Nothing more satisfying than doing it yourself.ArizonaBOSS said:My car is a 2012, so unfortunately that is not really an option. I am going to do a couple modifications to the existing plastic/rubber radiator side-shrouding (again, similar to @Black Boss' work) to more effectively channel air to the radiator at speed.
Also this is a fun little fab project My actual fabricator buddy (that did @captdistraction's cage) let me borrow a small metal brake so I can bend all the forms as-needed. This is pretty low-level stuff but it's interesting.

Thanks.
They're all beautiful bars,guess it just came down to the guys I was dealing with. Vorshlag runs it in their car
and like their design,and I've been dealing with Sam Strano for the last couple years and also likes the MM product.Pretty easy install,everything lined up good. Guess the welding of the rear bars is an extra step but
all good.

BigTaco said:I was talking to Filip from Cortex about this type of mod. I had the Watson kit installed on my 2013 in addition to the FRPP air to air oil cooler. I was surprised at how noticeable the difference it made. Filip told me that it's worth a solid 20F drop in oil temps......
By the way, your oil cooler can beat up everyone else's.....
Sydewaysix said:Been slowly doing some upkeep on the Boss the last few days. I dropped in a K&N air filter on Saturday and finally lifted the car up for the first time today. After discussing with @BigTaco, I ended up doing an oil change using Driven FR50 5w-50 motor oil and the recommended Motorcraft oil filter, FL500-S. Thanks again Ron for the tip on the oil and filters
Being that this was the first time I put the car in the air, I was pleasantly greeted by a Laguna Seca transmission cooling scoop! I was unaware that the car had this when I bought it. The previous owner did not mention anything about it, nor was I given any receipts or paperwork for it. I can't complain - I love good surprises like this ;D
