Just picked up a mustang GT from a guy locally and thought I should make an intro thread. I live in Louisville Kentucky, and am used to imports as my first car I had for 4 years was a 2002 mitsubishi lancer es.

There is just a couple pictures. Will be getting more shortly. Its got quite a bit of power and is built for nitrous or boost (~600whp). Those will not happen for a while as it is quite powerful

Its got mac pro dumps that dump right before the rear tires under the car

I am hoping for 300+ with an intake and a retune and 320+ with TB, plenum, and intake manifold at the wheels.

It's got LT's, a catless X pipe, and mac pro dumps.

It's built for 600 whp, the weak point being the cast crank. I hope to get a supercharger in a couple years or spray nitrous.


I will try to get an exhaust clip sometime next week.
