yeah if you ever run up against a turbo 2.3 coupe 5 spd and he is running 18lbs of boost your going to have your hands full!!!



Thought about doing that with my coupe.... that and an intercooler with just a T3/T4 hyrid turbo 13 flat...... not bad for a 2000 dollar car! lol

Yeah you can do some really crazy stuff to the stangs and not have to worry much about reliablity.



And they don't cost too terribly much.



I still love my rotaries.

I think that on the launch the FD would probably win since the wight ...but if on a roll, they should be equal...



I saw a vid of a 1000+ hp Stang...It did 2 WHEELIES going down the strip...ran a 9.68...now that's bad ***
