Well I have a web site now!

Welcome to the site

 

[99SportX]

Thanks

Feel free to make a section for your car in the Topics area of my page, it'd be nice to get a good group of cars in there

The Berry Car Show was yesterday and there was a pretty awesome turnout! I put over 70 pictures up on my site, click here and check out some of the stuff that was there! Boosted Mountaineer Gallery

Lots more on the site.

Several of the Explorer's there are members on this and other X sites

Figured I might as well give an update on the truck!

Currently running Torque Monster Headers, new MSD coil packs (full mod list here),

In the shop right now getting the following done:

9lb blower pulley
90MM Lightning MAF
Custom Intake
New Injectors
AIS Sensor Relocation (under the blower)
Snow Performance Boost Cooler Stage 2 MAF
Better Fuel Pump or Kenne Bell Boost-A-Pump
Dyno Tune running SCT Excalibur Superchip

When I get that back it'll go right into another shop to get some as of yet undisclosed audio/video upgrades, then it will go to another shop for hopefully a cam/internals upgrade.

Then it'll be rockin'!

Drumroll please!!!!

This is in progress pictures with my camera phone in a dark area. That said, notice how factory the fiberglass work looks in making the NICE and the head unit fit, and notice how show quality the glovebox is I should be getting it some time next week :wink:

I didn't get pictures of the tweeters but they are mounted in the door, the camera and DVD player are the only things left to go back on

More midweek when I get the truck back again!

Looks damn good. Can't wait to see it in person. If I had 3 grand to blow, I'd do the same setup

hey jeff looks awesome!! i really like the screen. never saw this thread before, the truck has got some awesome new stuff going on!

 

[IAmTodd]

Looks good. Although changing the HVAC is going to be a pain.

 

[GTA357]

Some pictures of it done and in my hands







Sorry I had to watermark and copyright it, I have had a lot of people take my pictures and claim them as their truck on cardomain and such, that's why.

More coming

jeff looks sweet! dont really like the amp rack though, just cause everyone and their mom has their amps like that in an explorer. thats just me though. im sure it sounds sweet, i like the bezel w/the screen and stuff!

Well there really was no place for the second amp. Originally the Excelon amp was under the right hand passenger seat and SIRIUS control under the left, but with another amp for the speakers it had to be done! I have my sub box set up in front of it, you can't even tell the amps are there

Thanks for the props all!

The entire setup is awesome! Great job.

You could mount the amps behind the side pannels in the back. That is where I have my two amps, HU Brain, Caps and Misc audio/video control stuff.

 

[GTA357]

I've got that little sub in the right hand side and the left hand side has too much electronics in it already, how did you fit that much back there? were your amps as big as these? Also might be a difference in the models we've got?

 

[Fish Man]

yea i know what you mean, those amps are pretty big. theres room infront of where the sub is at on the right but its a pain to get to. the left has some room too but dunno how much. oh well its tight anyway...whens it going back in the shop?

 

[GTA357]

not until Christmas break, then it gets a cam, new internals, a 4 link custom suspension, a BIG full custom intake straight into the blower, looking at something in the 3 and a half inch range, possibly running through the firewall as a cold air intake. Then it gets the methanol enabled and a retune, then it's done for a while (maybe)

 

[Fish Man]

haha awesome
