thinking about buying a
Hi all,
I'm thinking about buying a mustang (94-98 sn95 style) and wanted to ask a few questions before making my decision. I know that style mustang is pretty slow stock because of the added weight over the fox-body, and the smaller 4.6-liter engine, but how well does it respond to upgrades? Given a $1000 budget (for example) for bolt-ons how much power could a GT make?
Also, what are the weak points to that generation 'stang? What should I look for when I go shopping?
Thanks.

I had an '01 GT vert (AT) but a 16 year old girl turned across traffic in front of me and it was totaled. Now I have a 96 GT vert (5 spd) w/67000 miles and am very happy with it. I think the first owner made some upgrades, because it seems as fast as or faster than the 02. But maybe it's the manual transmission.
The 4.6 is a great engine and can really respond to upgrades. I'm planning on replacing the heads with some hi performance heads and putting in a new cam. I'm sure it will scream.

It will respond very well to upgrades. The biggest problem is simply the lack of air the car has access to. heads, intake, etc. will help a lot. For your budget, you should think of gears and exhaust first. Stay away from nos. Build a car that is truly fast and then add nos if you need the extra kick.
