He must have the M. 555hp would surely dust an SN95 Cobra.

Latest quick street stang that I ran in my 1.5JZ was eaten by bus lengths. The Mustang really isn't worth much with the mileage and the damage history(like a 2003 or something rustang GT all decked out).

Keep what you have. Or go for the grass that turned brown on the other side.
Ah hell. I was thinking the op had a n/a 2j in the car still...seeing as how he already swapped to a 1j and has boost, I retract my previous post

I have to say the trip made me love her more. great cruiser sold and quiet. I do appreciate the info and opinions. They where all great! Anyway my next goal will be 5spd swap to wake her up.

Good choice!! Selling the stange and finding another sc would take too much time. Dont mean to go off topic but wheres better to live Houston or Austin? I hear good things about Austin, was one of the cities I was thinking about moving to later and Phx AZ.

I am from Houston and I love Austin. Thats all you need to know. Austin is the best and Houston is just a big congested city with to many people. I like the small laid back Austin atmosphere.
Oh and I seem to have fixed a boost leak of some sort and now my car fly's. I am actually amazed at how much faster it is. Crazy, I feel like such a noob. I am now running around 13-14 psi and WOW! Amazing speed and acceleration.

side note on stang is 96-98 are lighter cars ..that cobra he was looking at has 32 v heads that are b heads,,,2003-2004 cobra have c heads,,,they can be swap therefore he could run a supercharger off a 03-04 terminator..a lot cheaper than a whole swap motor...1 pulley change he at 420 hp it very easy to make horspower in a stang...I own both sc300 and mustang Im modding both.....
