Got the kick panel pods ready to wrap.

Outside is ready to wrap. Inside still needs lead shot milkshake and threaded inserts for the speakers…I’ll finish that this weekend.

Gonna be honest here…having it done and it getting done right are largely 2 different things. Shops will slap in some CLD and say it’s treated…that’s just a small part of it. CCF, butyl rope, Tesa tape, Thinsulate, etc are all part of the puzzle to do it right. I have a log here just on...

Sound treatments are kinda like the building block for everything else. Without a quality install you can’t have good audio and the install starts with treatments. I did my whole car long before I started the audio and it made a massive difference.

Anyone considering replacing the speakers should spend some time and do some quality sound treatments first. You will likely be amazed at the difference in quality once you eliminate all the buzzes and rattles.

Trim is fit now. Filler and finish sanding today. Floor mats are cut to match and go to get the border sewn back on tomorrow and hopefully I’ll wrap these up this weekend so I can focus on the a-pillars.

Final shape is starting to show up.

Your mpg will be 100% dependent on your driving style.

Killed a few minutes pulling cloth and getting resin on the a-pillars. Glass tomorrow so I can start sanding and filler on these and the kick panels this weekend.

There is no boost gauge.

I did an experiment…because I love the look but it was a fail. I’ve had a black anodized wiper delete plug for years but the Kill All Wipers flush mount plugs look better. A little searching and it looked like a newer Focus has the same size hole so I ordered one and waited a couple of weeks to...

New RCA’s came in today. RSD Custom Cables silver core Ultras.

For sure. To date I haven’t seen any other static springs that sit lower than what I currently have. I sure would love some quality adjustable struts and shocks though.

Got the big ass 1.5” AFe front swaybar finally. It’ll be fun dialing it in with the rear bar when I get around to installing it.

Just because I may have missed it…or forgotten…have you considered finding a pair of smaller chargers that fit the bill and having some adapters machined to bolt to the head? Seems like it would cut way down on fab work if the exhaust was largely unchanged as well as the lay-out of the intake...

Lots of glass on the kick panel pods today and while that’s curing I started the new a-pillars. Aimed just behind the rear view mirror then attached the rings and made a plastic insert to blend in above the rings. That’s it for this week.

BlackHole is a brand by themselves but Nick sells their stuff in addition to his own products.

That’s the front floor pan. Both sides were cut. And yes on the wheel weights. Anything to keep the tactile response down…or hopefully nonexistent.

Don’t buy Hushmat…the CLD barely does anything and the damping pads do nothing…it’s physically impossible for a pad that thin to do anything. Look at Resonix for the highest quality sound deadening products on the market.

Cut big ass holes in the floorboards. lol
