This thread is starting to get ridiculous. You clearly want a different car so get rid of yours and do it. Everyone who tries to convice you not to you just get mad at and defend your decision. It's obvious that you will be happier with a different car.
Why? That's what I've watched them make before on that type of dyno
A rated 215 at the flywheel, on an 'unforgiving' dyno doesn't really put it that out of line. Granted that's about 10 lower than a 20% value, which seems to be on par with most mustang dyno's vs. a dynojet. Perhaps the one at Powerhouse Automotive is extra stingy
I made 296/315 on the same dyno. My car gets it pretty damn good. I'm getting some track #s this friday with it. I realize my other thread posting where I was discouraged vs. the LS1 mod for mod however I have no more doubts about cars with like two bolt ons going 12s.
FWIW, my DEAD STOCK 5.0, that probably DID make it's 160 'range' to the wheels couldn't even break 90mph at our local track 14.9 @ 89.xx. on a 2.1 60' The numbers really aren't that far off from how they perform; they aren't exactly the fastest cars stock.
Just some food for thought.
i like the thread myself. im not getting mad, im just making argumentative points. isnt that alot of the point for a forum?
but the points you and hanky constantly argue are ones that everyone else knows. It's well established you own a mustang, to just own a mustang. If I wanted to go fast, i'd have bought a chevrolet a long time ago, but being that I don't want to have a mullet ride around in a piece of crap with alot of power, I stayed with the good ol solid small blocks. It seems as though you and hanky both had high expectations when buying a mustang, and they were far off. And I don't know how you only run a 14.9, there are TONS of 5.0s out here running 13's that have the 'driver mod' done to them.
i just feel like it's two mullet wannabe's running around with mustangs, trying to point out the flaws and bad parts, when we already f**king know, if you got into these cars not knowing, it just means your a dumbass and you need to sell it before you kill someone. The fact of the matter is, 95% of the mustang owners here run good times for the cars, but it seems as though yall two are the slow bastards who won't stop complaing, not in this thread, nor in another. So i suggest either realize your ignorance or move on. This ain't my first 5.0 is slow thread my friend
i thought about it and i almost decided to make a post and apologize for this thread getting somewhat outta hand. but then i changed my mind - im not responsible for the posts of others.
i made this this thread to get comments, info and constructive criticism about my possible car swap. i've gotten that, which is what i wanted. plenty on here are defending why i should keep it. again, what i wanted. BUT its my call to see if the arguements posted are strong enough to convince me not to sell it. like i stated earlier, i do appreciate all the posts (some less than others) and comments. there is nothing wrong with reasonable arguements on this, or any other subject. i think it makes for a interesting thread.
just to be as clear as i can, here is what im looking for: something with lower miles that can be had for a reasonable cost. something that is very clean inside and out. something that is comfortable and reliable. something that with minimal mods is capable of mid - high 13's. i do not have to have or expect 300whp.
fun, realiable, and purty.
and with this post you have answered your own question...

"Mullet wannabe's" lol wowSomeone should really get a moderator on this dude. This is an informational forum to discuss mustang related topics. If all your going to do is just blatantly attack other members then dude you seriously need to find another site. He started the thread for you to convince him which way to go keep the 95 or go 99up. Calling him a mullet rocking DA isn't going to do that. Take the somewhere else!
I think you oughta get whatever will make you happy. I know when jeremy and i drove the 05 up car the other day we LOVED IT!!! It was literally the most comfy car I have ever been in. Yet it also had alot of power too. And i love my car but i'm along with jeremy because i have also always wanted an 03-04 Cobra but it will be a while because I know I can't afford it right now but jeremy REALLY thinks things through and gets advice from everyone but always does whatever he decides to do on his own. He just always wants to know the pros and cons which I can't blame. I was just shocked to see some of the threads that got so out of line starting with stop sign and the mullet man too especially. Like jeremy said he would be so happy with 400hp and stop sign said he would get bored real fast????I have to agree with jeremy on that one. I love my car but i know it's not super fast by no means but i also love having a mustang instead of a chevy or something because when you pull up to a red light and take off there is absolutely NOTHING that sounds like a mustang. Main point is that everyone with a mustang already has something unique!!!!! They are great sounding and performance options definitely help. If ya can't afford it save up the money and do it a little along . Thats all it takes.
