Again, the beauty of the GT500: slap on a turbo system, go to the strip, run 9s, drive it home.

Performance beauty, yes.  The payment is likely not so beautiful...  Keep your project going.

If it was easy, you wouldn't want to do it and you wouldn't respect it when it was done....

Now get your ass back in the garage and don't post back up here until you have some pics of some wrenches having been turned!!!!

Well, um, a certain motorcycle project needs to be finished up prior to summer....  ;)

The car's probably next winter's snowbound project.

No on the Focus-it'd never handle a built 5.0.
