LOL I wasnt gonna do alot of things when I first bought this car. Nope never not gonna put on an sc, nope never, dont need gears, hell since its under warranty I wasnt gonna do a tune either LOL. You cant keep it stock its just plain nature that you will mod it now the only part you need to decide is to what extent you want to mod. BTW my mod list gets bigger the more I own it

Thats stock with a professional driver...and manual...

I hate to burst your bubble...but i HIGHLY doubt that you'll touch 13.6...
If you can, thats awesome, but i'm being realistic...

I agree......especially with the 3.31....i dont think you have a chance to get 13.5

my last quarter-mile discussion over in street/strip almost got me tossed off MF so I'm gonna sit the rest of this one out as far as that goes...still say you WILL mod, we all do it...I myself remember driving the car home and saying "it's perfect...and I'm gonna keep it all FORD!" yeah, right...
