Where do you want to beat him? A set of 4.56s and slicks, and you will kill him stoplight to stoplight.

If you really think about it, almost any RWD car can be made into a stoplight racer monster. Your just gonna be falling back REALL quick once you make it past 35-40 or so.

If you want to still be able to drive your car, id say a 100 shot, bolt ons (upper intake etc, 3.73s, underdrives, exaust) and a set of drag radials and you should be raping em. Your car made what, 225 hp stock? A 100 shot and boltons gotta have you at LEAST upwards of 325 HP. That should be enough to take a mach 1

My question would be, why is it so necessary to spend this kind of energy and money, just to beat on another Mustang? Did this guy insult your mother or something?

Why not just sell the '98 and buy something with potential w/o having to swap heads and other such things. You bought one of the slowest Mustangs EVER produced and you want it to outrun one of the fastest ones.

One sure and cheap way to beat a Mach 1 is to shoot out his tires.Cost, about .25 cents,well,except for that going to jail thing.

such as nitrous, super charger or what?
It all depends on what your willing to spend...I would get exhaust and a supercharger and maybe a gear swap to 3.55's then you should be there..

Good point man...I've always said that the 94-98 GT's are the ones that give street ricer civics with the fart tube exhaust hope......Not fast at all...I could never understand what the guys at ford were thinking when they installed the motors in those car's....They took a major turn in the wrong direction when it came to performance.

The only difference is heads... not a huge deal. SHHHHH! I think my stang can hear you guys! 225 is fine for me... no need to race F-bodies, just driving to school in a fun car.

Well those heads took more than a second off the quarter...Low 15's 94-98 GT's to High 13's 99+ GT's... That's a BIG difference my friend.
