Hi I'm new here but I have some stang questions.
I have an 89 2.3 5spd manual trans. and I have the following mods.
35% tinted windows, skull shift knob, lightup seat covers, broken ashtray door, a 5" tach oh meter, pedal covers, and a 10ft APC sticker that wraps across the hood, roof and trunk. I honestly noticed some difference but since I've covered about everything what else can I do to make 300 horse powers at the wheels?

thanks you guys is pros.

Putting a green bulb in the little chrome light is good for an extra 3lb of boost on a NA, 6 on a turbo.

I hear that body panels painted different colors add tons of power... especially when they flap in the wind.

What are you guys thinking??? You gotta have the huge 20in gold rims, and the car completely covered with stickers and "decals" so that nobody can acutally see the color of your car! Oh yea and don't forget the giant aluminum wing and the huge fart cannon on the back...
you'll be sure to make 300 ponies then...

LOL yeah thats what I was thinking...

Don't forget about the APC illuminated exhaust tip. Those have been dyno proven to add 37rwhp and 62lb/ft torque.

stickers that look like carbon fiber, or, if that's too expensive, just paint things with a dark primer, it looks the same from about 300 yards away. the carbonfiberlook adds another 32.1 hp and also, colored wireshrouds under the hood, last j-spec mustang i saw with that was crankin 295 hp at the transaxle.... TIMMMAAAYYY!!!!!
