Well if it's for your 01GT, figure maybe 25 to the rear wheels... Those cars were rated at 260 at the crank... (Figure 15% Drivetrain loss) If you're lucky you might have 250 to the rear wheels after all the mods, but remember HP numbers don't mean ****, it's all about how the car is set up, and how fast it gets down the track... Good luck

with full exhaust and intake, you should be a little higher than previous comment. i would guess you to be around 265-270 rwhp

50HP out of a intake and full exhaust? Wish in one hand and **** in the other, and see which one fills up first... Those cars usually put down 220 to the rear wheels bone stock...

well add a couple other mods that will add more horsepower besides ofcoarse a supercharger, as soon as i get my 96 gt paid off i'm going to get a 4,000 loan to get a vortech v2 sq trim one and have it installed should cost around there, and use the 96 stang as collateral, right now i don't have collateral for a loan or i would get it now, i'm just trying to get the mild things that add 10-15 horsepower a pop

ok smarty, he is talking about a full bolt on gt. ie lts, midpipe, catback, intake, tb, plen, underdrives and a tune, which should put him around that number. i have seen a full bolt on with an aggressive tune yield 260's to the tires before. would it make you feel better if i stated 250-260? pending on dyno could be more or less naturally but with all those mods and a good driver mod, the car should touch low 13's and with good rubber and a little suspension work with a nice da could even touch high 12's

full bolt on 2v GT's, with long tubes and a 93 tune, will net over 265rwhp. Without long tubes you're looking at 260rwhp +/-, LT's add approx 15 rwhp... so do the math.

I saw approx 270rwhp IF you have yourself a good 93 Octane tune.
