I thought you did a DIY intercooler setup of ebay? Still 420rwhp non-intercooled is pretty nice. What kind of cams are you running? VT?

A basic midpipe/catback/vortech at 8 PSI should make 360+ WHP easy, you don't need anywhere near 12 PSI to do so.
I am making 420 WHP with no intercooler, just full boltons + cams and 9.5-10 PSI right at redline thru the SQ.

BASIC supporting mods? 360 to the wheels with a vortech is runningclose to12psi, which I would NOT run ifI had stock internals. If I had a centri blower, I'd keep it at 7-8psi until I forged the block, then I'd run like 12-14psi. Even then I'd be scared of blowing my motor up haha. I'm just chicken-shyt about busting a rod through the block or something.
But yeah, 360rwhp would keep up with a stock C6, but you'd have a good time walking him. Those LS2's are nasty. Corvettes have a sport tuned suspension and aerodynamics. An equal powered Mustang will not have the advantage over it.

guys would a GT with a vortech and basic supporting mods pushing around 360whp be enough to walk a c6 stock?

You must have cams and/or ported heads if you are running the Vortech in your avatar

Sweet: Now I wish I wouldn't have lost to all those imports last year. I lost to a WRX, Civic, AND a Grand Am. Now I'm blown so **** those guys next year, I wont even waist my time or gas.
In my 2v's defence though, if I had gears I would have won everyone of those races. 2:72 great for gas bad for racing!

Unported SVO heads. They are Gods gift to the SN95s.
