Thanks guys, current power is 9xx rwhp.
My goal for the build was 1,000+ but my down pipes are holding me back. Trying to figure out a way to fit a 3" dp around the steering shaft and header.

@03machme let me know when y'all go, I don't smoke but I'm always game for beer.

The fox isn't anything special. I bought it off my grandma acouple years back. 1987 fully stock 5.0 w/ 32,000 miles on her. Never leaves my garage.

I just saw that you work at Park Place Lexus. Are you a tech or salesman?

I have a buddy that is the ASE mechanic over in the Park Place body shop at the MB dealership. His name is Patrick.

Usually me and another mustang buddy meet up for lunch (no homo) on Sundays at chipotle or Frankie's off 78. Would definitely be in for a gtg

I'm a lead tech at the Plano store.
Park place is real good about keeping the Mercedes guys and the Lexus guys apart. So I don't know anybody or anything about our Mercedes devision except that the reason Mercedes leaks oil soo bad is because they must have self lubercating gaskets. Lol. (Tech joke)

I'm down as well. But I have no idea where that is. Is it by the monkey pub?

I have not made a successful run at the track yet, keep finding the weak links every time I run (short bock, trans, oil pump, etc.) lol.
Last run I did was when it was supercharged on street tires. Did high 11's at 140mph. Dropped a valve at the end of the track.
