Default New member from STL area..Need Help

hey everyone,

Just another mustang lover lol. I'm new to this site and look forward to learning from everyone and meeting some new people. My current mustang is an 03 gt with bolt ons.

My future plans are to sell the 03 and buy a 94 or 95. Unfortunately the county i live in has strict emissions laws which is why i'm going with those years. I want to build a modular motor to throw in there, 4.6 or 5.4 not sure yet. I want a turbo street car that makes around 800 to the ground. I will have the finances to start this project soon which is why I want to start the planning process now. Thanks in advance everyone

welcome

Funny you say that about the emissions...the company I work for is in Overland Park, and I was chatting with a guy I work with that lives is KS last night about the new wheels & tires he just bought for his car (not a mustang). I get asked every year to move back, and I would definitely try and stay on the KS side because of no emissions and not having to run a tag on the front of my car, lol!!....but I'm sure there are benefits to being on the Missouri side.

I think it depends on the city on the IL side by STL....my parents house no emissions...my house i do....guess i know where i am registering my car at since I plan on O/R xpipes.....lol

however i will agree IL is more the f'ed up when it comes to the highways....getting to STL is becoming a real PITA
