Howdy,
The Stang as you see it now is how it will stay. After a fun 2 1/2 years of modding the exterior, I am finally done with it. I have now been bitten with the "Performance bug" so now my goal will be raising the power of this 3.8L V6 from it's stock power level of 193 at the flywheel (about 165 at the rear wheels) to 400 horse power at the rear wheels (well over 500 to the fly wheel).
**Update** I have since increased the boost from 10 psi to 11.6. I hope to have some new dyno numbers and track times shortly. **Update**
So far I have been pretty successful. I have installed a complete Turbocharger system that has rasied the power to 330 to the rear wheels. Only 70 more to go. Immediately on the list after the turbo kit was some much needed performance rubber. The pictures I have do not have the new tires in them, but they are on now and have made a huge difference. Next on the list will be a higher stall torque converter, I'm thinking about 2,700 to 3,000 rpm stall. Later, I will get ported and polished upper and lower intake manifolds and ported cylinder heads and possibly a cam. Those mods alone should put me well within, if not past, my goal of 400 on a forced induction vehicle.
REMEMBER, IF YOU LIKE IT, NOMINATE IT! THANKS!
