My neighbor three houses down has a new 2002 Stage 3 Roush convertible. Triple black with chrome rims. Very nice, and very fast!The new Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords magazine (issue on the stands right now) did a shoot out between the Stage 3 Roush and the supercharged S281 Saleen. In quarter mile head-to-head race, the Roush edged the Saleen. When they put slicks on the Saleen (yet the Roush still ran with radials), the Saleen beat the Roush. Roush H/P: 360 @ 5250 rpm Torque: 375 @ 3000 rpm 1/4 mile: 12.831 at 107.36 W/Slicks: not tested Saleen H/P: 365 @ 6000 rpm Torque: 400 @ 3000 rpm 1/4 mile: 12.951 at 105.96 W/Slicks: 12.70 Stewart [This message has been edited by Stewart (edited 12-11-2001).]

Have you seen the new Hot Rod issue? March 02 They have tested a Stage III and were very pleased. The one they got was a 2000 model with 28000 miles that has been around the block more than once. All they had to compare it to was there own project car. But interesting article.

The Stage I is a V6. The Stage II is a stock V8. The Stage III is the supercharged bad boy.

Actually, a stage 1 can be a v6 or v8 but is just an appearance package (banner, wing, ground effects, tool box, floor mats, 17" rims and lowering springs on the v6) with an exhaust. Stage 2 can also be a v6 or v8 with it being stage 1 plus a complete suspension system and a cold air intake on the v8. Better brakes are an option on both along with subframe connectors. Stage 3 is the works with the sc 4.6L (there are actually 3 different stage 3's you can get). They actually have a sport package too that is basically stage 1 without the spoiler, rims and lowering springs (the sport kit is like $3-4K). The dealer I have a job offer to be a tech at is a Roush dealer . Oh btw, stage 3's werent produced til 2001 . ------------------ Tim M&M Member #35 1965 Mustang coupe, 200 I6, Holley 2300, Clifford header, true duals w/ 26" Smithys 1988 Mustang GT AOD vert, 15.810 @ 88.871 mph 100% stock w/ no traction 1976 Silverline Comoro 18' trihull ski boat, 188 hp 302 I/O, another toy http://all.at/mustang https://mustangsandmore.com/ubb/I65Stang.html [This message has been edited by I65Stang (edited 02-24-2002).]
