ITS GOING TO BE SO PRETTY

78cobra347's 1989 Ford Mustang

the stock turbo with 15 to 18 psi should get me up around 250 to 300 hp with the la2 computer and 35# injecters

Update april 22 2005 This car has been to the track many times. In 2004 i had the T5 with 3.55 gears and ET streets the best i got was 14.29@98mph.
This spring i put a T3 .63/60 turbo on the car and swapped out the stick tranny and put a C4 in with a 3000 stall.first time out on 235/60/15 radials it ran 13.91@98.The next week i had the ET streets on and NAILED A 1.88 60" INSTEAD OF A 2.3(radials)PULLED A 13.26@100 MPH ON A COLD TRACK I SPUN A LITTLE IN 2ND.
So maybe i might run a 12 sec 1/4 mile with this yet.

That is one sweet fox. I always wanted to do a 2.3t swap in a convertible or coupe as ive owned a 2.3 hatch and my current 5.0L hatch. I bet you surprise the hell out of the guys who think they know mustangs, with that subtle single exhaust pipe and the lx trim. Well done swap with a sweet timeslip to prove it. Is it a street driven too?
