current project on the car is a t3/t4 hybrid turbo and x-flow head... and as soon as I get the cash together a quaife 6-speed close ratio tranny.)

here is an old photo of the car from maybe 1998 or so... only one i have hosted at the moment



1990 Black on black leather...

tons of mods... but currently sitting due to blown charger and lack of cash


sorry to burst your bubble brother, but i dont have to like the car, if i dont like it i will say it. and i dont like the anemic performance the supercharged g60 has to offer.... if you dont like mustangs fine, i could care less, all i know is that if you want straightline go and or all around performance nothing beats a older mustang dollar for dollar (psst there is a aftermarket for suspension too ! i bet i could go toe to toe with your in the turns ) if you can get a g60 to dust a 5.0 i could care less, props.. but all i know is that im pretty sure of what im doing and itll be a little harder, hehe.

mass production and the span of 15+ years does wonderfull things to the variations of 1/4 times of these old beaters..

other than that i respect your building a decent ride, but when you say not everyone wants a drag car WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU PUT A TURBO ON IT WITH HEADWORK? obviously you like accelleration correct?

best of luck on the project as well bro, but i wouldnt pay for a g60 powered car ever, just my opinion i think they are overrated. id take any year 1.8 turbo over that powertrain. the supercharged 1.8 is too much money for too little gains..
