good call on removing the badges... Post up some pics of that fresh paint! Also, get that beast to the track and then post a timeslip so we can see just how bad it is.

another question i have is how much horsepower the car is producing? it had the flowmasters when i got it and so far iv also added a steeda CAI. i know the difference between the PI and the non PI engines are huge, but since my 96 has and 01 engine, how much hp can i expect?

probably like 264-265 hp, i got an 01 saleen motor in mine. looked it up all over the intarweb, only thing special for mine was a custom grind cam for the blower. sometimes i wish i went with a forged cobra motor.

Well the quickest way to get 300 rwhp out of your car (I'm assuming) would either be a supercharger or nitrous.

The supercharger probly wont be coming until atleast another 150 paychecks and im not into the whole nitrous thing, i dont know why, its just not my style. so far others have suggested underdrive pulleys and a new throttle body, but what kind of underdrive pulleys and what size throttle body?

Have you used nitrous? Most people that say nitrous isn't there thing, have never used nitrous. IF you want 300hp quickly and cheap then nitrous is your route.

well if im at 270 hp now theres gotta be a way to get to 300 naturally aspirated, plus once i get to 300 i know im gonna want more power...so the nitrous will most likely find its way into my stang sooner or later.

The money you spend on bolt ons to achieve 300 flywheel hp will be more then it costs to buy nitrous and hit the 350 rwhp mark. If I had it all over to do again, that would have been my second mod rather than some of the crap ive got.
