    What Kind Of Gains???

    You might also want to consider any tire changes with that gear ratio decision.....going from stock 55 series tires to 40 or 35 series for added tread width can effectively turn that 4.10 into a 4.30 ratio.

    My Personal Pics From Pri 2015 Mustang

    It may depend on how expensive the oil gets that's used to make tires with real sidewalls. LOL

    Hey New Here Just A Quick Question?

    Just for comparison.....my 1971 Nova SS was an auto with a 350 cid, a cam, 3.73 gears (14" dia wheels) and was lighter than the newer Mustangs...... 14.34 was my best 1/4 mile pass in it. The newer FI technologies and engine designs definitely work.

    Considering Nitrous

    I agree with 200xp8....nitrous works really great on game consoles or in the cinema classics...Fast & Furious 1,2,3,4, &5, but on the street I would have reservations. It's cheap enough when compared to the price of cams & install, or a blower....but there's the refill cost and finding a place...

    Wheels For 2000

    Speaking of lowering....what does that do to the shock/strut piston travel ? The wheel well gap just gets worse with lower profile tires.

    Looking For New Car

    And when you get the finances....buy an 07 or 08 Shelby GT 500 with under 10k miles for $35k and 600 hp...less coin than a new GT and will tear up most anything you'll encounter on the street....with no mods. My 05 GT with about 350 hp & 4.10's has never walked away from a...

    Hey New Here Just A Quick Question?

    Don't forget to compare torque in your quest to be impressed....that's what will glue you to the drivers seat during acceleration. Although the bone stock GT's do a decent job of delivering good gas mileage, but at the end if the day, musclecars weren't intended to compete with the Prius for...

    2005-2009 Project Baseline: First Post From New Member Seeking Guidance

    I suppose you could go with an 07 or 08 Shelby GT 500 that sells in the mid $30k range....it's already supercharged and easily produces over 600 hp. All that's left are cosmetics added to a strong powertrain. I know I could spend way more on my 05 GT and still have a less powerful car...

    2005 Mustang Gt Convertible Premium

    My 05 convertible only has 35k on it, but my 98 has 150k .....both will last a long time, have decent resale, and have tons of parts available for restoring/repair/improvement if needed. I can't say the latter for my Elantra beater car.

    How Much Hp To Run 12s In Sn95 And In Fox?

    If you want to run 12's per the OP, I've read that a Stage 3 Rousch runs mid to low 12's....you could mimmick one of those or add nitrous to a stock or modestly modded 2v 4.6
