Lets see forged 346, ported blower, 75 shot, 4.10's and DR's....I wonder if I could get into the 9's?

Yeah, and you'll have (at bare minimum) a 5 year old car... you realize some people don't want an old car, right? You people take this "anti-Mustang" **** too far... if the next Corvette had 500hp and weighed 3800lbs, you'd all still be all over it's nuts

having a 5 year old car wasnt the point, the point was that i couldnt get a fbody in to the 9's even though there in the 8's already and maybe 7's idk 100% sure on that. an the other thing is that i can do it cheaper.

im not "anti-mustang" just anti-5.4 supercharged car that does a high 12 in a 1/4.

i just dont understand y they can make a nice looking car, but cant make it fast and it has alot of power left on the table. but for stock its not fast enough for the price tag. it should at least be in the high 11's or low 12's with that motor supercharged from the factory

Well it's a good thing you're not one of the thousands of target customers that stood in line to get one

lol you just dont give up do you. this went from the new mustang gt to the gt500 to now a fox body. are you also adding the price of the car in it b/c im not. just the parts. and i havnt seen a fox body yet to run 9's except for the one that had the ls1 in it

i can do it for that price or less to its called buy a 402 iron ls2 short block, put l92 heads on it, ls6 intake manifold, vengeance VRX7 244/248 .612/.596 112/113/114 LSA cam, and 300 shot of nitrous. on a 98 stripped out camaro, with drag slicks, and suspension. and that is still about that price or less and i would be doing all the work.

Pretty much what I expected. He might was well just ditch the trunk lid and see if he can go faster.

Speaking of Racing..I don't think that the Guy is goin to re-match, I think he figured out that he is beat..
He told me that he got re-tuned, but didn't say anything after that..probably didn't want to loose his money..

I got my Tune in mine, so it's pretty much good now, I didn't say anything about that..

I don't think he is goin to run..probably figured out that his N20 won't make much of a difference when he gets smoked out of the hole..and that is where my car is weak.
