How many programmers here are into cars?

Not just buying something fancy but also modifying them?

For the last decade or so, I've leased all my cars but back in the day, I was into Dodge cars; belong to car clubs (and ran one). Had no problem getting under the hood and making some changes - did my own breaks, tire rotation, changed oil, etc...

We still lease a car, our SUV. The wife's lease was to run out this August; I had / have had a craving for something more sporty so talked to a few dealers and such and got her into a 2016 Mustang Convertible. She hates cars so the Mustang is mine and she now drives my SUV, haha. (We bought this one)

Already ordered a bypass value to blow off valve conversion for the turbo to get the traditional turbo waste blow off sound back. Trying to decide between a full turbo-back exhaust and a axel-back exhaust (something I'll probably have installed professionally as I don't have a lift) as the exhaust note on the Ecoboost is a bit disappointing. I'll install the cold air intake myself and will probably get a tuner device (I like the one by Cobb Racing). Might even try to hit up a few car shows this summer.

Anyone else handy with a wrench?
