thorne Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 I broke my hand and the subbies shifter is stiffer then the stangs. So I've been driving the stang. Impressions 1. TQ fucking TQ!!@#!@#!@#!@#!@#!@# 2. Noise. Man I love the subbie sounds but that 302 is sexy 3. I get more revs from muscle cars instead or ricers. 4. Everyone who don't know much about cars thinks its "FAST" This is way slower then my car in all respects except for that brief moment off the line before the subbie hits 3k. I've driven 2.5 subbies and always thought that tq was nice. This shits just awesome.. There is no replacement for displacement. That comes to the next question. I would like to make a pass in it at trails. But it does not have a battery tie down. Also is there anythings i should think about doing?

Guest Removed Posted September 6, 2009 Report Share Posted September 6, 2009 bet i take it 13's or bust... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorne Posted September 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2009 In before 15s for the win. Yeah I want a base line number though. This thing can run 10's for less then a 1/4 of what i've already put into my subbie. So here are the for sure mods King Cobra Clutch Adjustable clutch pro 5.0 shifter KN intake H Pipes catless Flowmasters I need new plug wires if I'm taking the stang. ... It would be really cool to have a base number. I'm just not 100% sure the car is running in the shape to make a pass. I took it out last night and launched it and ran out second with out a issue.

OGRE Posted September 7, 2009 Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 nah with 2.73/3.08 gears in a mustang that only makes power to 5K you are decideing do i shift or not at the line. anythign 3.55-4.30 you are into 4th gear before the stripe. 4.10 would be the best gear for you BTW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bam Posted September 7, 2009 Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 4.10 would be the best gear for you BTW +1, more acceleration than 3:73's w/out much if any change in mpg/noticeable revs on hwy. I had 3:73s in a fox and 4:10's in a 00 gt, both were slow but 4:10s were better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
