But look at how many people here can't get their stock or even modified PI stangs to beat my 14.2.

Here, let me fix that for ya....

YouTube - 100 shot

True, but I would say for certain that it has more to do with the driver and track conditions than with the car itself. With the exception of the odd automatic equipped, or convertible New Edge stang, pretty much any '99-up GT is able to run low-14's in stock trim with relative consistency?

I would say that you knocking down the 14.2 with your pre-PI GT is more the anomaly in this comparison.

Nice time either way.

I rode in a non pi stang, 97 I believe with roughly the same mods as mine just not tuned. Not to knock you non pi guys but it was seriously lacking in low end torque. I have no doubt that my car would put a few car lengths on one from stop to 100.

My 96 N/A NPI TBird doesn't have a problem with PI Stangs, hell it even picks on SC'd ones and wins.

Perhaps...but you and I both know our cars get beaten like "Red Headed Step Children" in stock trim.

only vid i have of me driving my car past a camera, mainly for stock sound comparison to possible future mods. i spin a bit in 2nd , my launch was pretty bad though , i didnt wanna spin all through 1st so i launched easy, my tires are pretty bad.

98E9GT · Oct 16, 2008

I was just wondering what kind of estimated numbers i would put down with, PI intake, K&N drop in, Ported NPI heads, PI Cams, LT's with custom H pipe? I will post another vid this later this week, im going to take in some of your guys advice and see if I have improved any better.

I would guess about 245-255 at the wheels if I had to take a shot in the dark.

With those mods you should walk on 99-04's. The only N/A 99-04's that have beaten me have had pretty much every bolt-on you can get. Stock PI's are pretty much done for.

Once I get done with MBT and Tech School, I'll be adding DR's and a plenum/tb combo and I'll be shooting for 12.9's. After that she goes on the bottle while I save for an engine swap.

A friend of mine at the track said he could hear my car scrtch 4th. 4.10's will do that I guess. I've posted a vid here of a little goofyness where I get squirlley in second.

You must be blind because I clearly state in my sig I have a Tri-Ax shifter. Its alot shorter than factory. Is an MGW even shorter?

Hey guys, my friend has a 99 GT 5spd, 373's CAI, plenum throttle body, underdrive pulleys. I have basically stock, just a PI intake and K&N filter. I just got some heads i will be porting out, with hopefully some comp cams 262s. Oh I will try to do Long Tubes while i have the motor apart also. Is this enough that wipe that grin off his uptight a$$? He is always putting down NPI cars. If this isnt enough, what other mods should i get? Thanks

Best bet is to get a good 60ft, drive it like you hate it & you can possibly hold them off thru about the middle of third gear. As for the top of third and all of forth you might want to invest in a little spray.
