Default Full Exhaust and a Tune!

I have installed Kooks Longtubes, Catted H-Pipe, and MagnaPac Catbacks. Today, I received my SCT X3 from Brenspeed and installed the 93 octane tune! Now I own an awsome Blue Streak! Now my nieghbors have something new to wisper about! I did take one of the BBC camara guys down the street for a ride, he wants one of these over the new camara. I am halfway thinking of bringing my car to test and tune Friday night at our local 8th to see how she does. If I can get one of my homies to go, I'll have a camera man!

Experienced drivers told me only place I could improve would be my 60 ft time, other that they a;ll agreed not getting better than i got, my 60 ft time was 2.48 and at best 2.0 to 2.1 would be about it so running under 300 rwhp is about it, the guy in that vid ran 14.0 sort of modded more than me.

stock of the floor should be in the 13s....hell stock 05-09s models could do 13.5 and some 13.4

like i said dont take it wrong but its one of those things i would never to admit to running and even be happy about it. I would want 1 second fast than what you ran with the power you have. I wouldnt be happy until i got it either

Well you know it ain't for pay, it is all in fun, legal, and I will bring this up at next meeting and ask why 7 of our 05 - '10 stangs ran in the high 13's and low 14's today, some of these guy drive them at track all time, we'll get back with you.

reactive answer from a top driver in our club.... not my words


A few more trips, and you should be able to cut that 60 down from 2.5-2.6 to 1.9-2.0
you have to work on your 60 foot times. All it takes is seat time.
A CAI and tun Mustang GT will do 13.1-13.2
A plain stock Mustang GT will be capable of 13.5-13.6
I disgree on low 13's for stock stang

and just researching a little to not feel like I'm totally stupid here, assuming this data is experienced drivers testing.

The six-speed manual, 3.45:1 geared 426 hp Camaro SS was the quickest car of the group by a wide margin, stomping 60 mph in 4.9 seconds and running through the 1/4-mile in 13.0 seconds at 111 mph.

The Mustang GT weighs 3500 pounds. That's about 400 pounds less than either the Camaro SS or Challenger R/T. So the relatively modest horsepower meant our Mustang could still hustle to 0-60 mph in 5.6 seconds and run through the 1/4-mile in 13.9 seconds at 102 mph.

The 420 hp SRT8 manual we tested at the same time in Detroit hit 60 mph in 5.0-seconds flat and ran through the 1/4-mile in 13.3 at 107 mph.

all that said, i take no offense to your comments
