I'm slapping together the new set up to tune, but I'm in the middle of moving as well. I revised the heads on the exhuast side for more flow as I up the boost. Most of last years set up is listed in the sticky a the top of the V6 section. 4.2L (forged) with all the 'normal' upgrads needed in a Mustang to make power and put it on the ground.

Way back when I first got into it, NA car made 247hp @ wheels, went N20 (NX), revised intake manifold and after that pushing mid 400s @ wheels. Sold my fox drag car, switched this to a track car instead of a DD, reworked heads and exhaust mixed with M112 was making 15 to 18 rwhp per psi (varied with RPM, dropped off up top). Whipple should allow me to move more air and I'm hoping to gain a little hp per psi as well. No one has ever done this kind of stuff, so I have to play as I go. We do know the stock sixer block is good proven @ well over 750 flyhweel hp thanks the turbo guys.

Hi, third grade called, they want you back.
As for who cares .... your post screams that you do. Wanna run it next? Or will you bail out as well?

By the way, I only run BFG tires. After years of track time, I have found nothing better. It's no secret BFG and Roush have been hand in hand a long time. So when BFG puts the car in the BFG display at shows, it helps to have the name on it for advertising. Someday when you grow up, maybe your Dad and Mom will take you to a race, and you can see what fast cars look like.

Wanna try more or feel dumb enough with just that?

I like BFG for lateral grip. I loved Hoosier slicks for straight line stuff. I ran them on my fox last Summer.

I have an 08 v6 with fog lights(Pony Package)and duals.That does not let you know if it is a V8.Opening the hood is the only sure way!!

that's not true, the fog's on a pony package stang are easily identified as being just that, pony package.
