I wouldn't put too much weight on hp ratings. They aren't exactly...umm...rock solid. Especially with the 93s...I am fairly sure it is under-rated. (They couldn't have the previous year cars be faster than the new 94s ). As an example, the 93 cobra had the fastest 0-60 time until the 99 cobras.

I have heard the 96-98 cars are a torqueless turd, but I have been in 98gt5sp's car...and ummm...I don't see it .

His best time was 15.6 and he didn't have a run where he didn't mess up in some way. Plus he had no traction, so I think it is more than fair to say that wasn't a fair judge of his car.

Plus, he makes it sound like he ran a 15.9 with his current mods, when all he had was his CAI and exahust (just for clarification).

I have heard that .2 off of 60' = about .4 off the ET. If this holds true, 2.0 60' would have yielded 14.7 runs. Ahhh, but he doesn't listen to me!

Thanks,
