hey

alright im new here, looking for some advice right now i have a 03 impala ls turbo charged. looking into selling it and picking up a 99 mustang gt and putting a kenne bell 1.7 on it. i wanted to go with the 2.2 but it looks like its going to take quit a bit of upgrading the engine before i can go that far. right now with my impala im making about 330 Fwhp and run high 12's. is it going to be worth it to go with this gt setup i want.

thanks

Well, the kenne bell 1.7 @9 PSI (the max for stock GT engines) will give you over 400 RWHP and over 400 RWTQ. So, you tell me? The 2.2 is only for built engines. Welcome to the forums. If you have any questions about your project you can PM me or post in the 4.6 section. I will be more then happy to help. Have fun!

RE: hey

is there dyno charts saying it will make 400 Rwhp at 9psi i havent seen anything yet i have only seen the blowzilla putting down 600 to the wheels. also my other problem is with my impala 500 more bucks and im in the 11's. but the car wasnt made for it mustang seem to be. also anyone have something similar to what im planning on doing that has track and dyno numbers.

thanks
