Why does the paper appear to be floating above the hood and why is it fully iluminated when the rest of the image is in shadow. Nice touch adding the reflection of a flash in the headlight lens though.
You know I'm just busting your chops, trying to get you in gravel barefoot in green shorts and red shirt standing on one leg holding that sign in front of the car....

I suggest you look into a new tranny, clutch if manual, driveline and loop,
ujoints, maybe frame connectors?, and you're going to need a cage,
gas shut-off ec. ec. if you plan on running on a legit track. And of course slicks
Good luck and keep us updated on the car's progress.

The car will need none of that stuff but slicks and maybe a loop... everything else should last over 100,000 miles unless I drive it pedal to the metal 100% of the time...

Your car's drivetrain is designed for what, maybe 350hp? Your modified engine will be about 70% over that so you can expect to see parts going bye bye. I believe your warranty will be toast as well. And if you run 10's at any real track, without having the approved safety equipment, you will be done at that track for good.

Ha ha...good luck with that....
475hp to the wheels means roughly 600+ at the crank....which means bye-bye stock stuff or stay really tame on the boost...hope you saved some extra cash for re-builds...ask me how I know....

It is only 10PSI on a very conservative tune that he will run, plus the 4.10 will put some ease on the drive train compared to the 3.31 that is in it right now... I dont see any problem with it and the tuner has done about 30-40 whipple mustangs without a problem, this guy puts troyer to shame...
