nice kill... a 6.0L goat is nothing to mess with.. he must have been a bad driver tho, because it shouldnt have been a complete slaughter, i would have expected it to give you a little better of a run

got to read up more on the new stangs jim...the steeda gt is fast like 12.7 in the 1/4 like that one guy said plus more mods on top of that....its a fast GT

First off, we did not race. They said the Police Chief heard about it and said someone would get fired if they let it happen!!

Oh well!

As far as the Steeda Package goes the newer Steeda Q350 package is what I have. It is not even on the Web Site yet. It's supposed to have 350 HP and around 360 Ft Lbs of Torque. Slightly better than the Q335.

Here is everything I have on it!

Steeda CAI Plus the Steeda HP Custom Tune
90 mm Mass Air
Steeda Charge Motion Plates
Steeda Underdrive Pulleys
Steeda Axle-back
Steeda HP Headers
Ford Racing 4.10
Steeda Front and Rear Sway Bars
Steeda Sport Springs
Steeda Double Bar Strut Tower Brace
Steeda G-Track
Steeda Control Arms
Billet Lower Trailing Arms
18x9.5 Steeda Ultra Light Wheels
275/40/ZR18 Nitto 555's
Brakes and Rotors

I think I am going to go with a Spyder 1 piece drive shaft soon!

Anything else anyone would suggest to ad a little more giddy-up? Besides NOS, Turbo or SC.


They guarantee it has 350HP/360 Ft-Lb Torque. They said a car with the exact mod's i had did a 12.3 1/4 mile.

I am going to take it to their Pompano Beach facility in April and also have it tuned and Dyno'ed with them. They said with the 08 4.6 that it has a little more HP and Torque than the previous couple of years.

Not sure what else!

I think the GTO's are pretty sweet! I may get one for my wife in February! Then I can play with it myself and do some minor mod's to it!


I hope you have a 2 car garage...otherwise you better watch those cameras! haha

I would really hate for that to happen again...

Sounds like a sweet package!!![sm=smiley20.gif]I notice you have a lot of suspension bits N pieces. Hows the handling compared to a stock stang?

The ride is a little stiffer than a Stock GT but it handles so much better. Feels like it is just a lot tighter and more in control. No wheel hop. Plus if it is warm outside it really REALLY grabs when you get on it!!! I have never had a car that threw you back in the seat so hard!!!

Plus the handling package is designed to be used on a road-course. The road-course time trials Steeda went to this past springshowed that a car with the same mod's as mine was only 1 second slower than the Hot C6 Corvette. Much of that was due to the suspension and traction mod's. Obviously in the straight aways the C6 will eat my Pony alive.

But we will see. I will be going down for the Steeda Stampede. Then we will see what the real numbers are for my car.

Get that one piece driveshaft you're thinking about. Awesome mod and will work well with the supercharger you're going to want next .

Put a saleen, whipple or kenne bell on that awesome ride of yours and BYE BYE Mr. C6 Corvette! And most anything else in your neighborhood...
