The new Mustang ahs been compared to the M3 and the Boss 302 is an M3 killer. Congrats on one mean machine!

Congrats on your new ride... somewhat of a drastic change but I'm sure you'll adjust Also think that going with a supercharger might be a better approach than a turbo. Look at the options. Supercharger is instant power with no lag and easier to maintain in my opinion. Kenne Bell or Paxton supercharger. My buddy has a paxton on his cobra... it's an animal needless to say. Have fun with your new ride!

Everyone does blowers. I'm going to size the turbo right where it spools up right away. Blowers also KILL gas cruising around normal whereas the turbo will increase mpg.

Nice buy, OP. I love my car, but I've always thought that if anything happened to it (got totaled or something, god forbid) anytime soon, I'd grab myself a current gen Mustang GT. I've been very impressed with those cars. For the price, they just cannot be beaten overall. Incredible power, solid mileage, deceptively decent interior, and I really like the styling on the new Stangs, especially after a nice drop and wheels (basically the same changes I made to my car).

So long story short:

Congrats on the pick up! Is that the track package?

My buddy, that's also on CL, got rid of his IS250 due to an accident, and picked up a Mustang GT like yours (before your mods) except in dark blue. Took me for a spin in it and I was really impressed!

edit: Nice mods!
