okay so i want to do something with the stang but can't decide....here are my options:

exterior: gt hood scoop, new front bumper, or save up for some nice wheels
interior: n/a
engine: n/a
suspension: lowering kit
drivetrain: go with new gears? (it's an auto)

money not an issue here.

Wheels and a suspension upgrade.
Then do a 99/01 Cobra front and a Steeda wing to round of the look.


But that's just me.

Rims for sure if you have the money. Lower it while your at it. Then i would do 4.10s and truetrac in the rear.

So I got bored today, first day of spring break haha. I cleaned up the mustang and I wanted to take some pictures before the termi bumper goes on this week (finally). I thought it looked ok with the old stock rims, however new rims really do change the whole look of the car. Looks much better now. Anyway, heres some recent pics for you guys. Nothing crazy, I don't have a nice camera, so I used my iphone. The last two are my favorites. Enjoy!

Lookin good... I just took my car out and tested out the dynolicious app on my touch. Apparently my car gains 50hp between shifts. peak of 230hp(2-3) and an average of 180hp. 1/4 time was 16.5 @ 152km/h and 0-100 was 9secs.

Not too bad but I really want to get my car dyno'd and actually take it to the track.

Thanks guys.

I like the way you think Fink. If I get some extra money I'm going to throw mine on the dyno after the longtubes just to see what numbers I'm at and see the a/f. I figure because of the auto, with my mods, I should be in 175wrhp ballpark no? I will be going to the track in the spring no doubt as soon as it opens.
