Step 1 of 4 done!
 
Well, been motivating myself to get the GT on the road after letting it sit for two seasons.
I started off by waxing it last week, then yesterday I pulled the wheels off, and detailed them. I think now I want to drive it. LOL

So the steps I need to get it back on the road.

1. Have the rear o2's turned on in my tune. As of today, done!! Got the new tune file in my email today in which Steeda.ca had to turn on my o2's in my custom tune. So it's now in my GT's computer.
Reason why, fn E test.

2. Insurance. I'm debating on a collector insurance like Hagerty, or keep it with my current insurer. Then get some miles on it to get the drive cycle done. It has fire, and theft, but that won't do. LOL

3. E test providing my highflow cats in my Bassani x pipe don't throw a check engine light before hand after the drive cycle is done (reason why most tuners turn off the rear o2's because of the history of highflow cats). I'm hoping they won't as they are the redesigned versions, because they had issues with the earlier versions a few years or so back.

4. Then sticker!!!

You'll have to post some fresh pictures of the Mustang and the work you have done.

I'm looking forward to driving it again. That feeling is some what there. So that's a start.
And AP, you're right.... I think this will help keep me clear.

Once it's the GT is in the wild again, i will snap some new pics.

My car came from ontario and was etested there with the rear O2 sensors turned off and passed

Interesting. Wonder how? When was that? I was told if one was "off" I would be ok, but with two, it would fail. I really don't know what to expect as this is the first time the GT is getting tested under the "new" way since the change of the sniffer to the computer OBDII port.

Either way, they are turned on now. Just time will tell if the engine light will go off before the test.
