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.

Nice pick up!

Sad to see such a strong N/A car leave, who bought the car?

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

That car looks good in white. Never noticed the rear window spoiler thing before...looks nice the way it's painted.

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
