My Car Finally Finished (Took a very long time with all the rusted bolts and s***, ended up taking us from 5 to 10pm on thursday night and from noon to about 5pm the next day, we had to run to autozone at least 5 times as well to by different parts like sockets, ball joint splitter, etc...it was a nightmare)

Man your car looks 5x better! Awesome job!

There is no way he made 380 without some sort of interal work. The highest I have seen with is 330 with full bolt ons, a tune and a short runner intake.

yeah well im not completely sure with everything hes got done to it...i asked him but wasnt really paying attention when he listed everything out for me lol...ohh and i forgot he has a tune also and is only runnin 93 octane cause thats what his engine is set up for. apparently there used to be a supercharger on it and he had the computer set up for it but when he took it off he didnt change the settings...its gettin about 8 miles to the gallon lol but its fast as f***. he just bought new nitto 315's too. we had to go to autozone alot when we were workin on my car and we went in his car everytime he could get to about 120 before the end of the on ramp for the expressway its badass lol

That's crazy 380hp n/a, there's a local 97 Cobra with 305rwhp he has pretty much the same stuff you listed.
