Not to knock you or anything, but if you are hitting the 1/4 in 16.87secs (best), you'll need good money to get you into the 14s. An exhaust (muffler/headers) and and intake will get you into the low 16s at best. Any all other available bolt ons (TB, MAS, Wires, Plugs, Pulleys) can get you into the Mid to low 15s. If you want to hit 14.0 at the track you may need to consider getting a NOS bottle and/or engine mods or supercharger.

I am fearful of taking my truck down to the track for fear of embarrasement. I'll probably wait til I have a bottle in the back before I make a trip down.

Ford did produce Ranger SVT's, just not the SVT we think of when associating it with the Mustang.
