That does appear to be a very clean car. I thought you told me 72,000 miles, 62,000 is even better. I must admit, if everything goes as you are hoping, I think you got a better deal than my mother's Mustang. Sure, her car has MAC exhaust, a K&N, clear corner headlights with better bulbs, and a Sony CD player... but it also has nearly 30,000 miles more and the price was the same for this one other than the shipping charge. I'm glad she kept it for herself anyway. This way there's one more 'stang around rather than 1 that just traded owners. ;D So have you added any mods to the list since we last spoke? We were up to... Tune up MAC Stainless Steel Cat-Back CAI Tuner (Can I borrow that? lol) Clear corner headlights Silverstar bulbs 55W fog light bulbs Professional window tinting I know we talked about plenty of other mods, but I mean the stuff you wanted to do ASAP. Lowering would be very nice on that car. A Kenne Bell would be even better. You should bring it up once you get the initial stuff done. I'll borrow her car. They'd be nearly identical, especially if you let me plug that tuner in.  Close races are always fun... unles it's a ricer and then the smaller they look in my mirrors the better. |

just ordered mac exhaust and clear headlights. and k&n intake. Gonna get all tune up stuff maybe sometime this week, belt, plugs, oil, filter, coolant, all the good stuff. the tuner will come later i am spending way too much money and am still waiting on another check to come in. the mileage was a typo i meant to hit 72062. New laptop and keys are so very close together.

New (to you) car, performance parts on the way, new laptop... someone needs to start sending me checks. lol If you get bored counting all of your money, send some up here and I'll spend... I mean count... it for you. ;D I think some of our other members could use some new scooter parts too, should we get a mailing list together for you?

You bought a CD player instead of a tuner... ..and you already have a 6 disc changer in there with the Mach 460 system... I won't even say it.  |

That'll put you at 300RWHP or a little less tuned. If you do even larger injectors, TB, intercooler, MAF, x-pipe, headers, and run 12psi you might hit 400RWHP for a few thousand extra. It'd be so much easier to get a Kenne Bell in the first place. Did you ever check on Roush kits for '99-'04s? If they make anywhere near the power they do on the 05+ and offer a tuned RTR package, that may be worth it.

I've seen that vid, but it's been a while. That's about how I drive a stick. lol I drove a friend's 306 H/C/I Mustang with a T5. Slowing down for my driveway, I hit first and let the clutch out quick and locked the tires up . The friend was in the car with me. lol I still hear about that one. i dont want an ungodly amount of power, just enough to keep up. enough to give an edge. Depends who you're trying to keep up with. |
