you apparently fail at reading comprehension, I said it may be an issue for the OP. You know, the guy that started the thread. Noone in this thread is in it to read about how you don't care about it, if the OP does then he does. Please stop reading what you want and read the posts as a whole.

x2, lols. I hated DD'ing the car, now after the suspension is completely overhauled I love it=P I just don't like going to places where parallel parking is required..

1) I'm chinese
2) expensive rims

I don't fail at reading.I'm aware of the OP's topic and I am responding to him. I know what I typed. Quit the childish banter and let the discussion flow, we have the right to our opinion. I didn't ask you to tell me what I can and can't say. There isn't any need for any smart talk.Thanks.

It's my "fault" it is the way it is now, but regardless of what I do to it.. I'd still rather have the advancements in technology the last 10+ years has provided us.

I could make all the changes to the mustang to make it more docile for daily driving but there is only so much you can do to a 14 year old car.

maybe you guys missed it, but why is it going to be a good thing to get the SHO turbo kit? those turbos are the size of little apples.



just look at those tiny little things...

it will prob be expensive to boot to buy the "SHO turbo kit" from Ford. Prob better off waiting for aftermarket kits to be made like everything else.

it will be interesting to see videos to start poping up of these and the GT's and the numbers they can run.

OP, any more info on the car situation?

In your previous post, you were responding to what I said about DD's and the sound of the exhaust. If you were responding to the OP's post you would post something that quoted what the OP posted. I'm not trying to smart talk you since you seem smart enough. Just stated my opinion on the OP's matter and you responded to what I posted so I decided to respond to that. If you don't like it then reply with something more constructive than "I wouldn't care what the car sounded like if it was my DD" comment, or don't reply at all.

There is no banter here as nothing I said was light hearted. It was a direct response to what you posted. Good day to you sir.

Yea no shat.. i dont see any turbos either..

The turbos are not on in that pic.. But they do use smaller turbos so there is no lag. Its the smart thing to do.

The sho turbo kit is oem quality and iiirc should fit the 3.7l with very little modification. Not to mention that since it's oem it can most likely be found cheap.

But this is all speculation until it's tried.

^ since when is anything OEM quality cheap?? lol anytime I go to the Ford dealer it is always twice as much...I couldn't imagine a whole turbo setup, but I could be very wrong.
