Default Performance packages with options.

This is the place that I am working with now that the "new" has worn off my mustang and I want to add some more punch. Option E+F=80+ horses at the wheel.

These guys are some really cool laid back Texas folks too.

definetly will perform much better... the exhaust will make the car roar... thats the same exhaust (besides axleback) that i plan on doing to my car in about two months. 80 rwhp is questionable... i can believe it and i cant... ive heard people who have done just as much maybe a little less and are still at the 310 to 330 range for rwhp... it will definetly make the car much faster!!!

do you know if i can order parts from the place and have another place install it for me or is that just an advertisement for how much they will sell and put on parts for?

no they just ship the parts. not a shop.

but they do have a tech line and people that know whats up (they have given me a lot of advice). they love mustangs too, but they carry parts for all types of vehicles. I think I was lucky to find them. Their offices are right by my house in Southwest Houston.

you cant just add them together....those gains are singular. like if you do option f you gain _____. now if you do option e you gain ____. if you do both you dont gain ____+____ you gain ehhh probably about all of e and 1/4 to half of F. RPM's numbers are exagerated ( WOW I CANT SPELL THAT WORD!) anyway, but you will probably gain 40ish to the wheels total maybe a bit more.

I bet it would be more than 40. Actually, I really would like to make that bet if you are intrested.lol.

A complete exhaust is worth 25 alone. Plus c&l cai and tune is worth 20 h.p. so there you go.

haha...wow an exhaust worth 25 alone.....not even close.

catless x pipe is worth 7-10
axle back = none (1-2)

headers would pick up some also, but that is not part of the deal

CAI and tune from them will not pick up 20, maybe 15

CAI and tune from Brenspeed or B ama will pick up 25-28 though.

Yeah when I put headers on my C-code 66 coupe it was like I fed it crack. The 289 really came to life.

But then again it seems like we did alot of mods on it all at once so it was hard to tell which part was doing what. I do remember taking that cast iron intake manifold off and putting on the edelbrock and demon 4- barrell.Man that was a good day.
