My Mustang Buildup

i got 24lb injectors on the way, cant remember if i added that or not..

There is A LOT of v6 stangs around here....i added some emblems on my fenders under gt that says " size matters " haha..all the v6 people get the stomach virus face when they see it lolzzzz

yeah i like my v6 as a daily driver, couldn't afford being 16 and paying gas and insurance for a LS1. So when i feel the need for speed i take my dads WS6 on the streets.

Yeah. I have a '98 V6, and the door panels are cheap. But the rest of the car is solid and durable. Just the door panels are cheap and flimsy. Well, mainly the piece that holds the automatic window / lock switches. That's really poorly designed.
But, it's pretty slow, and impossible to get loud. It's a nice car, though. Mine's over 10 years old and I've never had to replace the tranny, or engine or anything. I think I should replace the ECU soon, and the fuel injectors.

I know a guy that did '50's in a '94 V6.

Just a question, why'd you go with 4.10's if you want to go turbo? Even with an automatic, slightly lower (numeric) gears than that would be better

auto fail

headlights fail

tailights fail

everything else is fine. mod on.

oh and a manual swap would have been worth alot more then an upgraded auto tranny fwiw...it would have made you faster and been more reliable...probably the same price too.

i hope your not talking audio loud as an impossibility. do a rear seat delete and put the stuff on the back seat firing up with the trunk sealed from the cab. i bet you could see d*mn close to a 150 with an AQ, or DD 15" on 3k-5K. I had my SPL in mine like that for a while i read a 149.4Db on an AC90. my alero hasn't gotten close yet.

Thanks though,

Mike

well if you know anyone I got a stock one too. but if you wanted the cobra upper and are willing to clean it, I'd get you for about $50 shipped for it.
