thanks man. i guess at the end of the day we both wanted the same thing.. 200whp daily driver.. but your car will have much less weight so it will be much faster

how is your install going

Its going slowly so far :D
So far, the parts gathering phase is coming to a close.
Procharger/Saleen suspension kit/Wheels (NefCanucks)/Tires (ZXWSquared's Kuhmos) are all at my house now.
I'll need to get an xcal, a mafia, a new timing belt, and a few misc parts (tune up parts etc) that will be replaced while I'm knee deep into it.
My lower control arm bolts are seized (big surprise), but Ford is going to do the replacement under my extended warranty (even bigger suprise) so I'm on hold till that gets done.
If our gas prices didn't shoot up the way they did this year I would've gone to the stang like you had suggested. That was the plan from last year...things changed.

At least for your 200whp you don't have to scrounge/scavenge for parts, that might offset any weight difference I might have. ;)
