CAI or a cat back
on a v6 mustang, switching form the stock 2.73 to 3.73 gears, it is a FULL SECOND!


-with gears(3.73) alone in a stock auto gt, expect at the slowest, 14.3-14.5...thats gear only


cai
exhaust
gears...maybe 14 flat...easy!

oh yea a good converter is worth close to .5 -.8 tenths
gears are good for .2 - .5

but gears can also hurt you to, same as to large of a stall

The Sn95s are so slow cause they're heavy and under powered.

I have clocked 0 to 90 mph in 10.2 secs on a flat road. That's fully loaded, plus a 40 lb subwoofer box in the trunk and 3.08 gears. I don't think that is too bad for a daily runner. Just add some boost and open the exhaust and it takes care of any weight issues. And I think it's much cooler to take something people think is slower and surprise them with it.
