Don't forget to upgrade the intake manifold so your floor doesn't fall out

Whenever a performance shop tells you 2 hours it really means 2 days - all the good performance shops are too busy to work on your car as soon as you drive it in. Also, your car will need to be dynoed to get the best out of a chip - 2 hours no way.

Yeah, you do that.

You have a damn good chance of running lean and frying a piston if you don't run direct port on that mustang with the way the intake manifold is laid out. Maybe you could get away with a 50 shot with no direct port. Also, you're going to have to run a wet kit too, since Split port V6 mustangs have returnless fuel systems. Also, to mount the bottle in the trunk, you have to drop the fuel tank to get access to run bolts into any holes you drill in the bottom of the trunk. It is WAYYYYY more than a 2 hour job. Me and 2 other guys were doing an install on one and it took us 6 hours to get the bottle mounted (in the back seat), solonoids mounted and wired and switches mounted (but not wired). That doesn't include running any of the line for the nitrous or installing the jets (which never got done btw)

yeah, no "nos" man you might blow the welds on the intake, then me and the mad scientist .... n:

if you want something cheap and fast and have the money to blow GO GHETTO and buy some BFGoodrich kdw-2's and put them on the rear wheels, then break them in reallly quick and practice your launches, if you don't have the money for those, sumitomo HTR+'s are what i've used for better than stock traction

[TheStang00]

well its only $100 right, thats probably less than a nitrous kit and def less than a new engine... just save up and get FI or build it N/A, dont go nitrous. unless of course you upgrade from your current set up

the most recent former v6 mustangs w/ 5 speeds run 15's, mid-high normally right out of the box

the gen before than had only 150hp and run 17's and 16's stock, i can't even imagin how slow the auto version was

[Zeiss]

is his auto or manual?

both are manual...i know a guy w/ a 96 auto mustang v6 and its funny how much he believes his car is faster than mine

the GTS celica only comes in manual 6-speed to my knowledge
