The 93+s had hyperetectic pistons which are not quit as strong as the forged pistons in the earlier models. If the 88 is a Ca car, then its an MAF car, which is more easily upgraded, but a hair slower in stock form. The SD cars are faster in stock form, but for anything above bolt-ons you'll need to change over to MAF. There's a ton of threads on this already.

They are two different things.

You don't really see that anymore because there are so many great parts available and no one who's interested in speed keeps their Mustang stock for very long. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>89saleen</b> <br /><small>Member # 3083</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2005,0,26,21,28,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> My experience has been that the fastest years from factory have been the 1988 and 1989 mass air cars.
