    2006 Mustang GT

    Just picked this little number up. Plastic Chevy is gone.

    2006 GT. 54000 miles. Has a Vortech H.O. aftercooled S-trim on it. Stock everything else. 4.10 gears. Auto trans. Magnaflow exhaust. 39lb injectors, unknown fuel pump.

    I dislike the wheels very much and they totally don't fit the car. I have ordered replacements already (big surprise).

    Hit the track today. Was happy with running multiple 12.1s at 116mph...seems pretty good for having not much done to it.

    Have you had a lightning yet?

    You should do that with turbo kit. Please.

        Generally jealous of the stuff you put together, but those seats are hideous.

          Should've just kept the 05 if you really wanted an S197.

          ...though I am a bit curious to see the outcome of this one.

              Plan for this?
              Any particular reason for the switch? i found the C5 I drove a bit loud in the car (wind noise) and the seats not that comfy.

                          Really? Guessing the seals must have been bad (pretty common issue). Maybe the coupes are worse, but mine's very quiet. Even with the windows down and my loud-ass car, I can have a normal conversation at cruising speeds. The seats are by far the worst thing with these cars though. Glad I don't have to deal with those anymore.

                          Sorry to see you leave the C5 family, Kris. Was it sold locally?

                            it's been a few months...

                            Honest question: have you ever bought tabs for the same car (not daily drivers) 2 years in a row?

                              Chrisnuts had a similar one of these with a Saleen S/C on it. It was pimp, I dig these cars a lot.
