I agree my v6 has as much HP as most of the muscle cars from the 60's through 2000! I can smoke the tires off this sucker. And why is a guy with an 03 v8 mustang even commenting on this subject in this forum?

Erny, yeah that is strange. Maybe too much oil on the K&N filter or something clogging the K&N intake tube. Good luck.

I like my low revving, wheezy boat anchor.
At the time it was an 07 GT or the 07 Boat Anchor + furnace + hot water heater with chimney sleeve + a lot of landscaping product.

I bought my V6 due to wanting more MPG, traveling 110 miles a day to and from work, and having a NICE looking ride. I only added the S&B CAI to gain better MPG over advertised sticker. This CAI did give me 1-2mpg over sticker, depending on wind conditions. Sometimes even better w interstate driving, over the course of 5 days. . Being retired since 2008, I have no idea what my mpg is and don't care, as usually around town driving.
