Yeah, and is it a Deluxe or Premium? Have you ever weighed it? What does it run on a hot day?

Bone stock is a loosely used term in all internet forums and bench-racing, in general, and must be taken with a grain of salt. However, your N/A modded GT is certainly one of the quickest examples with such limited bolt-ons, so my hat's off to you.
Yes your engine IS bone stock. Cams, heads, intake manifolds, etc are direct engine mods. A supercharger is not a direct engine mod unless it is a roots type blower that replaces the intake. Your Vortech is simply a pressurized cold ait kit if you think about it. YOu have a stock motor supercharged car, I have a stock motor N/A car. I have been around Mustangs for a long time so I know how loosely the word stock can be thrown around.

Like I said my goal is to go as fast as possible with out touching the engine at all. Like I said my engine is untouched from throttle body to oil pan.

Thanks for the compliment.

Thanks. I removed the spare tire and the back seat this time out. I ran the car back in September with both in the car and it ran 12.42@110 with a 1.74 60 foot on a 65 degree day. The car had stock control arms at the time.

I am embarassed to say I don't know the difference lol It came with 17 in bullitt wheels, alum dash trim, leather seats, shaker 500, my color dash, etc. I guess it is a Premium? It is an 05 Legend Lime with tan interior. I weighed it at Beaver Springs dragway during the summer. Their scale showed 3700 with me in it. It definitely had the back seat and I believe the spare was still in it but I am not 100% sure. Cecil's scale was not open last weekend. I won't run it when it is really hot because what is the point? The worst conditions I ran in this year was at Beaver on a Friday night. Track elevation is 500 feet, no idea what DA was, it was 90 degrees accoring to the track and it went 12.62@108 with a 1.81 60 foot. Beaver is tough to launch the car at since the starting line rolls backward slightly so that is why my 60 foot is off.
