idk yet... i want to get the s281 spoiler, but im low on funds right now, and i just dont have time to search for a good one. and i really want new sideskirts with a sde exhaust, but that means more money... i think yours flows really well with having a cobra front... i still dont know what to do lol... as for right now i have the cobra front and fogs going on and cervinis scoops... after that install the m90 and cam with the ported heads and all... im hoping for 250+ with the m90 ported heads, ported lower, 1.7 RRs, 212/218 cam, and my cold air intake...
i may be building a road race car as well if i can find a solid roller, i have a spare engine im going to build up and if i dont put it in my car, then i throw it in the racer.
btw, what do you think of that T1 wing you have, i know its great for a race car, but does it look like too much on a street car? post up a pic of it if you have one.
Dude you should've talked to me earlier. I sold my kaenen s281 to Ryan (InNeedOfBoost). If you go side exhaust, either go with Roush or go with the OEM Ford SVO skirts. I got the abcexclusive side skirts, biggest mistake I ever made. They're held on by two small bolts at the ends and the rest is held on by double sided tape. The double sided tape has since come up on the passenger side from people dragging their feet while getting in and out of the car. but yeah, I'm kind of on the fence between the roush/svo. I like the roush because the fit is way better and looks so sexy when it's molded. But I don't like how the exhaust exit isn't closed like it is with the svo. The exhaust sits farther back on the roush and that would destroy my white rims haha.
You decided to keep the m90 kit then I'm guessing? I'd recommend getting the heads from RPM-Mustang and send your blower and lower intake to hiposilver. He'll port & polish everything to match the heads, and he can weld the silencer ports shut which increases the blower whine and power as well. I'd definitely think about going with a larger cam than that to be honest. Minimum on a roots blower I would go with is 218/224. Right now I'm running 207/215 because I'm n/a but when I put on my procharger I'm going with 228/240, which is perfect for a blower and Miks (RPM-Mustangs) BV Heads. And asking for 250+ to the wheels from p&p, cam, and just a blower is asking for a lot. I think you'll get around 230-240 at best but the torque will be phenomenal. Single port isn't going to make a lot of horsepower, you'll be ridiculously high in torque numbers though. Honestly, if you were to get the Magnum Powers FMIC, I think you'd be able to hit 250+ easy because the blower will become much more efficient. The main thing hold the m90 back is the heat generated by the crappy side mount intercooler. Dual cores only patch that problem whereas the MP FMIC will cure the problem with extremely low intake temps, allowing you to increase boost on the stock internals without hurting them.
As for the T1 spoiler. I like it, but, I'm more performance/aerodynamically inclined than anything else. It may be a bit much for a street car, especially if you don't have a body kit that's low enough to make it look okay. Currently I think it looks horrible because my rear bumper isn't low enough. But I'm going to be solving that problem soon. One thing you also have to realize about the t1 or even the s281, is that your rear view mirror visibility is drastically reduced.
And some shots of the front license plate bracket. I chose to mount it on the side because I'm going to have an intercooler going behind there in about a month or two. Also ignore the beat up license plate haha, I'm getting custom one's soon.
