Good article regarding the S197 as a track car

[SilverMustangGT]

Thanks for posting the review/installation of the MGW shifter. I did the install on my 2008 Mustang GT and didn't see the big difference that everyone was talking about. I installed the Steeda motor mounts a couple of months later and saw a really nice improvement in the shifting.

"It is finally time to take our project car to the track and evaluate all of the components and work we have done up until this point.

The goal of Project Budget 400whp track car is to demonstrate that the 2005-2014 "S197" Mustang is not only a fantastic platform for an inexpensive track car, but that it is arguably the best and least expensive way to have reliable track car with over 400whp."
