but you said it says 235/60R15 on the tires and in the pic it looks like it has 87-90 gt wheels (TURBINES) so they arent metric.

lol...thats exactly why I wont go into it. Always really rigid opinions. Almost like say PC is better than a MAC. The outcome is never good. But like I said I was just giving my opinion to the topic starter....which is what he asked.

I agree I wouldn't run the Hyper (pieces of garbage) in anything I ever wanted to modify or actualy had to buy pistons for. maybe somebody told you that when they only had hyper pistons to sell you.

Anyhow nice start to a good mustang. Yank all that CFI stuff out as fast as you can and upgrade it or just make a race car out of it. Don't waste your time trying to modify it. The CFI doesn't respond to mods very well you will always have drivability problems with it.
