My 2003 mustang GT with saleen supercharger series IV, slp loudmouth catback exhaust, 2.91" pulley on supercharger, smaller pulley belt using a frabicated pulley that mounts on the water pump side of engine block to keep belt from slipping, pcm program by saleen, 75mm throttle body, 75mm maf air sensor programmed for 30lb injectors, 5 speed manual stick shift, 4.10 gears, I got this car to run 12.9374 in the 1/4 mile.

well what kinda tires you gonna be running and anything done to the suspension??? i mean there are so many different factors that play into this. i mean if you're full bolt-ons with 4.10's and and sticky tires with some suspension done, you could easily be in low 13's...if you are a good driver. bad driver...high 13's.

ummm, ok and what was the original post?
I would say low 13's with a good launch, if that is all that is on the car now.

i mean there is a new edge which is a new car than yours with slicks and not much suspension with close to the same mods list as you will have run 12.1x's recently so i think that if you do suspension work and get some d/r's you will be running high 12's if you can drive.

you should break 12s, if im at low low 13s w. a stock pi motor and your talking cams and lts, it ought to be in the 12.7 range... but i say 13.1-13.5

and for the guy posting about his 12.9 run, id keep that to myself
