no no way..if anythign it shoudl take away power because u are using the accessory drive..a/c uses gas..well it makes the motor work harder..but thats weird dude..maybe casue the a/c is blowing in ur face u feel liek ur goin faster..

Allright, that's a little different! I'm a newbie here, but from time to time as I was searching for anwers to my GT woes over the internet I would come across posts on Mustang Forums that had just what I was looking for.I understand that there are different member titles, and that the titles are probably tied to how many posts one has made, but what the hell does someone have to do to be a "naked member"? LOL! :D

whats rong you cant go 160mph with2.73 i think you can and i know i did and i think most of you here can to just try dont be scared[:@]

WhiteWindsor 05-15-2008 07:20 PM

RE: MORE POWER?
 
Your engine may be capable of going 200 mph...in a car shaped like a bullet. A foxbody will not allow those speeds, aerodynamics play the major role in not being able to go that fast.I dont think you have enough power to get your car that fast. I'm not knockin ya,just being realistic.Nothing really to do with being scarred, just some folks have better sense;).

YOU WERE NOT GOING 160-170 MPH IN YOUR MUSTANG...PERIOD

droptop302 05-15-2008 07:29 PM

RE: MORE POWER?
 
nice answer fastblack... but you do see fox mustangs doing well over 200 1/4 mile but yes they do have a 1000plus hp thanks for being nice oh by the way read the new post (why not):D

you can go 160 on 2.73's, just with alot more horsepower that you are not making.

you car with stock susp. at 160-170 would be terribly unstable and you would most likely crash.

just try dont be scared?

just try and use grammar properly?

also you ran 13.5 with stock gearing and bolt ons? i guess ill get my waders on, the **** is getting waste high....

Sorry droptop but your not doing 13.5 in a 1/4. Not with your small bolt on list and 2.73's. People with 3.73's struggle with 13.5's with small bolt on's. Lets see a video of that pass;)

not only does he do 13.5s with 2.73s but he traps 112mph! fukin sikkkK!!11

RE: MORE POWER?
 
lol, i had 2.73's with my current set up, once you hit 110, the top starts to catch air, and it it gets a little iffy.

maybe if i had more road, and the top down i would have taken it higher, but its not like it was pulling like crazy like this guy is saying.


id say 130-140mph is the max for stockish andlightly modedstangs

my t-5 blew up because from the factory they are junk, and when you race you break things. you might learn that if you weren't bench racing/making **** up...

Hey droptop refresh my memory, are those verts that much lighter than hatchs and notchs????........................................ ......................Yea thats what I thought, another reason you don't run 13's on a pretty stock setup.
