I have never had my car dynoed so I do not know the exact horsepower, but it ran a 12.6 in the quarter mile, with Nitto 555R drag radials. I would like to know if I am missing any modification to the engine (that is relatively inexpensive $1000 or less)??? I want to up my power. Also this car still needs to be an everyday driver until I graduate which will be May 2003. I should mention that I really would prefer not to run NOS at the present time. When I graduate I was thinking a blower or possibly twin turbo?? What is the consensus about Turbo-Charged Mustangs?? I hardly ever hear of them. Let me know what ya'll think.

I think 12.6 is pretty good for you mods and considering your a convertible. Maybe a switch to 3.73, might give you another tenth or two. I would also look at suspension and weight reduction. Want give you any more power, but will definately help you get what you've already got to the ground. Plus, if your planning a blower ot turbo in the future, you'll want better suspension for then. There are some better cams out there than the E and a switch to a Holley intake would probably be worth a little.
As far a turbo on a mustang
, greatest idea I've ever heard.
