Don't think I've ever been in a car that fast, kindof sad. I drove a GTO at the dealership I worked at but didn't have a chance to really open it up. My fathers G...can't think of anything else I've had the chance to drive an open up besides test driving a G37s, what do they run stock?

no stall- I plan on swapping in a manual tranny at some point, so no major mods to the auto.

Just a thought here but have you thought about selling the M-112 and buying an upgraded Ford Whipple charger? It's a twin screw design which is much more efficient and generates less heat. That's what most 03/04 Cobra owners swap out to, that or a Kenne Bell.

Like I said, just a thought, you already had the M-112 adaptor plate and both the Whipple and Kenne Bell use the M-112 mounting setup.

I think what he's thinking is the M112 can over power the stock bottom end, so there's no need to drop $3000 on a blower that the motor can't make the most of.

True, thought he was gonna do the block while he's at it, but yeah, an 8 psi twin screw may be a little much for a stock block or at least putting it on the fringe.

where in NH are you taking it to? I had shift kits on my last two trucks and I will never own another automatic with a purpose with out one (meaning a fun car or work vehicle NO issues either, I would actually put a 3kish stall in and see how you like it before dropping the 5 speed.

a whipple or KB would look cool but really isnt needed

Performance Dyno- Timmy is bringing his cobra there, and so is his friends new F1-swap.

Getting a tranny flush in the spring, so Im going to find out how much he would charge to install it.

nope- just a cam for now. stock lower intake, heads, and everything else.

and If i had 3k for a TS, I would either have a nice Lincoln Mark or a JP Jeep next to the mustang
