment will be worth it. I'm sure Brian and Chad will be happy to see my car leave the shop :)

Everything (nitrous related) is in and wired. Tomorrow morning the wideband goes in and the gauge gets mounted, then it's onto the dyno. This project got started on March 11, 2010. It's been a long wait but hopefully the enjoyment will be worth it. I'm sure Brian and Chad will be happy to see my car leave the shop :)

and now you will truly understand why they never had the driveway paved... :ihih:

[JetBlack]

Nitrous is in.

Holy sweet goodness. It gets through the gears freaking fast. Very fun.

Then I went out and lost to a modded S2000. I took off, from the light, he pulled to the right and passed me, while I was at WOT, in third gear. Holy heck, that was a fast car. We ran again, from a 65MPH roll and ran to 150. I eased away from him until fifth gear, when he went around me.

Handily.

Never got to talk to him but I'm guessing boost. Had the fattest back tires, I've ever seen, on a Honda, of any description. That car was ridiculous.

[JetBlack]

~360 hp and 388 TQ, on a 100 shot. A lot less than I was hoping for but we'll see how it does at the track, on the 21st.

[MetaEnder]

Nice! Sounds like fun man! Glad you took the time to get everything installed into your car well before using it.

[Bmer89]

That S2000 probably had similar power, but it's so much lighter. Them things can go. Congrats on getting the happy juice hooked up :thumbsup:

[Domesticated]

100 shot, are you sure. werent you at 325hp before. a good tuned 100 shot should give you a 100hp

That should be a fun evening. I'm looking forward to it!

Who dynoed it? that seems very low?? What kind of power do you have stock?

[JetBlack]

~280 hp and 300 tq, at the crank.

Brian dynoed it, at Shelley's. I am not sure why the tq is so low. Others are saying theirs is in the high 400s, with a 100 shot.

[Brian]

I thought the 5th Gen GT's were 300-310hp at the crank

[srtbrian]

Thats crazy. I would do some adjusting you should be at more than that

[JetBlack]

Well, with the bottle gauge and the heater on, making about 900-950PSI, there's a huge boost. Now I'm more happy.

[srtbrian]

Yeah makes a big difference.

Sunday, I got the upper control arm in, Last weekend, the swaybar relocation kit went in and the 15x10.50 wheels test fitted great.

The Mickey Thompson, 26x11.50-15s went on the rims and I hooked, at the track, pretty well, at 3500 RPM.

Ran a 12.6 @ 108, with a 1.7 60'.

Nice, you're in the vid!

Those spark plugs are a little burnt, ha. Is that from the NOS?

[JetBlack]

Either the nitrous or the plug being loose. If it leaks air, into the cylinder, on the intake stroke, it can do that kind of damage. If a little anti-seize compound gets on the electrode, it can do it too.

[JetBlack]

Pricing forged rotating assemblies and head/cam.

Looking at around 8.8:1 compression in a 1000-1500hp-rated assembly. I wonder if I'm thinking boost?

:)

~380hp, without boost and a lopey idle.

Next is to answer the question of whether I want twin turbo, by Stromberger or supercharged, by Shelley's.

[SW-21turbo]

Supercharged! That sound is fucking awesome!!!!!!!!

[Stang]

that sounds just makes me want to turn on my car and just sit there and hear it for hours

[silver_echo]

just get the hellraiser kit... supercharged and twin turbo...

Who needs a grille when you can look at that??.... I like the tt kits that stick under the rear bumper.

Snail-in-the-tail.

If my car looked like that, I'd be hood-less and grill-less. There'd be no stopping me.
