As usual, the fastest, cheapest way to get that kind of power is nitrous oxide. Can we lock this thread now?

Being a dick is asking a question that was answered about 20 times in the
last month.

Like I said, try to search it first, or read a magazine or something.

OK dick?

Woof, easy there guys, get the testosterone in check. If you dont wanna read the question for the 30th time, dont click on the link.

If I were you, I would go with gears, a short throw shifter, and an exhaust first. The gears and shifter dont add power, but they add driving experience. Then get some subframe connectors, and then go to work on the serious power parts... personally tho, I would blow it

Hey guys. This is what I want to do - get my car up to around 300-350 horsepower. What is the best and cheapest way for me to do this? Thanks!
Are you ralking RWHP or fly wheel? The cheapest, easiest way will be nitrous, after that a supercharger. 2V's take a lot to get to the 300 rwhp mark if you want to stay N/A.

+1 we are all talking about 4.6L mustangs so unless there is a new part or something we are all stuck talking about the same stuff.

As alot of people have said N2O is the cheapest way to get to 300 HP. But I have N20 and my biggest disappointment is that it is not always there. So I would go with normal bolt-ons first or supercharge it.

cheapest way to attain 350hp...vortech supercharger kit for around $3500

with a conservative setup, like maybe 8psi you don't need to strengthen the internals of the engine.
