Anyone have an idea of what my HP #'s would be?
I own a 1999 mustang GT coupe and I am curious to know what my RWHP is. There is not a dyno here in Pueblo. The only one I am aware of is in Denver and it costs too much to dyno it anyway. I will dyno it when I get it tuned but that probably wont be for awhile. Anyway, The car is an automatic and I have BBK LT headers, BBK o/r x-pipe, STEEDA UD pulleys, BBK 75mm TB, BBK plenum, and a Borla Stinger cat back. The car is pretty fast but I dont know how fast. I am also planning on adding nitrous soon (100-150 shot); for now, until I can afford a supercharger. I would also like to get some aluminum cylinder heads and performance cams down the line, then top it all off with a proper tune. I dont really know too much about cylinder heads or cams so any info on what would be the best ( and most affordable) to go with would also be very appreciated. I would like to be sitting around 400 RWHP +/- when its all said and done.

400 RWHP is within reach with just the blower and boltons, you don't need cams/heads to get there.

No way with a auto he is making more than 240 or so RWHP. No custom tune, not all of the boltons etc.
Please do not tell me there are still people out there that think a boltons only GT will be making 275+ RWHP. It just doesn't happen on a accurate dyno.

2000GT4.6, what are your HP numbers? Also, if I get a 150 shot of nitrous, will my heads and cams be able to handle it well? Thanks for the info, I appreciate the feedback. BTW your car looks good man, especially with the black wing. I would definately go with some black wheels and wade tailligh covers too. Thanks again man.

If you do a 150 shot, do it occassionaly...stick with a 100-125 shot and yes your cams and heads will handle it. It's not the valvetrain, you have to worry about, its the internals.

he is close to full bolt ons. cai and a maf are all he is missing, isn't it? and the tune, I think he could get 240+ with a tune.

I thought you were saying he would make like 260 or something.
