I was on here for months on end searching and getting info. I bought a car and just realized that I never posted anything about it lol.
After looking for months I finally found a car back in June. 1 owner car, 30k miles on the clock when I got it. Owner was 55 years old and could no longer push the clutch in, kept a handicapped pass in the window.
He had a 2.3 whipple installed, 3.0 upper, bassani mids, 60lb injectors, xipipe and mufflers, mccloud clutch, pro-5.0, accufab single blade, granatelli maf, BAP, 10.5 rears with 315 nittos. Was orginally tuned at Alternative Auto by Lidio. I kept that tune on the chip. Flew out to just outside of Detroit to get the car, paid 22k for it. The old guy traded it in, and I scooped it up as soon as it popped up on autotrader. I talked to the previous owner on the phone and saw all the receipts so I knew everything was legit. After my 12hour drive back to Nebraska I took it to the dyno and it laid down 513/500. The old man said he had it detuned, which was obvious. I had it retuned and made 573/536 on a july afternoon.
Picking up from dealer...
on the way home
Dyno trip after retune(had a buddy make the pulls since I'm a single dad and kids were with me, mom is on a remote to Korea)

Took it to the local 1/8th mile, best I could get out of it was a 7.95 @ 95mph, wheel hopping like holy hell. All I have added is an IRS brace. I plan on putting no money under the hood since it needs no more power, I'll be putting money into making it hook. Either way, Its my 1st mustang(always been a pontiac ls1 guy, 2 trans-ams, ls2 gto) always wanted one so I looked long enough and pulled the trigger.
As it sits today.
