Welcome. As far as putting up photos, you can upload your photos into a photobucket account and then post a link from there into your message.

Welcome to the forum. That is an impressive list of mods. Yes, I am jealous. If you want to list your mods, go to your profile and add them to your signature and they will show up when you post.

For the bling-bling effect, I would highly recommend Carmen's (Redfire427) pulley kit.

Welcome ak427r!

Sounds like you got off into the Roush realm on the right foot.

As to what else? Perhaps a set of fuzzy dice?

Haha I'm 19 be 20 in April. I have had a 02 Corvette Z06, 71 Mach 1 429: 4 Speed, 1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX (bad decision ), and last but not least 2003 Jack Roush Classic. I'm not bragging I'm just saying that if you work hard and find the right people to buy your stuff you can move up the car ladder in a hurry. I started with the 1971 Mach 1 and restored it myself.

Welcome, nice mods list
It won't help your numbers, but a set of 4.10's will definitely wake it up a ton!!!!
As far as your numbers with your setup, I'd expect to see 415-445hp to the rear wheels. and your ET is only as good as the driver Maybe mid 12's????
OH YEAH, WE NEED PICS ALREADY!!!!!
We must be slacking, I haven't seen that said 100 times already

I have the same mods minus the fuel pump and over drive crank, I run 12.2 - 12.3's all day long. My fastest has been 12.09@118. So depending on what type of driver you are, your track experience, weather, etc you should run mid to high 11's. Make sure to get dyno'd to see where your shift points should be if you are manual.

Thats awesome man. I just never been a fan of the new body style mustangs or I would have looked into a new Roush or GT500. I would expect some where around 400-415 with your set up. I made 430 on motor with mine on a little more boost so i'd say that is a good estimate. As for modding be addictive I know what you mean. I built the motor last winter and this winter the Twin Turbo Kit is going on.
