Bought another Mustang

1996 Pacific Green GT, automatic, 88K original miles. Came with a CAI/upper plenum, o/r H, and flows that are dumped. This thing had some ****ing drone to it. I felt so sorry for the girlfriend when she had to drive it back to Abilene. I tried to teach her to drive a manual so she could take the 07 back, but she refused.





Any how, plans are still for a turbo(s), going to stay with the 2 valve. Seeing how it'll be cheaper and make the power that I'm looking for, why spend the extra coin to convert to 4V?

I would like to add a Cobra front bumper, and a cowl hood to it, but at the same time I'd like to leave it stock looking for the sleeper factor.

Already did some changing today.

Took off the spoiler



And the front plate


And removed the cheapo shift light. Bonus interior pic. The interior is the worst part of this car, but it wont take much to fix.

I dig it. The only thing I don't like is the tan interior.

What kind of power are you wanting to get out of it?

Congrats on getting it. It looks pretty good. And I'm glad you dumped the stupid shift light. It really looked

Congrats! Looks great!



But why would an automatic need a shift light?

An auto only needs a shift light when it has a manual valve body. Otherwise it's R. I. C. E. imo.
