So what does a 95 with O/R h-pipe, CAI and no smog or AC put down at the tires???

Umm... and why are the 94/95 pushrod cars in the 96-2004 section?

Thats because they were just coming off the gas crisis. Your average family sedan will smoke most Mustang GTs up until the 2005 models, pretty sad. Buying an NA Mustang like my Notch just reminds me of how much work I really did put into my 98 to make it as fast as it was.

the thing that is saving them now, is that they are light.. a 400 hp fox is almost as fast as a 500hp s197

Wow. For some reason I was thinking they were 185rwhp/260rwtq stock.

If I get this pinging issue figured out this weekend I'll throw it on a dyno next week just for shits and giggles.

What's up Wharf...didn't know you were out in AZ (I just got here from ChicagoLand a couple months back)

the 94 & 95's had that goofy intake elbow (because of the strut tower location) that really held them back...good thing is that there are a few products out there to help - plus it is an old school 5.0 so plenty of other goodies out there

Hey Mystic! Yeah been out here 3 years and ain't ever going back. Welcome to the desert!

I'm building the 95 to be a roadrace car so more power is dead last on the mod list. I just want to run it on the rollers once to make sure it's running right and I had no idea what to expect.

Finally got around to getting to the dyno. Went higher than I thought: 203rwhp/262rwtq. Only mods are BBK O/R H and K&N cold air. Smog pump and AC deleted and only 5 degrees of timing.
