Depending on how you drive i would say 13.80-14.30 range at about 94-98 mph.

Depending on your future plans maybe some 3.73/4.10 gears, a shifter, and maybe some sticky tires

A supercharger would work very well [Wink]

is a 75mm throttle body & plenum to much air flow for a stock mustang???

Does a mass air give you good HP increase? I'm thinking of getting a PRO-M 75mm, or should I get a 80mm? or would that be too much air for a stock mustang.

Up grades: bbk pullys, bbk X-pipe offroad, and bbk cold air

Also saving up for a 150 wet kit & 3:73 gears

I wouldn't recommend really recommend a aftermarket MAF...They do add hp, but the chances of idle problems and tunning woes are sometimes not worth it (just from my experience)...

If you do go with a C&L 80mm with a C&L plenum and 75mm TB....75mm does sound big, but those 99+ 2v's seem to like it that way...

.........Yeah, get those 3.73's and a bottle warmer... [Wink]
