The good thing about a mustang that runs 16's......IT'S NOT A CAVALIER!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm sorry, but i have nothing nice to say about "modifying" a cavalier at this point in time. I had $3500 total including purchase price into my mustang and ran a 13.30....which contradicts everything they said. There are slow mustangs out there (high mileage, poorly tuned), all i did to mine was bolt ons to a 130,000 mile engine.
......that whole thread makes me want to vomit, i'm done, they can drive around in their rattle cans all they want and claim mustangs are slow.
Another thing that tweeks me is that they say mustangs are slow.....how fast were any car during the years they made those, NOT FAST AT ALL, especially frikkin cavaliers. Mustangs were one of the cheapest, fastest cars made during the mid-late 80's early 90's until Chevy got with it.....and not with the cavalier, but with the camaro.

I'm done
