That's true, but he can mod the motor and have that hp on tap without destroying anything. It depends on how you drive. If you are always launching it from a light or the track, or if you're always stomping on the gas pedal then yeah, you need drivetrain/suspension mods. BUT, if you only get into boost every once in a while and you don't launch hard, ever, then you should be ok to get the engine upgrades and stay with stock stuff from the firewall back for a while. They will go out on you eventually, but if you drive lik a sane person, it could take a while

I have my stock 4.6 with aroung 400 to the wheels. what all do i need to Be safe and get alot more HP. And what would the price be for this stuff? What stuff do you guys use as far as forged internals?
I was wondering the same thing. After getting the forged internals, how far will 42 lb injectors and a255fuel pumpon stock fuel rails take you?

500 hp, if I'm not mistaken. Even if you could go further, would you want to push it?
