I thought I had this one. At the track, in the staging lane and along comes a Ford Probe, no interior, bright orange, Supra wing, rice pipe, etc. He want to run the coupe for some $$$. I'm broke, so we ran for fun, test and tune style. I smashed him out of the hole and at the 330 I was looking in the rear view when I heard a funny noise, SSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHH, as the 70mm turbo on the probe kicked it to 22psi and he went around me like a GD rocket ship. I was stunned, it was his 8.82 to my 8.81, he got me .15 on the RT but it was all good, I ran faster ET but his 92mph trap speed was hot, he was rolling.

Time for a throttle body and some suspension work along with some decent tires. I was on BALD BFG KDW's with no wear bar left.

Yeah but it took a turbo at 22 psi to do anything with a 99% stock mustang. I think he needs to trade that piece in and get a CAR!!

I have a 97 turbo Probe Gt and they can be quick. My brother gives me hell about owning the Ford ******* child but I like it. I have a 82 Mustang GT as well so it's not all bad.

8.82 at 92mph? eeh Thats alot of trap but you better not have to buy too many parts to outrun that.

Man this thread is old. I actually tune my car now so it has gotten a little faster on the same setup.
