Welcome to the siteI dont have to cut it up but it does need some horsepower. I feel more guilty modifying the car the way it sits .It is stock stock stock but I am chompin at the bit to start tweakin things and the #1 thing is that motor .But my wife is holding me back and wont let me touch it she is just in love with the car .If this freaks you out you should have saw the 1992 MARK VIII with 53k on it that I yanked the motor and drive train out of for my mustang .

You would be surprised how much of a difference a t-5, manual boost controller, K&N cone, and a 3 inch exhaust would make!This would be a great place to start. http://www.turbotbird.com/techinfo/Mods/Mods01.htm Quote Selected

New to the forum pic of the new ride Reply #25 – March 18, 2012, 10:42:33 PM As long as the doesnt die, why not do an engine swap. I agree with porkchopper, put the 2.3 in the rail and drop a 5.0 or 5.8 in. I've always wanted to put a 2.3 in a dragster. Quote Selected

New to the forum pic of the new ride Reply #27 – March 19, 2012, 08:19:28 AM More pics of the Mustang! If the car is under your wife's protection you might as well play with the 2.3 for a little while. You might just like it although a unique engine swap would be cool too. Quote Selected
