Some of us are Roush con's.

How about a lil more about your car(with pics)? I assume it to be a 4.6?

In all honesty, the only thing worth bolting onto our cars for more power is a blower. If you did every-single bolt-on known to man, you might get 300-330 rwhp out of the motor. MIGHT. But put on a blower, and you can get 400 easy, for what will end up being about the same price.

Automagic or M5? Get a Shifter for M5, stall convertor for auto.

In this order. Welcome.

Automatics are occasionaly referred to as "automagics" by the AOD loving world.

And M5 designates manual 5 speed

Is the rock so heavy that you can't push it off??
Never heard of M5?? what about M6? usually it's designating a T-56 in most instances that people use it.

Good looking car. Can't believe the mis-spelled ROUSH though.
