Finally some horses behind the pony

[88PearlGT]

Some of you might know that the GT went into the shop last weekend. I figured instead of surprising y'all with it I'd give you the run down of whats going to be going on. I've got a few more parts at home waiting to be put on, but I really enjoy working on my car myself so I'm going to wait and those when I get home. Heres what the shop is doing...

BBK full-length headers. Nickel plated 1 ¾ tube diameter
Trick Flow EFI Intake manifolds
BBK crossover h-pipe, 2.5 in diameter
Eibach pro-kit plus suspension
Maximum Motorsports Caster/camber plates
Maximum Motorsports Standard sub frame connectors
3.73’s
75mm Throttle body
5-lug conversion kit
Rear disc brake conversion

And for new wheels I went with
17x9� Chrome Bullit wheels w/ sumitomo performance tires up front
17x10.5� deep dish chrome bullits w/ sumitomo performance tires in the rear

Couple things waiting to be put on at home
JLT Cold air intake
Steeda tri-ax short shifter
Kirban performance 8mm spark plug wires
and more......

Made a couple changes here and there as to what I wanted to do, but this is whats going to happen as of right now. This is my first set of mods, so we'll see what the future has in store for her. I wouldn't regret going to Iraq for anything after this car gets done. Without this deployment I could have never afforded this. :mick: Let me know what you think, good or bad. I appreciate any feedback I can get off this site. Or if some of you have done these mods and suggest other mods to go along let me know.

Quite a few mods being done. :mick:
When my pony grows up, I want it to be just like yours. lol

Nice list! are the 10.5's going to be to big for an 88?

Thanks Darren. I'll make sure to post some pics up when they get it done. Should turn out pretty nice.

I talked about it with the guys doing the work. They don't seem to think that it will be a problem, and they're primarily a Ford shop. mustangtuning.com said they would refund them for 17x9's though if they don't work.

Man, with a mod list like that, I'm not so sure I wanna race you in Terre Haute now! :lol: But, that doesn't mean that I don't wanna see this thing in person!! I'll think about givin ya a run down the track.
