it would be easier and probably cheaper to sell that car and buy a GT mustang.

The BBK, Cobra Rims, Lowering Springs, Subs, and Flowmasters are all slowing down the cars acceleration from a stop.

Ditto what was said above. Sell it, buy a V8.

Unless you have a complete parts car and are going to do all the work its not worth it. I have a Cobra motor in my GT and spent more that I would of liked to so you may want to listen. Return your v6 back to stock or buy your v8 and transfer all the parts you can.

I have black and hate it as you become a slave to it. If you want an easy color to maitain I say silver, my inlaw never washed his truck and it never looks dirty.
