Default What can I expect?
I'm knew, new to mustangs as well. I just picked up an 86gt, got it for dirt cheap(600bucks) and it runs and drives great! I have a question on what I might be able to expect out of my set up..
4.11gears
BBK Long tube headers with H-pipe(no cats)
BBK CAI
BBK Pulley kit
I know it not to much, but hopefully with the minor mods I should have a decent pass??? Any help would be great!! thanks alot everyone!

you should look into shorty headers. if your hp rating isn't around 350+ then you'd actually loose HP and low end torque
