how much HP
I've got a buddy that brags about how much Hp, he has in his 91 LX 5.0. heres a rundown of what he has:
BBK CAI
GT40 HEADS
COMP STAGE 2 CAMS
30Lbs Injectors with 80mm Maf
Trickflow Intake
BBK Throttlebody
BBK Headers
Mac ProChamber Hpipe
40 Series Flowmasters
Cobra Computer
Now he's claiming 400-425 RWHP, could this be feesable? I find that hard to believe. I have an 05 Stang GT, if I were to put those parts or equal, I'd be lucky to break 380-400RWHP. And I know I came stock with at least 40-50 more HP than a 91 LX 5.0. If anyone can help me prove him wrong I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks for your time.

RE: how much HP
Under 300. I'm at 450 or may be a little more and look at what some of my mods are.
He's out of his mind. I had to do the heads, cam, stroker kit, Pro M MAF, and 42 lb. inj. to get to those levels.
I was at 270 RWHP with an SC and a ton more mods than he has.

RE: how much HP
he's making about 260-270rwhp with that combo.
My 302 w/ AFR165 heads, BBK intake and full exhaust made 270rwhp
and those are a lot better heads than he's running.
you're making about 250-260rwhp in a stock '05 GT
It should be a close race between a stock '05 GT and a 5.0 with those mods.
He might take you if he has 3.73 gears............. and he is a little liter.
His 30lbs injectors are a total waste of money too.
Stock 19's would keep up with that combo easy.
I'm running 24's and making over 350rwhp and running rich.
