Yup..it's the wide ratio kit from motorsport...$500 and cost about a grand to install. i had it...It still sucked and i had 3.73's and 2200 stall converter.
the car went 14.40's on sportsman pro's.
I kinda doubt you can go 13.40's on the motor
But giving you the benefit of the doubt...5-speed is still quicker.
I go 13.20's on motor.
I'm not trying to take anything away from anyones stang....i had a 90 GT w/ an AOD....went through 3 of them in 5 years..never went quicker than 14.40.
I just find it amusing that so many people try to talk everyone out their decision to do the swap. when in reality they probably never drove a T5..or they would switch too.
And to IBstanged...12.12 is pretty fast.
But you would be running easy 11's on a T5.
I go 12.50's on half the nitrous you do.
Another 75 hp would get in the ballpark of 11.80-11.90 and i don't have a $3000 trans.
People have a lot of one-sided opinions....
I have had both and i can tell you 5-speed rules.
