Default PI swap question

Let's say you do PI swap on 04 GT mustang. Does the PI GT engine resemble 01 cobra engine then or are there differences between the two motors still?

If you stick with 8lbs of boost you should be fine (from what I hear). That's actually what I'll be doing on mine.

I ran that setup for about a year (PI swap+S/C) probably should get a meth kit if you want to run a fair amount of timing

You know what I say? Screw that! You're going to spend, what, around a grand on the PI swap? You could pay a good amount on some Stage 2 cams with that price and you'll see the same HP gains without the added worry of compression. That's what I'm doing. I'm supercharging my 97 GT and then later I will P/P my heads and put some blower cams on there. It costs more, but I can safely run whatever amount of boost my internals can take because my compression is VERY blower friendly
