[QUOTE=EmmettBrown;12370940]is this a serious question? QUOTE]

Sure it is. Going through the stats of both models and the probability that regardless how nice a car is stock, mods will be forthcoming...so price and availability play their part. Aren't both chassis the same on these or did I miss something?

I told myself if I was going to get a mustang, it would be the baddest mustang I could afford.
It is a damn nice ride. Enjoy!

Congrats on an awesome machine. Others are very scared of this car.

I also already ordered a Resonator Eliminator Kit and airaid filter.. Should pick a couple horses but more importantly the supercharger whine that the car is currently missing

Nice car. I came from an Evo and miss the all wheel drive instant power. What are your mod plans?

what mods does it have? it says "bolt on" but you can "bolt on" anything from a bigger supercharger to a nitrous bottle

Thanks!

Well, I do have to get away from my dig racing mentality, but just at cruising speeds I honestly feel like its faster than when my evo was making 700awhp. I know its not obviously, but it doesnt have that linear take off or the pull feeling. It has that hard push feeling like it wants to lift the front tires under hard throttle!


As for mods, I want to keep it simple. No blower probably ever.

1)resonator delete kit (ordered)
2)airaide filter (ordered)
3)LED fogs (ordered)

4) x pipe / h pipe ? not sure which I will get, not really interested in going catless.
5) tune
6) second set of wheels for the rear, and yes some DR's or Slickssss!

I honestly am content with the car as it is, and if I only keep it for a couple years the less I mess, the more I get in return if I sell it.

700-750rwph on slicks should be plenty.
