    More Power :)

    Just finished getting my car dyno'd post install of Boss manifold, Steeda CAI, and 93 tune by BBR. WOW, color me impressed :) The torque curve is flat! And my car didn't lose a thing. I went from a max torque of 358.94 to 368.38 and it never dipped below the stock curve once passed 2400...

    Manual Drag Racing

    I'm running my manual at the drag strip, and I was wondering if anyone else was running manuals at the track? I just want to learn anything that you guys might have picked up. I'm getting better, but I want to know what others are doing for launch rpm, how much you ride the clutch, balancing the...

So no real diffence there. 87 : HP= 371.16, Torque= 352.98 93: HP=374.54, Torque=...

    Took The Sound Tube Out.

    Took out the sound tube and hit the twisties with the kids today. So I had to take it easy, but still had a lot of fun. I like not having the sound tube in, no real sound change in the cabin except there is no whistle at WOT and it cleans up the engine bay nicely.

    Autocross And Trackdays In The Future.

    First off, I love the new Mustang. It absolutely ROCKS. That being said, I just can't leave it alone. How many people have autocrossed or gotten out on a road course with their Mustang? Any recommendations for racing schools on the east coast/NC area? I really want to get my car on the track and...
