very nice looking!!! btw where did you buy ur procharger and was it hard to install?
Thanks! I got the ProCharger from RPM Outlet. They've been nothing short of outstanding. They list the kit I got (Stage II w/3-core intercooler @ 9 psi) for $4139, but I got it for $3800 shipped, with a military discount.

It wasn't difficult to install at all. The hardest part was getting the tubing together. There is a certain way to make it go a lot easier, which isn't detailed in the book. If you choose to go with it, let me know and I'll PM my phone number to you.

I'm a pretty good mechanic, and it took me about 10 hours total.

I think he got it at RPM outlet like I did. As for the install.... everyone says it's pretty easy. I just showed my Dad the set up today and asked him if he'd be willing to help. Told him there are a few guys online who did the installation them selves (armycook,flapjack) plus it would save me about $800. He said if I really want to do it he'd help. It's kind of intimidating though
Don't be intimidated.... just follow the directions and you'll do just fine. To date, I have not seen a perfect set of instructions. But these are pretty darn close. Like I mentioned for Backlash, just let me know when you get to the tubing. If you're having problems, I can help you out. It's not that hard, though. If I had someone helping me it would've been A LOT easier to get the tubes to meet up.

Not sure i like the tires. 20s are WAY TOO big INHO the rims are nice though. Lose the 20s dude
Wow man, I really think you need your eyes checked. Those are 17s. They're an upgrade for the GTs, but they're no larger than your normal bullits.

Maybe you should get a set of 14s.... sheesh.

Those rims look sweet! I can't even tell that they are 20's!!! So many people putting 22's, 24's and 26's on these days that they make 20's look like 18's 19's LOL I remember when 20's were the shizzle. If you had 20's you were sellin drugs, LOL Or you had a good job & credit. Thats about 4,5 years ago when Jay-Z dropped "The Dynasty" album LOL HOV LOL
Hahha, that's a riot. You're right, you can't tell they're 20s because they're NOT 20s.

See what you started, WhiteV6er??

LOL there were no Mustangs in the 50's; first Stang was 64 1/2.

P.S. Wheels and rims are the same thing!

backlash 22s would make or turn the muscle car image into a non. As in non muscle if you look at older mustangs from the late 50s-60s-70s you will notice there were NOOO large wheels or rims for that matter. Keep it smaller around 17s or 18s to have the heritage of muscle the stang has. The ghetto wagons with the 20s and 22s are too non for me.

First off, Jay-Z's saying is Hova(Spanish for He,She to make. He's just saying He Made It).

@WhiteV6er

All i have to say is that your are ignorant and times change. The new stang looks pretty damn sexy with a nice pair of 20's on them.
and if you say 'ghetto' one more time i will haunt you in your sleep. I'm willing to bet my left nut you don't even know what ghetto is!!!!!!
