Another new guy here



hey guys
yep another new guy but I’m not new to mustangs I have owned a few... 87 , 88 GT and now I own a 2000 GT ThAt I’ve done quite a bit to with much more to come as funds allow so I bought the car in stock form with 100k on the engine and with engine issues so the first thing I did was have my speed shop drop a newer low mile engine in from a 2004 GT and since then I have
underdrive pulleys
BBK CAI
24lb inj
SCT X4 programmer
Mcloud street pro clutch (something like that)
steeda quadrant and firewall adj
steeda triax short shifter
3.73 gears
Borla Touring cat back (expensive as hell)
eibach sportline springs
tokico strut/shocks
J&M caster/camber plates
2000 Cobra R reps 18x9.5
Saleen rear spoiler
20% tint

and much more to come

The paint is faded and the last thing I’m gonna do is paint it either the new ford ruby red (which is similar but more vibrant) or redfire... car will be all one color and may even strip the emblems.. not sure yet
and I will be adding Mach sail panels and a cobra front bumper and hood

Also I’ll add that the interior is free of burns tears rips or cracks... it’s clean and it’s parchment and cloth, I want to change to leather seats

leather may be good for a crusier but if you wanna a go fast car you wont slide around as much with the cloth interior lol I like the s197 GT badges too. those mach 1 pieces and cobra bumper will be nice too

I’ve had many different ideas of which way I want to go from here but I am open to suggestions I’d like to be around 400hp, it’s just a street car I don’t plan on dragging it.. if anything I’m a road course type of guy and I like mountain back roads.. I want it to look good run good and sound good, actually it’s not too bad the way it is but I’d like it to be a little meaner

im just an amateur myself and I don't know a whole lot. ive only done intake, tune, & exhaust on my stang. if your cars not tuned that's a good way to wake it up to noticeable changes. nothing too crazy but you can feel a good tune.

oh yea it’s tuned I have the two tunes that come of the SCT programmer plus I have a extra one... it really runs good for what it is... my engine has about 35k on it, I don’t know it all when it comes to mustangs but I have learned a lot about them through reading and trying things and my speed shop has taught me a ton about them
