yeah they dont come all the time, I'm up there every week during the summer and they show up on the street legal eliminator days. I think you are referring to the red 96 cobra with white racing stripes? It is def. a fast car, but they need to get the power to the ground a little better.

i would not take my car to SGS. a buddy of mine took his hell raiser twin turbo/supercharged car to them to get it tuned and all they could get out of it was 700rwhp and i hear bad things about them all the time. i am from hanover and personally, i would go to keith's pit stop in gettysburg. i personally know keith and i send all my mustang buddies up to his shop and they are never disappointed. he deals with major brands like hellion, magnaflow, and other big names. he also has just done a car that got a full MMR longblock and MMR900 tranny. he really knows what he is doing. now he would probably not be able to do the porting for you but he could have the porting done for you by somebody like fox lake and he can order and install cams and stuff like that. heck, me and him did a motor swap in my car on a saturday morning in like 4-5 hours. so i would only ever trust keith to do stuff to my car.

Thanks for the info, I have heard of them but didnt know of anyone that ever went there. So you are from Hanover...gotta love all the rice around there. Anytime I drive through there I get idiots trying to race me, I just rev it a little to mess with them lol.

Dude, all around the perkiomen area there are imports with loud pipes and wings. What do you expect though when you go from a skateboard to a 4 cylinder. No one ever wants to run me. I try to provoke them by reving my engine when I drive by the 7-11 where they all hang out,still nothing,.. come on,..I'm the only black mustang driving around with Obsequious1 across my rear window. I give them credit though. We share an interest in cars.

yea, keiths is pretty well known for doing most any kinds of performance cars. and he is constantly having tuners come in to use his dyno to tune cars and stuff like that. so i would definatly consider keith's pit stop to do your work for you. top quality work and a fair price with the character to back up any of the work he does.

I also recommend SGS Automotive. I had my car tuned there and was pretty happy.
