Hi there! I will be a lurker no more. Owner of a 91 Fox. One day I'll own an S550...

Thank you! I'm in limbo... She's bone stock except for the exhaust and a slight timing advance. I'm thinking of 3.55 or 3.73 diff for a hidden boost. I keep hearing mods will lower its value, but I also can't stop looking at performance parts and wishing for more power.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!


Keep your gears, keep everything!

Put a Kenne Bell on that beeoch and swap some 86 tails in there (carefully wrap your cheese graters into a box).

You would also need fuel pump, injectors, tune, Boost-A-Pump, and a Boost-A-Spark. It would all fit under the hood and look stock.


Subframe connectors if you don't have them already.

Sweet looking ride. I'd try hard not to change it too much.

For the most part over time a clean bone stock car will fetch a nice price but if the mods are tasteful and done up right....

I just watched a video on that supercharger. It looks like they bolted it on to mostly stock motor and made almost 100hp. They didn’t really say but that’s what it looked like. Is that really possible?
