Lol that little blown 5.8 4v with GIANT heads fits perfect and makes the 4.0 look huge!:jump: PS your garage must be on the moon since your cars are upside down! I sold this little 4v guy it had Comp 106060 cams, ARH long tubes, 4:10's, custom built short runner intake manifold, drag brakes & ton of other mods to make room in my garage for the 4Runner. I still miss it but have always been more of a 4x4 guy!

I'd rather go LSX than anything with a blue oval.
Really though, I don't feel a lack of power from either 4runner that I drive.

T4R and Cobra
Glad to see you didn't ditch your awesome looking T4R while curing the lack of power syndrome.

I've never seen RPF1s on a stang before, I'm digging it!

Thanks & a GOOD EYE!
I had to special order those at the time, great way to cut some serious weight while running a semi wide tire. This was a crazy fun car it had all of the rotating mass cut down to a minimum (including the crank). It made easy work out of a lot of cars that made a lot more power. My wife actually cried when we traded it in as it was her baby! But since her daily is the 4x4 Tacoma she knew it was for our own good lmao! Now our fast car is is a 2014 Honda V6 Accord touring lol! Any way in a few years I will put another Mustang in the garage again since my wife tends to favor them. To be honest I love all sports cars and have zero brand loyalty so I am always happy to have one in the garage to tinker with!

Gorgeous Shelby. A really nice two car stable. I traded a Hemi Ram for my 4 Runner, and had a Porsche 996 Carrera in the not too distant past, so I am an expert on being down hundreds of horsepower!
I like driving the 4Runner. No point in flogging it on the street. That's not what it does well.
That HellCat Chally is also awesome. Nothing says "I win" like a muscle car with 707hp from the factory.

Maybe one of the best wheels on a cost/weight/look basis IMO. Had them on my Subaru. Looks great on the stang!

IDK how i feel about that hellcat, thats alot of HP, but the things a boat and heavy as heck, i think the fastest 0-60 I have seen was a 4.6.
but its about time dodge has tried to get back in the game, because they've been in third for a very long time.
The biggest problem isn't the weight, it's the 275 rear tire. I had ~400whp in my GTO on a 275 and it would not hook in first gear. Not sure wtf they were thinking.

agree, the tires are another problem, i think they went with that size as stock for decent mpg numbers.

I was going to say the same thing. It looks better than I thought it would.
