LS2 motor in 2003 mustang... help
#41
That is highly unlikely, but I would be very impressed if it actually happened. The ZR1 should only be putting down about 550 to the wheels(assuming 15% dt loss which is pretty average) It wouldn't make sense for them to underrate it... especially since they gave such an odd number 638. So it would have to pick up 450whp. I don't know how much boost those things are running stock but it would probably have to hit more than 20psi to make 1k rwhp, and I just don't see it happening with a new pulley. It will need a lot more.

Yeah, for a ZR1 to get 1000 crank OR whp it would take serious modifications. Most likely a swap from the Eaton blower to a turbo along with cam, headers, and other supporting mods.

just kinda throwing this idea out there but,..... what about a 4.6L terminator cobra motor with pulley swap/3.4L whipple blower(whatever way u wanna go)...
- or u could just put a 3cyl metro engine in it and own the most unique mustang out there (JK)

I am a new mustang owner and just got a GT Convertable. And I like the car but lets not be stupid. A supercharged camaro running the same amount of boost as a cobra, the camaro will win everytime. I have a 1998 six speed camaro with hooker LTs, Fast 90/90 intake combo, stock cam, and a powerdyne supercharger a 6lbs. I have raced 5 new shelbys and murdered all of them and watched one through the rearview blow up after spraying a 75shot with the supercharger. And my motor is stock with 156,000 miles. I know it will blow sooner or later but right now Im still kicking cobra ***. So don't act like these LS series motors are ****. Hell I even beat the 03-04 cobras without the supercharger and a zex100 shot. I do like my ford though it is a better built car(fit and finish), but when it comes to performance ford has always been behind.
Stock for stock
V6 camaro vs V6 mustang= Camaro wins
v6 s10 vs v6 ranger= S10 wins
z28 vs GT= z28 wins
z28 vs Mach1= z28 wins
z28 vs Supercharged cobra= Cobra wins (finally a Ford win)
z28 6psi vs supercharged cobra 03+= Z28 wins
Mustang with LS2 vs mustang gt= a jacked up win for the Ford/Chevy car
I think its odd how ford aways paired the cobra against the z28 anyway when it should have been paired with the Vette
C5 Vette vs non supercharged cobra or mach1= vette wins
C5 z06 vs supercharged cobra= vette wins
During the 35 years of the production of the Camaro the mustang has only won the match up 3 or 4 times.
I like my mustang, but Chevy owns Ford in performance!!!!
Hell guys, the cobra isn't that bad...take the KB 2.1 and bolt it on to a gt and you will be killing cobras also. I will have mine on and tuned next week. I will let you know how it goes. But I already know that a cammed camaro with supporting mods will eat my *** for lunch on 6psi.

Compare a Z06 to a Cobra. Your an idiot.
Compare a Z06 to a GT500. This is a fair race.
Wanna see how I can dip your idiocy for Ford's favor?
ZR1 vs. Shelby SuperSnake = Ford wins.
Z06 vs. Ford GT = Ford wins.
Z28 vs Terminator = Ford wins.
Chevy Aveo vs. Saleen Extreme = Ford wins.
Enjoy your stay!

I just saw something where they dynoed a new ZR1. just over 500 at the wheels, pretty damn pathetic if you ask me considering it's rated 638. That's some hardcore drivetrain loss, i'd like to know how they rated that engine.
