Hey Guys,
I picked up my 2017 ES DCT Base last summer. My last car was a 2011 ford focus se with a whopping 120 hp, so car building is pretty new to me but I'm learning as I go. I got into racing sims and wanted something I could take to track days and have some fun with while still being my daily.
I'm in the people's republic of Massachusetts so things like Muffler Deletes are tricky while keeping it street legal. Below you can find my build list and current progress along with updates. A lot of the mods I'm still researching the best options if you have a suggestion let me know below.
Currently I've got 35% tint all the way around, and I just installed a SXTH intake with BPV & Breather deletes.
