i know its not a sn95 but it has lots of SN parts. I picked up this 91 mustang project cause of the massive potential the car has.

91 fox

2.3 with built head
world class built T5
xs power T3 header
svo 5 bolt flange with 3" stainless down pipe and exhaust
front coilovers, big sway bar with sn95 spindles
99 cobra IRS with built center section 410 gears and 03-04 axles
Rear BC coilover
front mount intercooler
With lots of extra parts

Not sure what I'm going to do with it, finish it ,part it out or sell it.

Being a 2.3T guy, it still looks like it needs a lot. Cool sleeper project, except for that rice muffler.

I'd be leary about the head/pistons. It just looks untouched, if it has stock 91 stuff it may take 5-6psi before it blows itself up. The other thing is the computer, with the CP setup, it still has not been converted to a distributor setup, or possibly a Megasquirt or PIMP. So the tuning aspect is unknown, it may not even take boost yet.

Looks like it has some nice parts on it, I'm sure it came from a 2.3T guy so check over on turboford.org and see if you can find the owner and/or the build thread.

I had always thought a 2.3t fox would be fun. I have driven a few turbo coupes and when you get those heavy pigs up to speed they were pretty fun. You could make a hell of a cone killer out of it, if thats your thing.

thats alright, i could never drive a cougar that looked like somebody threw a can of superglue on it and crashed it into an Autozone accessory aisle.

I'll be watching the progress on this. I'm going to eventually do this to my dd 2.3 coupe. I'm in the tuning stage right now, SCT absolutely sucks for tuning the 2.3 in my coupe. I opened the value file and it has like 6 parameters, the average one has 40 to 50. It means they didn't think it was worth their time to completely develop it. I'm looking into moates and BE right now for a tune file to use with more parameters. A buddy found one for me, and sent it to me, I just need to open nit and start looking around it. Good luck with this..
