Got your email Dave and I couldn't agree with it more...

 

Well I think I have decided on the non polished version. I like because of the $$$$$ I can save over $1000 over a twin screw and with that money I can buy more mods......LOL It looks like this time next year before the budget will allow unless I get a massive bonus or win the lottery or somthing.....

 

Told good old Dad what happened last night with the car and the crazy driver. kind of got me thinking. Said "what if those guys had guns, the kind of ***** it takes to ride someone that close and mess with them in such a dangerous manner they could be bad people." "Asked me what if they see you 2 weeks down the road its not like your car is everywhere?" "what if that time they pull a gun and decide to pay you back?" Really got me thinking. I mean There are a lot of red, white, black, silver, etc... but not but maybe 2 Grabbers that run around frequently as daily drivers, me being included. So I hope those thugs in the stratus just forget me and are from out of town and have left. I need to get my windows tinted so that I can ignore them. With the windows being bare I am more prone to show my testostorone and yell or make faces rather than look forward. hmm just some food for thought.

Oh and David... that loooks awesome!!! The exact setup I have been looking for as well! I think it sets in there nicely

 

Hey Zesy Chris, what are your plans for the summer? Work? Summer school?

 

Almost!



427HP @ 391 ftlbs

The off road exhaust and slightly different computer calibration adds 12HP to the 427R. The Stage 3's are 415HP

 

Jarrod walk softly and carry a big gun! LOL Time to save for your CCW permit. Mabey you and Jeff could take the class together.

 

Jarrod, your dad is right...you never know what sort of nut job is out there. Tinted windows and some control go a long way on the road these days. You could always get your CCW to make you feel safer I guess. You could always paint your car red for the weekdays and then repaint it grabber for the weekends...?:-)

Hey Chris (427) have you been out and run the 1/4 yet to see what all that power can do???

 

Nope, I only have 160 miles on it so I have a few more break in miles. There's a video out there that shows Dyno run on the 427R and also (3) 1/4 mile passes. The driver sucks and ran 13.40's@ 107 on street tires. With that MPH you could easlily get into the 12.50's or so with slicks and a good driver. The Dyno run showed 356 RWHP.

Your a mid 12 sec car on street tires no doubt

 

yes i will be working. plan on continually going to the gym 4 times a week and hangout, relax do anything that doesn't have schoool involved and no summer school!! i made good grades

 

Times all over the country vary depending on how high above sea level you are as well as temp and other variables. I bet that car can easily do a 12 sec run . Even a trap speed of 107 is good for a 12.7 sec pass. Use this calculator and you can determine where you should be. The calulator says with 427hp at the crank you are capable of doing a 12.0

Yes, I think its a good mid 12sec car with a good outing. Thats plenty for me!!

Roush has also produced 50 Roush "Drag Pak's" Mustangs sold only in Brandon Ford that run 11.70+- Here's an video:

Jarrod, I had no idea you are a twin. I am a twin also. We are identical and are 1 minute apart. Jason is also a Mustang and Roush freak. He has a 1967 big block 390 fastback that you will see at the Shelby Meet

 

The only thing I don't like about the drag pack is that god awful tach and gauge sitting on top of the dash. They could have done something to make it look factory since everything else looks factory.

 

Well I guess the tach on the dash is for it's name sake "drag pack" As only a full on drag car would need the roll cage and 5" monster tach.
