Mustang Gt or Probe ZE
Alright my question is should i stay with my current vehicle a 96 mustang gt with some exhaust and intake mods, or sell it and buy a 93-97 probe gt and drop the klze engine into it? My car before the mustang was a 94 probe gt with exhaust and intake and i could swear it would run with if not beat the stang.

I'd say do some more work to your GT..it is the V8 right..?
The probe is a nice car, i'm not familiar with that engine your talking about.. One thing i am sure of though, 4 cylinder engines NEED some kind of forced induction...to actually be really fast.. N/A just doesn't do it if you ask me..sure it will feel fast when you drive it..but if you got a passenger...that's when you'll be like "damn my 200lbs passenger made my car slow"..lol.. I'm a turbo guy, yeah superchargers have no lag..but a turbo is VERY DRAMATIC.. I took a test drive in a stage 1 srt4 and when that baby spooled up in 2nd gear...my head almost came off..tires broke loose for a second also.

The klze engine that i was thinking about putting in a probe is a v6. Probe gt's come with v6's in them that put out 164hp but the klze is the japanese version of the same engine that puts out 200-210hp and revs higher.

Re: Mustang Gt or Probe ZE
You know what it is, stangs are just so much fun.. I've been in ALOT of cars, and honestly..only that srt4 would rival the fun of a mustang...
You'll know what i mean if you got driven in a souped up one...chirping the tires like crazy..lol..can't do donuts though....

Re: Mustang Gt or Probe ZE
Yeah mustangs are a blast to drive but they aren't as fast as i would like, mine probably runs high 14's on a good day a probe ze can run high 13's with only minor mods

Personally I'd take the stang. BIGGER aftermarket with CHEAPER parts. Easy to modify, and realistically, you can make 400hp without needing some ungodly like tuning. The modular's have already been proven to make a reliable 700+ hp. Pushing a v8 to 400hp is not as hard on it as pushing a v6 to 400hp.

cams bigger throttle body bigger injectors intake manifold upgraded igntion system headers exhaust sytem turbo charger super charger Those are just the basics but there's much, MUCH more out there, like under-drive pullies and electronic fans, just to name a couple. A big mod though would be to put in a 3.55 or 3.73 rear end. Add a supercharger to that and you got a low 13 second car.

But I can give you little things that will help you get you on your way to 400hp. I prefer to use power that is already there to begin with, instead of wasting it. There is alot of power to regain from swapping to lighter weight parts. Also, you DON'T need a blower, NO2, Turbo or strip the car to get into the mid to low 13's with the GT. 5.1L stroker Flowbenched, ported & polished heads PI heads your current heads suck You will also need PI intake. Cams. K & N FIPK Accufab throttle body Accufab Intake plenum Hypertech Programmer 24#lbs injectors NGK Spark Plugs Ignition Solutions Plasma Booster Aluminum drive shaft. Aluminum Flywheel. Electric Water Pump. Light weight clutch. Under Drive pulleys Meziere Electric Water Pump JBA Shorty Headers SLP Exhaust Synthetic Gear Oil for the tranny Synthetic Gear Oil for the Rear end Synthetic motor Oil for the engine Riffled drilled axles 2 Piece rotors 3.55's or 3.73's with the Ring back cut to remove excess mass.
