    The Maverick was more of a storage area and desk during the install while I was trapped in there during the rain. Never a work bench though!!

    I bought the setup from JDM Engineering in N.J. ... They specialize in Roush and Saleen Superchargers and tuning. They were even able to get Saleen to make me a custom setup for my 2010 GT since Saleen does not offer the Shaker setup for 2010 cars.

    JDM sent me the tune via email and according to my A/F Wideband it looks pretty good. I'll put it up on a dyno sooner or later and see if may possibly need any tweaking.

    I'd rather have it a little conservative instead of a blown engine.

    I hear there is a really good shop in Dallas, GA .... $475 for a S/C Dyno Tune.

    Sunset Gold was the reason I went with a 4.6 2010 instead of a 2011 5.0 ... It was a 1 year only color for 2010 ... supposedly a special color to celebrate the 2010 redesign of the s197 platform.

    I emailed Ford about build numbers and here is what they sent me ...

    Yup ... pretty happy about that ... plus with the options I got ...

    Manual Tranny
    3.55 Gears
    Heated Seats
    19" Wheels Package ...

    It's probably a pretty rare Mustang ...

    yes ... the glass roofs are sweet! and a $2K option ...

    Ford used a Glass Roof Sunset Gold car for their Auto Show circuit before the 2010 redesign was released ...

    Looks great! And I'm assuming that "it pulls nicely" is something of an understatement!
