Message	Lets say you didn't want to buy upgraded intercoolers or engine internals or any other expensive upgraded that give minimal gain. Theoretically, you could just get larger injectors, JWT ECU, and upgraded turbos right? So for about $5000 you could probably do better than 11.9 I know to do the full job, with all the recommended parts it would cost a lot more, but I think you could get 11's for fairly cheap. A guy was telling me about an article he read about 5.0 Mustangs. They took an old Mustang 5.0 out of the junkyard with a worn engine, upgraded the fuel system and NOS'd the hell out of it to see what it could do. With just fuel system,lots of NOS, and slicks they ran high 10's. He said they got about 3 10 second timeslips before the engine grenaded.
