thats not gonna start any fights(i dont think!) if you can get good gains from fewer mods then thats awesome! more power to the person! i guess its all about what you know will get good hp results!Originally posted by Jims5543
I dont want to fight w/ everyone over the gains from this o.k.?
I witnessed two identical Mustang GTs race. One was stock the other had a Steeda cat-back and a Diablosport chip. The modded one won by 3 cars in the 1/4.
Add a set of underdrive pulleys and you'll be out in front.
When I hook up w/ you guys and have my Mustang w/ me we can run. I have the chip/intake/cat-back mods. You see for yourself if its faster.

16-17s is really generous! ive heard that a stock 2.3 like mine will run high 18's! and i kinda like the car the way its is know for the autoX, i want the nitrous so i can go to bithlo and have a little fun, and maybe around town! the car now has 90,000 on it! i think it might be time for a tune up!
yeah thats what i was afraid of! oh well maybe its time to move on to a different car! ive been talking to Jim about rx-7, maybe that will be my next car! if i can im gonna keep the mustang and get the other one if the insurance isnt too bad to have both!Originally posted by baglock1
Well, it's an uphill battle, but it can be done. If you want to get anywhere near 15's or lower though, the "cheap" way would be with a bit of boost.

Just got my Nitto Drag Radials in I am ready!!
I tried to get both of them into trunk and didn't succeed. I pulled the spare and put one in the well and tried to put the other on top would fit needed about 5 more millimeters. I'll try it again next week. I want to change to the radials at the track.
I'll be in Palm Bay Firday afternoon. P.M. me and I'll send you my Cel phone # or Nextel code if any fellow Stangers have one.
White - If you want to hook up and drive up together that would be cool.
What time does Test and Tune start 6:00?????

I was going to suggest pullies and a TA just to start with, but Erich had enough of a time convincing his father to ok the tri-ax I figured anything done to the motor would definately not happen.
well actually after you left erich i was talking to my friend that was there and he heard you car leave and noticed you still had stock exhaust, and asked me if you were gonna do anything to it and i said you dad was giving you a hard time about voiding the warranty! but he told me that anything after the cats wont void the warranty! so that means that if you wanted to put flows on there you could and the warrant would still be good! so just tell that to your dad! and if he wants to call flowmaster and double check! so there is your next mod off of that list!Originally posted by erichmess_
Those 2 rounded out the top 5 of the first things that I had originally planned on doing to the car. It went K&N, Tri-Ax, Exhaust, Pullies and T/A. But just like Baglock said, my dad barely let me get the Tri-Ax. I couldn't imagine the debate I'd have to go through to get them.Oh well, better off saving money for my race car come december (hopefully).
actually about 10-15 minutes after you left, mfpmax, untouchable, and their other friend did show up! so it looks like baglock is the only one but he had a good excuse, he works all night, i dont blame him for wanting to sleep!Originally posted by erichmess_
I'll post pics from the show later. Over the comming week, prolly, since I'll be so buy. Very cool, though. At least White made it out, too. Unlike the rest of you slackers.
