Sorry they are so big but atleats they can be read clearly. Also how do you post more than one pic at a time, sorry I'm a newbie to this.
Goodness, that torque curve looks depressing
Hope to see a pair of long tubes and mid-pipe really wake this car up on the top end. [/b][/quote]
Looks ok to me Most Japanese cars have torque curves that look like the hp curve on the mustang. An S2000 leaves the line with about 40 ftlbs of torque. The stang has a big fatty curve throughout the range. Considering that most imports have no chance unless they are under ideal circumstances like a 5000+ rpm launch, that incredible peak area at 3000 says if you want to go, you dont have to have a 'proceedure' to make the car go, you press the pedal down.

Cool

Probably the most detailed and encouraging review is in the December 2004 issue of Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords pages 56 - 66. Ten pages are a little bit much for me to retype on this forum, but the author of the article asks the question on page 62, " How does the most technologically advanced Mustang in history drive?" Let's just say you should get ready to contact your loan officer at the bank because it surpasses all of our expectations.

This was a very good review, mustangs enthusiats should spends the money for this issue of Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords it is well worth the read.
