Thanks for checking out my Stang. I realize the automatic tranny is a hugh disadvantage in performance. I drove nothing but standards for 5 years and I can certainly tell the difference between my 2.3 automatic vs my older 2.3 manual (which was supposed to have less HP in the '89 model year vs. the 93 I have now) However; after I do the suspension and rear end, I am converting to a 5.0 set up. The tranny will need to be replaced at that momment, and I think I'm leaning towards a performance automatic tranny built with HP and torque in mind. Stock auto trannys suck balls; but with a brand new super sport tranny, I'll blow away most Stangs out there. I plan on spending more on this then any other single component in the upgrade. -I'm thinking around $4k or $5k. I just want an automatic for this car, my car is a daily driver and I get impatient in traffic if I have a stick. -I never want to be unhappy driving my Mustang when It's done. -I'm building the ultimate dream car for myself. -so the automatic stays with the stress-free, ultimate daily driver Mustang in mind. Your car's awesome, the color is definately different. I rarely like "newer" cars; but yours definately stands out above the rest. later, nicole

Hey, thats not bad... is that power rating at the wheels or the flywheel? is the chip and exhaust all you have done? i have one, but all i have done is blow off valve and turbo timer. keep up the good work and message me back!
