so what do you think I can safely put down? My goal is 400 rwhp, however, my buddy pat (on the forums here) just made 381 w/ a s-trim and stage one cams. So do you think I could realistically make in the 400+ range? I was talking to the guy that tunes our mustangs (really smart when it comes to mustangs, owns his own business tuning them) and he said that he could probably squeeze anything between 400 and ~450 safely. What do you think? Thanks for the input!

390rwhp

if i were to do a vortech, i wouldn't ever go above 400, its my DD and i need it. I cant go around blowing it up or anything, that would be horrible. dont have the money for a new car. but some guys on here (not sure if youre one of them) this is their hobby, and it wouldn't ruin them financially if they had to replace or rebuild a car they might have another car available to them. Im sure it would be horrible for them to but they would still be okay. me? id be walking to work.

^^pansy...mines a DD lol well was...nows its my hobby car, cept my little comuter car doesnt have ac so as far as im concerned ima driving the stang all summer!! wewt. id say close to 400. I am planing on stage one heads stage 2 cams and an intercooler, probebly just 8 psi ish and im crossing my fingers for 400ish. of course i figure ill get right around there and with stock internals i wont be able to change anything, so im hoping the speed bug settles for a bit so i can have fun.

You will be able to take that set-up to the block limits

what kinda dyno and calabration has like a +-30 horsepower range, but since N/A cams wont help too much with boost I'll say 370rwhp as a low number. Its better to expect low and get higher numbers anyways

I look forward to seeing your numbers :D

if I hit anything below 399 I am going to disown my mustang lol

with a T trim I can't imagine you WOULD hit anything less than 400 with a 3.33 pulley. That's quite a bit of boost for a stock engine

I hope its not too high boost... But the motors only got ~47k miles on it too (well maintained)

No I really don't.

Mileage doesnt matter. With a t-trim you should definitely be able to reach your maximum goals on the stock bottom end.

edit: Luckily you can get it going without the items out of stock. Let us know what you turn up.
