Yep Atco. I got the number I was shooting for so I'll hit it again in the spring once I have all the safety parts welded on.

Thanks. I'll always miss the neon. This car was built to go fast in a str8 line. Blue could do that plus turn or stop on a dime.

I have a multi bank chip with a nitrous and NA tune loaded into it, you should try giving that a try. It's nice to just flip a switch and know that you are safe either way

A place in town called the mustang shop, he used a sct 4-bank chip, you can load 4 different ones into it if you want. It works great with my car
