Anyone notice the similar design and build of the front crossmember? P cars are always at the forefront of design, seems from Chevy to Harley, helping out with aluminum prowness.

John: Thanks for sharing. Wow, what a fabulous and clean install!! Jesus. I can't imagine how fast that car is for the money. I didn't see you post any kind of RWHP numbers, did I miss that? Do you know what it puts out? It has to be over 725 BHP + "easy?" Look at the two links below.

At least if you go with the Lingenfelter (if you can get one made) you get a "3 year/ 36,000 mile warranty"

its over 800hp on 93. The cloest i've come to that is the is3 which was 743 on race fuel. It sure is quite a impressive car.

its faster than 99.9% of all heavily modded sports cars and exotics

That's a wild car to say the least!
Looks a bit scary though with the boost pipes under the rest of the car.

I mean for an American car that's very good, lol.

It never ceases to amaze me how people is so surprise of the performance of all these new supercars, what would you expect of a V8 engine that has 7 liters of displacement, that's 2 1/2 times the size of a 951 engine, what about all the other supercars they are 10cyl, 12 cyl , and over 7L of displacement, where is the magic there? The bigger the more power you would expect right? Anybody remenber the times when a F1 1.5L turbo charge engine was producing 750bh per liter? That was impressive. I guess, I am belong to a different generation.

The 944T was a revolutionary car back them almost 20 years ago they were able to pull 100hp per liter, remenber the 968 turbo S , 3l producing 305hp and 369lbs of torque? that ladies was impressive.

I notice that people is obsessed with size, have you seen the people that drive Hummers and those gigantic chevy and ford trucks? the majority of them are small guys.

I don't know, I'd buy an F650. Google it. I think they are cool as hell. Convert it to vegetable oil and tow anything I want. I'm not that small of a guy.

I just checked out http://www.f650pickups.com/indexb.html and all I can say is WOW! Where do I get mine? My old Chevy was have a tough time pulling my 21 ft enclosed car trailer. I think the F650 would do it with no trouble whatsoever.

You street racers are all the same...it's always about ***** size. Right after I buy one of those F650's I'm going to go hunting for Vipers......

Actually when my trailer is loaded up my Z71 Chev has a hard time hitting 60 and when it does the gas mileage goes down to 10 mpg. I bet that F650 can do better than that.

I thought the STS remote turbo setups were at the very rear of the car? Looks to me like it's exhaust driven right at the E-manifolds unless I'm missing something in the pics?

The STS remote set ups for the new '05 '06 GT mustangs have the turbos sitting exactly where the mufflers would go
