up intill 04 they run somewhere around 14.0 flat stock some in the high 13 with a 6 speed and good driver.

Despite of the size of the newer ones they run high 13's

But of course read out of magazines and I always question the authors ability to drive so some may run mid 13 or others mid 14 it just really matter on the drivers ability.

It depends on what year GT you are talking about and what mods are on the car.A tipical 5.0 with a automatic will run mid to high 15s,the same year GT with a 5sp might run mid to high 14s,add headers and a cam and that car runs low 13s.

Blue,

Do some long tubes, stall converter, gut your cats, 3 inch muffler, jump up to the 3.73's, 3.90's... stuff like that. better tune. extend shift.

200-2004 GT's run around 14 stock. the 6 speed is in the cobra which are running mid to high 12's stock. the 96-98 gt's run high 14 low 15's. the brand new ones are suppose to be in the mid to low 13's. the worst part about the mustang is their gearing is **** in the gt's. running anywhere from 2.73-3.23 stock. biggest mod these guys do is switch to 4.10's and theiy drop .5 seconds off their et.
