2003 Mustang GT with minor mods, quarter mile w/slicks?

2003mustangGT · 09-13-2007

I have an 03 mustang GT with bassani Cat back exhaust, 410 gear, cold air, Diablo sport with some minor qwerks to that, and a pair of M/T 275/55/15. I was wondering what you guys think my quarter mile time would be, and what should I launch the car at on the slicks and what PSI. I'm gunna go in a coupple weeks to the track. I went last spring with just the exhaust and ran a 14.2 at 96mph.

What rpm you launch at depend how big your ***** are. If you want really hammer it, put aroungd 15 psi in the slicks, heat them up good, drop it at 5000+ rpm and hold on. If it hooks good you should be in the low 13s...

Maybe? Some guys can do it once and some a lot of times. A set of replacement Moser, Strange, or any other stock type 28 spline axels are not that expensive. I think you'll be ok, but if you start to 60' faster than 1.6- 1.7, you probably should spend some money to beef up the rear end.

I'm new at this launching the car on slicks so shud i just dump the clutch and stand on it or is there any technique to doing this? Second gear burnout to right?
