sup up a v6 that beats any kind of gt everyday....then tell them its a six and watch the look on their face. Everyone can make a v8 fast, but it takes work and dedication for a sixer, plus I hate when the gts or some cobras think they are all bad and your sixer beats them!!

This man sees the light. +10
thank you thank you

From what iv heard, our cars are much more suited to supercharging. Turbos are more expencive and can require alot more maintinance (wow i butchered that spelling). This is the charger iv been wanting fooorever, and hope to get by mid summer of 07: http://www.vmptuning.com/store/index...=112&parent=55 . Its quite pricy, and is above average. it comes with everything you need, but you might need new gears/stage 1 cluth, so maybe somebody who has a little more experience can confirm this. There are cheaper ones out there. But remember about instalation costs...which will vary from place to place.

wow 150, thats crazy. I have a 2003 5 speed and i think the crank horsepower is like 190 or 200. Right now i have dual flowmasters, and cai. Probably getting an underdrive pully for xmas. Right now im working on aethetics more then performance (body kit, subs, interior). But next year its all about beating the gts

stock 98 mustangs have like 150Hp , you can try with a TMA turbo (I don't know how much power will push up,probably around 300Hp )
but a supercharger another way,good one
you need to spend some money on rear end with a supercharger or turbo
