^^LMFAO!

when bickety and a few others get on they should be able to help, but i think (i dont know much about the STI) with your mods you could hang with a lightly modded one.

Are you serious? From a dig with that AWD the STI should pretty much pwn me from what I've heard.

I have a 93 tune from brenspeed already. You guys are kidding right? Stage 2 STI should be at least 375hp from what I've heard. How's my car going to come even close to beating that from a roll, let alone a dig?[&:]

I'm thinkin your gonna need to swap to a bigger turbo to get 375 to the wheels. Or at the very least buy every bolt on under the sun. Ed should be able to offer the best opinion. think his car is a stage 2

shouldn't take too much for a new 3v mustang to run with an STi like that, I mean it wouldn't be easy bolt ons but a NA 3v should be able to get an STi with some work, no FI needed.

Stock they put down about 230-240 awhp....how can the stage 2 add another 100whp? I'd look into some 4.10s, DRs, and maybe LCAs to help with the launch...and just add some nitrous.[8D]
