Ordered a 4c from Mike today. This pushed me over the edge. I don't have headers other than that very similar setup. I just want a solid 11.6-11.7 car so hopefully this does it.

I also don't have headers. Just an offroad X pipe, stock mufflers, Boss manifold, Airaid CAI, E85 with 47# injex, Mike Rousch tune. 5C converter. Best pass so far 11.43 at 119 with a 1.60 60' this year with the 3.15 gear. Stock suspension except for lowering springs and front swaybar removed. It went 11.57 at 118 last year with a 1.59 on 93 gas.

I have not checked it. It's a 'stripper' base model though...cloth manual seats, no shaker audio, etc. 15x8 and 17x7 Racestars at the track. I weigh 200 (was 250lbs last year).

Car weighed 3620lbs without me, I'm ~240.

Mine is a premium with everything but glass roof and shaker 1000.

I'll stop at 11.5s because I don't want a roll bar in the car. Track here is strict. I already have a 1050rwhp corvette that I have issues running so I don't need two cars like that. If the mustang goes consistent mid 11s that would be fine for a daily driver. Then I can focus on getting the vette to go 5s in the 1/8th mile like I want since I can't run a 1/4 with it.

Ya i think the base interior is around 100 less weight. We should be close. Bottom line mikes a great tuner. Circle D makes a great converter and bmr knows how to put it down and make it stick

All I have for now is BMR lowers. Going to see how that works. Next will be some Weld RTS all around.

Nice runs. I hope to get back to the track tomorrow. I installed my 5 C two weeks ago and had to travel for work...it's killing me. I'm hoping for 11.30's.
