Fox's are cool, but not nearly as cool/nice/reliable as a new edge GT, or SN95 for that matter. S/C the GT!!!
+1

Do the s/c, and be happy with "only" 350+ rwhp until you pass the bar.

Really my vote goes for S/Cing the DD and keeping it such...find yourself a good used kit on ebay (i just got mine for 1600 shipped). Nice cheap way to get yourself into the low 12s.

Here is why I want to be a lawyer.


1. The law and legal system really interests me.
2. I am good at it and understand it with ease.
3. My father is a pipe fitter and my mother is an english teacher so this would be a great step up.
4. I want to do something good and noble with my life (ie if I could be a doctor I would just so I could help people)
5. In staying with number 4 I am going to be a prosecutor and put the scum bags away

So wish me luck.

its a paxton novi1000. You want to make sure you are getting a complete kit, or damn near it. Also talk to the buyer and make sure its in good condition, no shaft play, etc. If they lie about things like that you can report it back to paypal / ebay and force a refund I believe. Make sure they have real pictures of the actual kit and not just some BS pics from the companies website or something. The guy I got mine from was actually very knowledgeable about the kit / mustangs, which made me feel a bit better.

I bought mine used off Ebay and cant be happier! Just make sure you see real pics of the actual unit. More than one or two pics also. get the serial number off the head unit and call the company to see if its ever been serviced. Found out mine had new seals and bearings! Got 75% of the kit for $700 and found the rest of the parts here around town.
