Mustang GT?!!!!!

i got a 2003 6 speed and i know with proper launch it can hit 14.4's no problem completely stock. Now, with 18" oz racing superlaggera 3 piece forged rims wraped in mich. pilot sport, frankencar with apxi and cattman y-pipe. With a good launch, what do you think i can cross the quater at?
My goal in this car is to simply beat or keep up with a stock new GT. they run the 60 in 5.5 (most people would run it in a 5.8 because of high torque offline) and capable of running 13's with okay driver.

any input would be awesome

With good driving you could probably get into the 13s with an intake and Y-pipe. Throw in a a full exhaust and a UDP to make it into the 13s for sure.

Being a former mustang owner, I will let you know that most of the ones that will race you will be modded too. Mustangs are a rol of tghe dice, they are either stock and in low 14's or Freakin fast ! Do you have all those mods listed ? Those wheels are wicked...

I have everything in my garage or on it's way to my house, the only thing is in so far is the frankencar, and it's a very nice mod. i live in delaware and it's been snowing alot these days so the rims are just sitting around, once it get a little warmer out i'll starting to bolt on stuff.
i'm glad you like my rims, they are light that's why i choose them, it's 18x8 i was hoping i can get a little wider bu that's it appearently.

i also have some anti sway bar and front brace tower bar coming in within this week, so they will also go on once i get a chance.
what else can i do to this car as far as imporving power without bottle feeding? and about the new GT's they only run 14's stock?

My girlfriend has a new 2002 Mustang GT 5-speed. Its pretty quick. I havent had the Maxima long enough to gauge how fast it is (it only has like 40 or 50 miles, so I havent beat on it yet) or to make a fair comparison though. kloogy, your car looks really nice.
