Added Ford Racing Headers, Muffler & Supercharger Pulley...it's like a different car!

I recently made some modifications to my 2006 Ford GT.

Some time last year, I began to want to do some improvements to my 2006 Ford GT to make it perform a little better, but also to make it sound louder and more aggressive.

I wanted to stay with genuine Ford parts and have any modifications be reversible, so after doing quite a bit of research on the internet, and especially on the Ford GT forum site, I settled on doing the following:

Ford Racing Headers M-9430-GT: http://www.fordracingparts.com/parts/part_details.asp?

Ford Racing Muffler M-5230-GT: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/fms-m-5230-gt?seid=srese1&gclid=CPbI_JO9lr8CFe4F7Aodsi0A3w

Ford Racing Supercharger Pulley M-2005-GT: http://www.fordracingpartsdirect.com/Ford_GT_Pulley_Upgrade_s/42.htm

I had the headers and muffler ceramic coated by Jet-Hot in Oklahoma City in order to keep engine-bay temperatures down, and keep the heat inside the pipes to increase exhaust-gas flows. See: http://www.jet-hot.com/coatings/premium-colors/

To find someone whom I could trust to do the install, I “interviewed” three very reputable and qualified shops to do the work, and become most comfortable with Dallas Mustang, who had already worked on many Ford GTs, and a HUGE number of Shelby Mustangs and other cars with similar mechanicals.

The install was completed on 30-October-2014…just in time for Halloween, which is appropriate because the car is scary fast!

I’ve attached a few pictures and a video link posted on YouTube by Dallas Mustang:

I was just as excited when I installed the same parts. Makes the car come alive.

Same here. Including Jet-Hot coating. Not FRPP pulley, but same size I think. The before and after dyno pulls are nice!

Where did you get that CF intake piece?

^This from Mr. "I can't remove the cats 'cause I'll kill the environment."

^^^ ok. Thank you Mr. Lawyer. Now my already poor sleep will be worsened. It's a good thing we live in Florida, where all our pollution blows to Mexico, Texas, or Cuba. Who gives a shit about any of those places?

 

[Sinovac]

I care about Texas because it's a Republican state. I can see why you wouldn't give a crap about it though. :lol

I don't know how you can sleep at all.

Looks and sounds great Scott!

Are the FRPP headers still available somewhere ?

 

[Xcentric]

^^^ Borla.

Thanks Xcentric.

I bought the Carbon Fiber air intake tube from the same guy who sold me the Ford Racing Headers and Muffler. I cannot remember who he said makes it, but will post it here if I think of it (I think it may have been Whipple or Stillen). I really like the way it looks, and it doesn't compress like the rubber one sometimes would when the supercharger draws in large amounts of air.
