    Sounds really good! Now I am second guessing the ProCharger I an installing. Under the hood looks amazing, no one would ever guess by doing a quick look especially at night. Is Janet going to win a few buck with this beast? =)

    So far I am happy with the cars performance. It starts to spool alot quicker than I expected, starts at 2500rpm full boost by 2800rpm. I would guess it might be making 410-430RWHP now with 8psi and no intercooler. I plan on building an a/w cooler this week then turn up the boost till I see 480-500RWHP on the dyno. The car idles good and seems good wot, still need to tweak the part throttle drivability. I may need a chip to get it good enough for her. The exhaust consist of 3 1/2" downpipe connected to a modified 2 1/2" bbk long tube h-pipe, stock 2 1/4" flowtubes into 2 1/2" magnaflows and stock over-axle pipes with 3" stainless tips.
    Heres a couple pics of the car, she just had a cheap macco paint job done about 2 months ago. Later Troy

    Here are some better pictures of the outside. I need to swap the rear gears with my red car, these 3.73's are to much with a 5 speed, the other car has 3.27's and a glide with 30" tall M/T DR's. I wonder how long the T5 will hold up? This car is on 275/40-17 Nitto drag radials.

    I like it!

    As far as the T5, it's probably on borrowed time as it is. But I bet traction for that car is non-existent so that should help it live a little longer. What's her plans for it, just a street car or is she going to race it? If she breaks it, I recommend picking up a good used old school TKO if she wants to keep it a stick. Keep us updated, gives me inspiration for when I eventually ditch the Vortech and step up to a turbo kit. Which might happen this winter..

    The real reason for building this car is to show some advertisment for my business (Extreme Performance and Auto Repair). I already have my red car as the race/street car and now I have a full street driver with A/C and all other stock acc. I hope that with this and my red car this will bring alot more performance orriented work to my shop, instead of these regular water pump, air cond., and other bs type work. Time will only tell. later Troy

    Well i had it running pretty good with just tuning the Abaco DBX 85 maf but it crapped out, waitng for them to send me a new one. I dont think it will need a chip unless I cant get the MPG back up. Anyone know how much the whole Quarter Horse set up cost?? Also how did you like it?(QH)

    Moates.net . I cannot tell you how I like it because I am saving to get one. Also EECtuning.org . There are plenty of people on there that use the QH and Clint frequents the site. He writes the software called Binary Editor. I have heard way more good than bad. The biggest feature most people like is that it is a good bit faster than the tweecer.

    Giving your secretary a turbo mustang to commute is like giving her a 101+ justifiable reasons for always being late to work or never showing up at all.

    Nice build. ;)
