I have run as much as 52 psi in the front end of different cars and I think I would go about that high in a mustang.

The yellow M3 is Vic Sias, I co-drove with im in 00 (BSP 240Z, 01 (BSP 240Z), 03 (M3). check out his website
www.siastuning.com

I had a good amount of front camber in my 91, let a few friends take it out. It needed more front camber (poor suspension design), yet you loose more braking. I heard around 3 degrees front camber is about a good compromise. Mine was set at 2.5 and then changed it to almost 4. At 4 you could barely stop it, but my rear brakes need adjusting.

I was there in a little red girlie Miata, again.

As heavy as the Mustang is I would be a little scared to run the tire that high. Talking to a bunch of the Mustang guys when I was running the Cobra, they gave me looks when I told them 44lbs. I was running them to the edge but I was pushing too. You need to slow down a lot entering the corner as not to push. If you do this you will not need the tire presures up that high. That is the hard part. About 3 neg Camber is about right. At least on a modded car. In stock Max is about 1.x. For the higher classes I would say 2.5 and up. Depends on your setup.

Hope this helps..

You could just buy a Z06 and call it done.. hehehe..
