Default New (to me) ride

Just bought a 2003 Mustang GT.

Some particulars:
5-speed, flowcrappers, Interior upgrade pkg, leather.

Here's a quick cell phone pic. I'll get better ones, once I can get her 3 stepped.

Good for you. Half off any speeding ticket representation before the new year.

It is slow as dog balls. Must have a 3.08 rear gear. But there is a lack of drone from what I have experienced.

Happy modding shaun.

I got your knob in my hand So I will keep it in my blazer for ya.

Thanks, Snake. lol

I looked it up, and the car has 3.27s-still slow as dog ballz. Not too bad over 4k RPMs, though. I think it would be very happy with 3.73s, maybe 4.10s. Engine is unmolested, too. Doesn't even sound like the intake silencer is gone.

Other mods will likely include:
Tri-Ax, CAI, underdrives, full exhaust (thinking Pypes), Mach 1 grille delete and chin spoiler, Steeda wing, maybe a supercharger or 125 shot (have an extended warranty to keep happy), and remove the pin stripe. Aside from some much needed (eh, Hal?) sound system work, I can't think of anything else off the top of my head.

Speaking of sound system stuff, anyone have a set of dome tweets they would like to trade for a pair of 3.5" (i think) Audiopipe tweets? They won't fit behing the a-pillar grilles, so I need smaller ones. May be looking to swap my 12s, as well. Just have to see if the box will fit in the trunk. Don't worry, moderators, I will start another thread, if that is the case.

Cool

Congratulations Shaun on your new to you ride ! Heluva lot better than that '92 Vert I crushed ... or RoadPig #2 ...

Resistance to modding is futile ... just surrender !

Agreed, Brandon, the car is slow; but at least it's not green. Thanks, though.
