Have you been dyno tuned?

Are you on stock suspension? If so then more power does you no good. Could always lighten the car up.

my mustang is after weight loss
now weighs 2,770 lbs (2,990 me) (SN95)

I live in Poland, there is no dragstrip, are only the old airport at which they..has no traction even the M / T ET Street


A year ago on dyno 336HP and 340 torque on the flywheel, on shorty headers,stock injectiors,A/C,Smog itd..
Now there should be more

Suspension upgrades would surely help traction. Alot.

you can squirt 100-150 all day long even more.

but yes, if you knew 60 foot times that would be better.... because every tenth of sixty is worth 2 tenths of ET. so basically if you STOP spinning your tires, you can "feel" like you added 50-100 hp

but, i would suggest something like mega bite jr lower control arms, they are awesome. also maybe heat up those mickeys more..... and drop pressure. if they are radial go about 25 psi, if they are bias-ply and won't leak, go down to about 15

look at something like NOS and NX kits, wet or dry whatever you feel lke doing, if you just want another 100 hp, i'd do a dry kit. a bit easier install and keeps fuel out of your upper intake. i prefer dry kits, but mostly NEVER squirt more than 100, i am usually jetted about 75 and i knock a full second off that way. i use the 5115 dry kit from NOS, whichever kit you pick, do NOT use one that freezes the maf or injects b4 the maf. into the tb is fine, but not b4 the maf

Thanks guys for your help,
my best 60 ft 2.2sec on M / T tires, and the usual 2.4-2.5 s pretty bad

My suspension is stock, 15 - year, but are harder lower springs and new shock absorbers.

there is your problem... Lowering the car does NOT hep you with launching.

You need new suspension parts. Upper and lower control arms, stock springs in the rear, adjustable shocks (or lakewood 50/50 rear 70/30's front)
