Default US Soldier

Hello guys. Yes, I am a US Soldier( loving every minute of it) and my wife has me on a budget. I guess that you could say I am the EBAY king!!I have a 03 GT (5 speed manual) and it has become my hobby. So far I have a Intake spacer, Flowmaster catback exhuast, o/r h-pipe (the sound is awesome) and a k&N CAI system. I bought Richmond 3:73 gears and will be putting those on in the next two weeks. The question that I have, will those mods, including the gears and also a SCT tune get me into the 13's? One last question is there anyone in the Fort Leonard Wood MO area a member of this club? Thanks guys!!!

It should. High 13.8's Im a vet and Im sure there is plenty of people in this club that can help you out w/ finding people from that area. Are you a engineer ??Last I knew, that where you trained to be a engineer. There's is a forum at the bottom of the main page for finding people in your area. It's been helpful for me. It sounds like you have most of the bolt on's ,minus the TB and plenum,pullies and headers.Don'k know much about ebay, be careful.
Your gears will really wake up your stang.Bring your SCT tuner to a speed shop and havea air/fuel dyno done. Thats the second best thing you can do to get your stang to run right.What soldier doesn't like a stang. God Bless .

GO TO THE BOTTOM OF THE MAIN PAGE AND GO TO OHTER. Then look for Regional and Missouri would be under midwest or central(you'll have to figure that out. This should help you find other mustang guys in your area.
