Well the era of SVT for me is done. After enjoying the car for 7 years and laying the smack down on many un-suspecting cars while at the track and building the dream 3L I wanted I had to let it go. The sum of all the little Ford quality issues finally pushed me over the edge. Strangely enough none of the problems I ever had were modification related or a result of the modifications I made.
Here are some of the last pics of my SVT
And this is what I replaced it with. Strangley it does not feel much faster than my SVT but atleast it hooks up. This car will be a "mod free" car for some time with the exception of a turbo timer for the longevity of the turbo and perhaps a harness bar to permit the use of a 4pt harness for the track
It was fun while it lasted but I think the SVT was my last domestic for a while.
Also keep you eyes peeled for a mega For Sale posting of the plethora of parts I have remainin both stock and performance.
As I told you before nice pick up. I will be contacting you I have a few parts I would like to buy off of you when I get the funds. I need more go for my SVT
Sweet ride, and the Ford quality issues were the same reason I got rid of my SVT. Make sure to check out www.iwsti.com. And yes, your new car is definately faster than your SVT was.

I can't say for sure. From a stop, yes, but from a roll I think I would be close. My SVT pulled like a MOFO on the top end once I had all the bugs worked out. I'll never know for sure though since I never ran it down the 1/4 mile.
Nice pickup, but get rid of that sticker/badge in the upper left hand corner, it will be a great mod to start off with

It was gone 5min after the picture was taken. I was a little pissed when I saw it but I have some stuff that made short work of the adhesive
