he has the brembo package, has all the fancy suspension bits n' such, I got a base because i'm a poor bitch, mine goes straight plenty fast and thats good enough for me

Red370, any video clips of your Mustang? Your exhaust set up sounds like it would be nice and loud paired with a V8.

i think a full second is a bit much, the fastest 0-60 for the GT is 4.3 and the fastest 1/4 i've seen someone post that isnt a magazine is a 12.6. One thing I will say is this, when the Z's oil gets hot, its performance goes down the shitter, I keep my GT's revs high all over town, and never have I felt less power, I definitely dont miss having oil issues!

Holy crap! Sounds like a freakin' plane at cold start.

So Magnaflow Muffler delete means stock cans replaced with Magnaflow mufflers or resonators?

Thanks for posting so quick

its a loud mother when you get on it, pretty tame at idle. And muffler delete just means that it has no mufflers, all it is is some stainless steel tubing with pretty muffler tips welded on. If it didnt have resonators, my ears would bleed.

The mustang people have come up with an ingeniously complex and technical remedy for the problem of oil heating with these high performance engines that Nissan should look into. Using all the laws of thermodynamics, all the scientific calculations, all the visionary skill it takes to open up bold new horizons......they added 8 quart capacity........BRILLIANT!
