And now I eat V6 Mustangs for lunch. Not bad for $50 bucks. I'm really enjoying the power and REALLY enjoying the sound.

i can tell you right now that the only way you beat a V6 mustang is if it was an auto pre '99 stang, and you have a manual tranny and know how to drive it well...i'd put money down that my '88 2.3 stang would take you on w/o much trouble...now im not going to start a honda vs ford thing here, i just know that a buddy of mine has a '98 lx civic auto and it didnt stand a chance with me in my 5speed stang, and it is by far not a fast car.

got a quick ? for ya.. what kind of air filter came with that? i bought a K&N cone filter and made a home made cia for my mustang.. the filter was the most expensive part, around $40 i believe.. i ran some 3in pvc pipe from the tb down in the fender wall so it didnt get any hot air from the engine..i got the plans from some guys on stangnet.com . i think i got like 50 hp from it i believe
hint of sarcasm above....
