Yesterday, I took my stock FGT to Team Ford in Alpharetta, GA to have the following mods installed on my car which I purchased from Torrie:
Heffner Exhaust
Heffner Pulley
New spark plugs (one step colder)
SCT Tune by Torrie
First of all the exhaust...it looks like a piece of art! Heffner makes an awesome looking piece that fits perfectly. In my opinion the best looking option on the market weighing far less (40 lbs.?) than stock. Now, the best part is the sound! It has a deep rumble that is not too loud and matches the car perfectly. The stock exhaust was far too quite for me. I had a smile on my face the entire drive home simply from the new sounds that my car makes! The next thing that I noticed were my engine temperatures. On my 45 minute ride home my car averaged 180 degrees. This is about 20 degrees lower than before I changed the exhaust.
Second the Pulley...The Heffner pulley is far lighter than the stock one weight wise. It is black and looks just like a stock pulley only smaller of course. It installed easily using a press. Though the blower comes off, this was far easier to install than I expected. The added power is very nice and is cheap HP.
Finally...Thanks to Torrie McPhail at UnleashedTuning.com who provided my tune, products, and the best customer service possible. Torrie was available for questions throughout my install and made this entire install a great experience. I can't say enough about the outstanding service his company provides.
If you are on the fence about doing this, get off the fence! This will bring a big smile to your face without a doubt. If nothing else, do the exhaust. It is a beautiful piece, lowers temps (at least in my case), and sounds like the car should!:thumbsup
