1. Cat-back and X-pipe together.
2. Cat-back and X-pipe.
3. 1996, cat-back and H-pipe (soon to be installed).

I also have a 1985 GT I'm rebuilding the engine and transmission for right now. The only other mod on the car is Flowmaster mufflers.

1. my first mod was to remove the air silencer in my baby...for what i think was a whopping 1 horsepower gain
2. the most impactful noticable mod i did was the catless xipipe just because my car screams now
3. 1992 GT with heavy duty clutch, radiator, underdrive pulleys, catless xpipe , steeda tri ax and some shorty headers headers i always seem to overlook something...hmmm oh well

Jesus, 4.56 in a fox?
You ARE nuts

But you've got an auto...

If only I had your 60's
that's what .6 for me in the 1/4

Best i can get is a 2.0

I'm only hitting 6,200 rpm in high gear at the finish of the 1/4 mile with the short 26" tire. Think I will try a set of 28" x 10.5" slicks next time I feel like buying some new ones.
I keep telling you to get some slicks if you expect to get below 2.0 in the 60' times, but you just won't listen! LOL
