worked v6 said:Maybe. I would say port out your upper/lower intake manifold... it's cheap and effective.www.rpm-mustangs.com This guy will do anything you want done... he has a bunch of options already to choose from as far as what you want done to your intake manifolds and heads etc. Also is your car AT or MT, some headers would help alot.

o comon you gotta count his 200lb weight difference for a little something lolSwarzkopf said:So...we've got a 185hp car now. V8 Mustangs with 215 hp usually run mid 15s. You've got 30 less hp. I'll give you high 15s. Knock off half a second for your traction lock/gears and your low 15s.
And I was VERY generous. Of course, I'd love for you to prove me wrong...
Swarzkopf said:How do you guys figure him to run 14s? No offense anyone...but maybe if this was a 99+ V6 car. As it is:
1998 Pacific Green V6 Mustang- running 16.5 or so stock.
Performance Mods:
-Magnaflow Dual Exhaust Kit (w/ h-pipe)
Without cars, you may have gained 15hp on this car. With cats, 10 at best.
-Mac Cold Air Intake
Blargh...I'll spot you 5hp for this, though it's probably more like 1 or 2 after the engine heats up.
-BBK Underdrive Pulley
Okay, these help significantly. I'll give you 10hp here.
-Diablo Sport Chip w/ flip switch
Advances timing I assume? I'll spot you 5hp.
-Ford Racing Traction Lock
-Ford Racing 3.73 Gears
This will be a big help. We'll be VERY generous and knock .5 off of your ET for this.

FunkMasterFlex said:worked v6: i dont know why you keep plugging headers as giving massive power gains. on unboosted unhighly modded v6's they have been proven(5.0 mustang ran a v6 mod test) to not add any significant hp. just dont want to misinform him about mods but as far as all the testing ive heard of/read v6 headers arent gonna help you out until your already making some good power
