i bought a 96 mustang gt.auto, it has 102k on it. it has 4:10 gears X-pipe 2.5" exhaust, big air filter and no cats. what can i do to get more power without tearing it apart. and anyone has a guess on quarter mile times?


AND... what kind of bolt on's help. UDP's? CAI? those computer progammers? long tubes VS. shorty's and stuff like that

It should run anywhere from mid 14s to low 15s depending on track/elevation/tires/ driving skills...

Auto gt with 4.10s/ o/r x pipe basically....

I would say high 14s...

probably like 14.7-14.9 depending on traction/ conditions

Nothing else. Get the PI cams and PI intake. Best money to power ratio you'll ever see. Other than that, you could run a small shot of nitrous.

I wish my shitt job would let me work anywhere near 38 hours a week.

What is your money going towards?

Are you paying insurance?

How much do you have to pay off on that car?

all of my money goes into my cars. insurance and gas. my current project is a ford probe getting a body kit and non-pop up headlight conversion ect. plus paint. thats mostly done. and now its paying back the 3000 on the mustang. and i have to fight for those hours. i come in on days when others call off and stay late/ come in early. everyone one else who does the same job as me, gets about 20 hours.
