Ok. Well I'm buying the car and first thing thats getting done is a dyno tune so we will see. I rode in my friends evo today that dynoed at 345whp and I'm pretty sure the fox is just as fast but we will see when I race him.

i forget who said it but i remember, someone had a newer mod motor stang that would run a faster time at the track than their fox stang, but riding in the fox you would swear it was faster.
i agree with mjr, save your money for a track run instead

Ok for comparison I have also ridden and driven a 5.0 with H/C/I, full exhaust and 4.10's. This one felt faster. It will be getting a dyno tune and will hit up the local 1/8th track when it reopens.
