Also I know O'Reilly can shoot it with their match gun thing and mix it up on site.
Yes, usually under the hood on one of the metal plates with other build info on it. It should be a three digit code like PF8, D5H or such.

The plan is to touchup this car in spots, practice wet sanding/polishing down these marks, before attempting similar on the Mustang rock chips. I touched up some spots on the Mustang but some are raised or a bit too spread out and give a funny look on the car. I'd like to try to normalize them somewhat but want practice on the car we don't care about first.
Drivers door jam, middle under the barcode is your paint code.

And man I am going to wish I had gone your route with a full upgrade but a buddy of mine has a perfectly good center section, same gears etc...and all I can drop into my car for $500 this week and get it back on the road.

I think it was a freak deal but I guess we will see.
A 9" center shouldn't break unless it was a casting flaw or beat in a previous life, throw it back in and go.

Link me Hometeam? I'm still having trouble locating where to purchase correct one.

I'd have never guessed that from the massive list.

Thanks!

When I was daily driving my Mustang I used 89 fuel.

Now that I am driving it seldom, I don't mind paying more for a fill up. But would using a higher octane gas benefit me if the car isn't tuned for it? I've heard people say that but not sure I'd agree? Seems like 91 is about as high as it goes for most pumps here though.

And so I've learned in researching this question today, that Phoenix and most western states in general, only go to 91 at the pumps.

Guess that's what I'll be rolling with then since 93 seems non-existent.

If your car isnt tuned for it it will do nothing except cost you extra money.

My car is tuned pretty tight, and I 100% have to have 93. Fortunately for me, its all over central Missouri~

Fun note,

got a killer deal on some darkstars 15s with 28 inch tall MTs and 17 inch skinny frontrunners today, was so due for an upgrade.

9bolt goes in next week and we ready to do big boy stuff~

Good to know.

I have this tuner. Does it come with basic octane tunes preloaded? Or are they something I need to buy and upload to this?

I cant tell you much about mustang tuners, but I bet it does have preloaded 'base' tunes

Some things about living in Jersey suck, but every station has 93 thankfully. Hometeam is right, your tune will determine what you need/use. If you can only get 91 out there, make sure you tune for it.
