looks good man were did tou get your DD on the back i want 2 get them for the back on my car?
I got the DD`s from www.mustangtuning.com But dont even try there. They are always out of stock. I`ve seen them on ebay the other day. They`ve been out of stock everywhere though for a while for some reason. It took me a while to get them. I think the next best place to get them is from www.mrt-direct.com They seem to be the cheapest.

doesn't lowering springs hurt your 1/4 mile times and improve handling around corners? I wish mine wasn't lowered and had drag springs/shocks.

I'm not sure if lowering it itself hurts the times, or what you lower it with. My bro dropped his Mach1 with H&R Sports, MM C/C plates, threw some 18x9/18x10 bullits on and ran .2 slower, consistantly! He is blaming his springs for a bad launch

The lowering springs are much stiffer than the stock springs. With the flexible stock springs, you exchange the weight much easier than you would with stiffer springs. Even with this said though, I still think it's worth it to get a mild drop, just get super u/l control arms and full length sub-frames to compensate for the stiffer springs.

Dude, you have to tell me where you got your white face guages and then you might have to help me install mine. Give me a PM when you are going to take that thing out and I will meet you. Maybe we can hit the busybee car wash and bathe our stangs. Let mw know about those guages.

its quite an easy process after calling mself52 a couple of times :P

Thanks guys.
Yeah I know it needs to be lowered but that will probly be one of the last things I do.
Next mod may be a vortech s/c. Not sure as of yet though.

Yeah I took it out. It was just too much yellow. I think it looks better the way it is now.

Your car is very clean! Nice man.

I agree, I think suspension should be next on your list. Whats good in getting a blower when you can't put the power to the ground? Build your suspension.

Those 18s aren't helping his times either.
