Good kills.
If these races ever happen I would like to be invited. I have a real good idea where these races happened and its a very short distance from me. Especially if you get the viper to show up would really like to see that race think it will be close from a dig they have a real hard time hooking up.

I used to love those Typhoons and the Cyclones they can haul with the right setups. Good killes and sweet Steeda man. Race that vette at the track or back road and get some vids of it.

Ever see the red Viper around town with the plate that says something like Tithe1? Thats the one!

I probably won't get the chance to see those guys again until next August when football starts again! Today was the championship (Which my son's team won!). So the season is over.

I will let you know if it ever happens and maybe you can VID it for me!

Congrats to your son. Yes that is Riverview Middle School parking lot. Can't say I have seen that plate but I know theres a old body style viper romping around the area. I can definetely handle being the camera man.

awesome story and good kill. That really sounds like everyone got into it which is cool. Nice to see they blocked off the street.

Hope you get to run the vette. You should give it hell but, I would def. say close race w/the advantage going to the vette.

ORIGINAL: 08Steeda

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!




hey u live in florida, maybe you and i cango for a run sometimes lte me know

Thanks everyone!

It was very crazy! I still can't believe it happened. Wish I had more warning, I would have gotten soemone to video it for the MF!!! Oh well, maybe next time.

I actually live in Michigan but I will be in Florida this spring. I am buying a trailer and will be bringing my Steeda down! So maybe if there are any Mustang events or a MF cruise I can meet up!
