I've heard all good about them. If they can get that kind of power out of a gt I'd let them tune mine.

You won't make anything even remotely close to 500 (or even 400) whp n/a. Hell, you'll have a hard time breaking 400 flywheelhorsepower in a n/a 2v. Even a all out built race motor in a 2v will only (barely) crack 350 WHP.

500HP is a lot. But if you want to do it right, build it NA without a SC. If you are spending the money to build your long block to handle 9+ pounds of boost. You might as well build it up, and then just go for it. With the forged internals your long block will be good to over 800 hp. Granted you will need to spend money to be able to handle that power, axles, drive shafts, diff., trany. The whole shabang. But even still, 500 HP is right at the border for these engines and transmissions. If you want to do it, you can either push it with a cheap set up and risk your gear, or go safe and get a more expensive set up that will suppor up to way more. Either way, I think that unless you want to go much over 500hp. NA is the way to go.

yeah but those race prepped heads are like 4grand alone i believe, might as well put that 4grand in a good 4v motor, and all the other thousands you'd spend on makinga 2v powerful like that you could get it cheaper out of a N/A 4v. someone on here with a black 96-98 cobra is putting down 412rwhp if i recall, if he can chime in on the price he paid that would be nice

I believe VT blower Cams.... other mild bolt ons..... And a Texas Hot Rods tune.... For the exact list your gonna have to talk to Brian over at THR. Its their shop car. An experiment to see how long that stock block will last under that pressure! lol

What else other than the blower does he have done to the 500 hp gt?

Simply put, the linked car does not have enough done to it to make 500 WHP even on a dynojet (let alone a mustang dyno). They may be a fine shop and tuner, but the dyno is way way off.
There is a guy on Modular Depot who is putting down @ 420rwhp with his 2V, its no longer a4.6 (304 Big Bore) and has race prepped SVO heads but still a N/A 2V...i think he also beat KenB's 1/4 mile N/A 2V record also...next time i'm on there i'll see if i can find the thread
I would like to see any proof of this whatsoever. One things for sure, even if it is remotely possible your talking about a competely wild strip only motor your tearing down after just a few passes, nothing even remotly close to something you can drive on the street.

Here is the guy from MD with over 400rwhp NA 2V,
http://forums.modulardepot.com/membe...est-na-2v.html
he doesn't post much but his car and numbers have been vouched for by some of the more reputable members and he has posted a video of his 10 sec run.
I was reading some of his posts and he said before the Big Bore he was at 330rwhp/tq and then switched and added the SVO heads and intake and very aggressive cams and thats what put him over the 400rwhp mark.
