Decided On Keepin My Baby! Lets Start Adding Power!!
Hey guys !! After a lot of thinking about changing the auto to a manual or switching to another car... I decided that i should keep the BEAST and really bring out its potential !! So what if it has a cheap plastic interior that Rattles haha IT LOOKS AMAZING , PPL ALWAYS BREAK THEIR NECKS AND ASK A WHOLE LOTTA QUESTIONS AND THE LOOK ON A GUYS FACE WIT A 50K European CAR that just got Smoked--- PRICELESS !!!
![]() ANYWAY AFTER LOOKING AROUND FOR REAL SPECIALIZED SHOPS AROUND MY NYC AREA .... THE BEST ONE THAT I CAME UP WITH IS REALSPEED AUTOMOTIVE -- Realspeed Automotive, Inc. - mustang parts and mustang performance parts THEY ARE ABOUT AN HOUR DRIVE BUT THATS OKAY ,, I THINK ITS WORTH IT!! THEY SELL ALOT PARTS AS WELL , SO BEST THING FOR ME IS TO PURCHASE and INSTALL EVERYTHING FROM THEM... PERFORMANCE PARTS THAT I HAVE NOW--- C&L w. 93 Perf. BAMA TUNE Also have a Ford Racing CatBack but i think im going to replace it !! PARTS I WANT TO INSTALL FULL EXHAUST - HEADERS TO TIPS -- PROVIDE SUGGESTIONS ON SETUP 4.10 GEARS Steeda Pullys Delete plates --?? ANY OTHER POWER ADDERS ?? EXCEPT FOR S/C PLEASE GIVE EXAMPLES OF PARTS FROM THIS SITE ONLY ... WILL THIS GET MY CAR TO MID 12s??????

full exhaust, gears, intake/tune, and pullies with some drag radials should get you in the twelves...i think you could pull a mid twelve...at least a 12.7 or so.

if you can hear the rattles in your interior you also need to upgrade your system, or just keep the volume higher.. lol
I would not recommend getting the S/C either... they really suck, especially the KB.. I have to be so careful every time I depress the gas pedal the keep the tires from spinning it is just no fun to drive.. all that power at low RPM's what the hell was I thinking?

Well he did start a whole thread about traction so at first i wasnt sure.
I actually do have a freind that powered down for that reason, said he was tired of 1st and 2nd being a waste and while it was great to have that much power the car wasnt as fun to play around it. |

not to the point that he got rid of his supercharger but he lost some power with a bigger pulley so forth. He also even considered switching superchargers to a centri. He considered 3.31s. He was serious.

ok if no supercharger then twin turbo
gears are a good start what about a lighter shaft didn't someone just have a real good offer on some shafts that were like 11 pounds lighter |

I'm enjoying my centri! Feels like it's not even on there with normal driving, it's fantastic! Ya know, the power ain't 24/7 unless I slam the pedal!

Just go the easier route and put a blower on it........saves alot of time and money (and headaches lol).............Might not be as fun in the long run, but SOOOO much easier.

I really dont want to put a blower or put nos because i feel like it would put to much stress on the engine and transmission.... i kno alot of guys have it and nothing happens but i really like to let the car loose and i feel like its just gonna be way to much power.. and besides wouldnt u still want headers and all the good stuff even if u do have a BLOWER?? Not to mention it does cost like $5,000..... I HAD A BUDGET OF about 3000 in mind... So which headers should i get from them ... the JBA or BBK with the X pipe and then Which exhaust ?? After all the upgrades ... i will be def considering the torque converter.... MY MAIN GOAL REALLY IS TO GET INTO MID 12s

Mid 12's? 4.10's, CAI, Good Tune,Exhaust, 3200ish stall converter... Done..... But if you can afford to do it, do heads and cams too! Real low 12's and a awesome sound.
![]() Edit: On second thought, if your not going to get heads and cams. You could probably do it on Gears, CAI, Converter and Tune... You probably run that number all day long with this setup. |
