buy a Camaro. jfwy

it would help to know what you are driving,
2.5k is probably not going to do it, unless there are
some of the Rouch tvs units left.

what year is your bud's Mustang?

Buy a Lq9 from the local JY for 1k and put a cam in it. Then all you will have to do is plant the right foot and wave by lol.

Most 5l Mustangs run 15.0-16.0s around here.

throw some nos back at him

Welcome to the forum. Actually it might not be so hard to do. Mod your intake, headers, muffler, nitrous kit, tuning. Should be able to do all for less than $2500 and at least make a respectable showing.

what is your truck? rcsb, ecsb - 2wd or 4wd? what tranny? these things will determine alot. You need some spray on your truck. get a big converter, some gears and 100 shot and see what that does for ya. maybe a 6.0 swap and then some spray. tell us what you have to work with.

Throw on some longtube headers, exhaust and a cam, convertor and a little nitrous and then go see Charlie Wheatley for a custom tune in Katy/Houston area gowheatley.com and you should have no problems with that car. I just sold my 95 mustang, it had full bolt ons, heads, cam, everything. My truck runs mid 14s and couldnt keep up with that car, but for just an intake exhaust mustang, for what you have to spend you should be able to beat it no problem. Or you could just get it tuned for some nitrous and throw a 150 shot on it and should handle that car.
