So am I slightly spoiled since I got a big ol' 5.tree for my first car?We can't get our license in NJ until 17, but we can get our permit at 16 1/2. My first car was an 85 Camaro, 4cyl! Lol, I'd probably be dead if I had a quick car. 2nd car, I was 17 and it was an 85 Z28. That was when I started getting in trouble lol! I did find out that your car isn't faster then the police radio!
Hmmm.....I don't know if I'd call you spoiled, but having an LS anything for your 1st ride is sweet.
Yeah. There are too many V6 mustangs at my school
I think its their 4cyl ecoboost that is making 300hp. Crazy that when i was growing up, a 4cyl was only good for 80hp, haha
Although, in the past few years the Mustang v6's produce 300 horses.
yeah but one is completely straight piped, no cats, 6 speed. Other than that pretty much bone stock and he thinks he can run with my dad's 550hp magnum

PM me more about go fast fun cars. Want to know more about that STISame here in my early 20s. ~140mph through new mexico racing a ferrari in the middle of nowhere. Of course a trooper caught us while going the other way. Trooper crossed the median after us, ferrari took off I found a small exit and an underpass, parked my car, opened the hood, got the manual and a can of oil and waited.
Trooper showed up with hand on the gun. Asked what I was doing and I played dumb saying my car was making a funny noise so I pulled over to look at the oil but didnt know how (showing my manual).
I got a lesson on how to check my oil and was left alone. I dont think my butt unpuckered till I hit colorado.
Ahh memories. Huge turbo, all the fixings with methanol injection on top. And I kept it stock looking for the stealth, not that the wing helped though.
My old 04 STi
Fine, one more edit. My 5.0 V8 Lexus ISF current fast car. No one has a clue what it is and leaves me alone.
My apologies to your thread! LOL
Those Bell Tech shocks are crap and were fully extended with my small drop. The new lower shock mounts Tony gave me were even lower than the ones I had in there so they just wouldn't work.
My goal before summer is over is to run a 10.9 qtr... I don't think it'll be a problem on E85 if I can get this thing to hook. If I can't get faster than an 11.5 or so I'll switch out these 90LB 22" wheels/tires for a lightweight set of 18" wheels with drag radials. It would save me 30-40 lbs of rotating mass at each corner, that should certainly be enough.time to get those times to match that mph
the few times ive had mine at the track ive stiffened the hell out of the front and softened up the back to let it plant better. I have a lot of weight over the front now helping keep the front down and from spinning so much - that is with moving the battery to driver side tray above windshield fluid, 50lb turbo hangs in front of the wheels, 4" intercooler.

Sorry, I've been terrible about updating this thread... I just looked and it doesn't seem like I took any pictures during this last fuel upgrade. There really isn't much to upgrading the pump. Use the factory bucket and gut the thing, saw off or grind down anything on the inside of the bucket to make as much room for the pumps and fuel volume possible. Drill a hold in the top of the bucket with a step drill for an AN bulkhead, use a 90 degree fitting (or two) off the top and a Y fitting if using dual pumps. Wiring is plug and play with a Racetronix hot wire kit (you can also make your own). They make a kit for single and dual pumps that works great. Run -8AN if you plan to use E85 or are making big power. It's a pretty simple install, if your truck is newer you might have a FPCM that controls the OEM pump voltage, you might need to reprogram it if you plan to keep it.
