Is the 4.6 260hp underrated?
Does it really make 270 hp instead of the 260?

I've never heard anything that would make me think it is underrated. I think the 260 is acurate.

The GT isn't underrated. The Bullitt is.

I disagree. I think the 385-390hp is accurate. I mean I could be wrong but I really disagree.

when i had mine dynoed, we did the math for power lost in my trans and ended up with my car making 259.5HP at the flywheel. so id say its pretty accurate.
