OK... WOW... Where to start... Ok.. This turbo mustang will run from SOME cammed ZO6s and from STOCK zr1s... Come on guys.. To say it wont is very unrealistic. The ZR1 puts 590 RWHP at best to the wheels while this guy is over 700... Ill give it to the Twin turbo mustang.

There is NO NEED in going 4v... 2v heads have crossed over 1000 rwhp... you can make power with the 2v heads. He is already making great power as is... If the OP wants more power... up the boost... Simple. As for the TF heads.. If you want better, and i mean BETTER, head flow just wait until they release their F/I (forced Induction) version of their heads called the "Type R". Then go from there.

Your not going to get 17 inch slicks.. Your thinking of drag radials. That is what you will need if you want any and i mean ANY form of traction on the car. The car seems flawless internally. I would just change the exterior as others have mentioned.

How much power are you looking for OP?

Worked TF heads can flow pretty well. Just finished a project with a ported set, with better valves for a turbo and custom cams, with a little 76mm and the dyno figures are fairly close to unported C heads. They did fall off more on the upper end than the C heads though. I was glad to get some good results from those heads. I sure fingered the hell outta them at SEMA last year!........and some more two weeks after SEMA when we got the first pair in.

summit deals with those too...

That would be your size if you would go with some cobra wheels. Now i would go with a 10.5" rear cobra wheel for that size tire. If you are looking for slicks for 15" wheels, just go into tires, select Mickey Thompson brand and look for 15" bias ply tires. If you are looking for them for the current wheels on it, they look like they are 15x8's...so look for a 10" wide tire. If they are 15x10's look for a 12" wide tire.

That's what I wanted to hear ;P One moment I was like "dammit، I'm gonna be raped by a 600rwhp ricer or a 500rwhp Vette، what the hell I was thinking; I'm keeping my Vette"
I appreciate the advice but I'm on a hurry، I'm getting the TF heads BUT I hate what that Mustang looks like.. Specially the wheels!! I need some 17 wheels plus some 17 tires that could hook up that amount of power.. One more thing، I am looking for over 900rwhp forgivve my grammer I'm writing this with my phone.

You can get the cobra r heads from MMR as part of their 4v longblocks or through them through their products section. And as stated, they flow like 294 intake and whatever someone else said the exhaust flow is(240 something i think i remember). They are $3k, but thats $500 more than hand ported TFS heads and they flow more). So they can be had or else i dont think that they would advertise them new on MMR's website. And then you can get them ported for $2300...which is also pretty salty, but when going all out for power, you gotta spend the coin.

I don't think that slicks tires are daily/street use right? Because I am thinking of something streetable and has tons of traction..

Lol... Close enough.. They are suppose to hook better on the street than on the track. I almost got a set of hoosiers.. It rains too much in Houston and the INVOs are OUTSTANDING!
