Soon as I get some slicks. I don't think it'll go that fast in the 1/4, but then again I may be wrong...

Watch the drive shaft. I seen 2 of them come out this weekend at NMRA in 5.0 GT Mustangs. That is supposed to be the weak link, the 2 peice drive shaft. I think JPC sells a 1 peice aluminum one..

I'll keep my fingers crossed and get one after I put a 3.4 Whipple in it........one of these days. Probably go with the pulleys and tune first for around the 600 RWD mark.

You just don't know how bad I do want one. But 1) it would be like my 03 Mach 1 and never get drove, and 2) 600 to 700 dollar car payment just doesnt sit good with a kid in college..

I'm not doing the research... what is the price difference? I think the better package is the GT.

Seems like all you guys care about is power, so for the extra money it wouldn't be worth it considering the base GT is sub $30k.

If all your comparing is price tags then it may seem that way. However the Boss comes with a revised intake plenum, cams, tune, interior, suspension, brakes and forged internals just to name a few over the GT. Also only the most basic non optioned GT's will come in under $30k.
