Ok, if you had unlimited money to upgrade your current Stang, what would you do to it? Everything from engine to exterior to interior. The only rule is you have to keep your current stang. Mine is:

5.4L DOHC w/ forged everything
KB 2.2 Mongoose Kit
Tremec T56 Swap
200 Shot Nitrous (for when a hennessey viper wants to race me )
Full SLP Exhaust
Cobra IRS
Track Suspension, not strip
Cobra R Brakes
Mach 1 Hood w/ functioning scoop (I'd figure out how to make it work w/ the blower)
01 Cobra Front Bumper
03 Cobra Side Skirts
01 Cobra Taillights
18" Chrome Saleens (?)
HID Kit (lol)
Liscense Plate that says "Bye Bye"

Anyway, I figure I'll be close to 1000HP on the bottle and even then I say screw a roll cage and all that. I want it to look like a fast street car, no slicks or anything like that. I don't care how much the tires will spin!

What about you?

 

uummmm...lets see
Built 4V
Twin Turbos
Solid rear
Full MM suspension
Nothing exterior except wheels
And all the other little things

 

JMS Targa top(will have next winter anyways)

Air ride( will have sometime)

A twin turbo 4.3 stroker running 10's.....

 

Ford Racing 460ci/500hp Super Cobra Jet Engine.

 

well...

-basically an 03 cobra engine
-t-56 6 speed tranny
-Kenne Bell S/C
-Roush Stage 3 Front end
-03 cobra hood
-03 cobra side skirts
-just my GT rear bumper
-GT 8.8 rear end
-3.73's with tlock
-Long tubes
-bbk o/r x
-magnaflow magnapacks
-everything you can get for performace suspension

 

Mongoose, VT blower Cams, some little suspension, and THATS IT. I want a 400-450 stock block, daily driven monster, not some damn useless 1000 million hp thing that burns the tires in 6th gear. I could have MUCH more fun in my 400 hp car than you will in your 1 million hp car on street tires. Oh, but first, im paying this stinkin thing off...right...just like I wasnt buying longtubes with my tax return...HAHAHAHAHA

 

I want to get rid of my car and get a 2004 Cobra and do a little tweaking here and there and call it a day.

 

im with fastback with the twin turbos and built 4v...that mother would be fun to drive

 

300 rwhp and paid off and I'd be more than happy.

 

Depends, will the engine from the SAleen S7 fit in our cars? If so, that is all (well, besides the suspension/brakes/trans. upgrades to handle it)

 

I'd like the mach to be paid off first....then I could get a beater to drive during the week.

1. Cams
2. 4:10 gears
3. Black rims (not sure which ones) Nitto Drs
5. Suspension upgrades
6. Long Tube Headers
7. PHP Intake Spacer
8. Accufab Throttle Body
9. Rear Seat Delete
10. 1/2" Shaker Extension
11. Meziere Electric Water Pump
12. Clutch Upgrade

I'm probably forgetting something, but that's my list. Everything on my list is pretty realistic for me, but I probably wouldn't do the gears, cams and long tube headers until I had another daily driver.

 

My car already has a full PI swap, boltons, full exhaust, FR500 wheels on the way, 95 Cobra R hood ready for paint, MT Springs, KYB GR2 shocks/struts, UPR LCA

Appearance:
Cobra front bumper

Suspenion:

Forge the hell out of my Teksid block (because I heart my Teksid)
Go Turbo
Rebuild the T-45 and make that sucker strong as hell
Stronger clutch (Centerforce or a nice Spec)
Aluminum Driveshaft (change the spline to a 31 spline setup)

Drive.

You don't want your car to put out more than 300hp?? rwhp or flywheel? your kidding right?? If you drove a stang with 300rwhp you'd take that comment back in a heart beat cause it's a kick in the pants....I know cause I get to do it everyday! ha ha

 

It doesn't seem like I'm the slow one.....I think with 240ish hp makes you the slow one. ha ha ha

I wasn't trying flame you dude, I was just shocked that you said you didn't want more than 300hp cause usually mustang owners always want more power. I hear ya on keeping the car very drivable, that's why I said in my post that I would need another daily driver before doing most of the big motor mods.

 

first step....actually get one....:wallbash:
