Yeah, nice people but the claim that a Proble GT is a 15 sec car! Is it true?

Why they are so fast! It's only 168 HP!

wasn't the probe gt the same engine as the prev generation mustang v6?

from all the posts here, i thought our exhausts were pretty good stock, but headers and intake make the most difference.

i'm actually thinking abuot headers but don't know if i can stand the sound difference.

Proba GT ran like 15.8 or so. It's the american twin to the Mazda mx-6. They weren't quick. My friend had one and I drove it. Than he got a supercharger and yes.. it was quick 14.0's will do that.
