LOL yes yes VT..VT..VT j/k im concerned about my torque converter because the stage 2's call for 2800! for a stall.thats too high for comfy street driving even with 4.10's by my calculations.somebody may differ. stage 1's arent enough for what i want do they make a stage 1.5 LOL

Why wouldn't you think there stage I's would be good. 
There is a guy over on stangnet with over 290 hp with the usual bolt ons,can't remember his torque #'s,and the idle isn't bad either,i have a few stage I sound clips.
I think if you decide to go with cams that are bigger then stage I's from VT or over the 262's from comp cams,then you will need a convertor no matter what

I believe compcams has a stage 1.5 cam its a 268 cam on vtengines.com I cant remember if its for pi(99-04) or npi engine. 1low03gt After you installed the cams did you have to give the car more gas everytime you went from a stand point so you didnt stall or was it pretty much the same? FOr 5spd.

VT Stage I's with dumped exhaust,and with an auto...Sounds pretty good dumped !!And notice with the auto that once in gear,the rpms drop more.
VT Stage I's with full exhaust to tailpipe,and 5 speed...
LOL,i hope i don't get into trouble using other mustangers vids .

THANK YOU!!!!!!! the first one i seen but wasnt buying that it was a stage 1 ive done some research and found unless you plan on going real high rpm's the stage ones are better and will make better mid range torque than the stage 2's Jay you da man
