well new door handles and windshield whipers almost are like adding cubic inches to i guess, whats that another 20-30 HP right there?

ok it wasnt even funny the first time, 2nd time KILLED it, neway thanks for the rating guys who know what there talking about, but i must say i think ill make 300 wheel with that setup. ill make 250 wheel with just upper and lower headers,pulley, injectors, exhaust, tb and mass so with heads, cam ill def get another 50 hp.

300rwhp is harder than some think. Remember, that all the claims in the magazines and on the box is not always the gains on ur application. My mass air said a 22hp gain, when in actuality it was dynoed on a supercharged car. So o n/a car would be 10-15, and thats at the higher rpms! So a REAL 300rwhp car is not as easy as u would think, but with the mods u got u should be either 300 or pretty close.

so 275rwhp means like 320bhp or something right?. But the biggest and most noticable difference in a cars ET's are.....NEW SUPERCHARGED FLOOR MATS!...extra 1,000horses.

rwhp and bhp are the same thing, rear wheel horsepower, and break horsepower is what it stands for........

as for an asnwer to the thread, what cam are you running? that makes alot, if your running a decent cam, you might see 300

how many mustangs have you owned and how long have you owned them for?. I bet you've never worked on a car in your life. Dont try acting like you know all this **** about mustangs and acting all hard about ****. Also, Everyone else seemed to think that **** was funny.

Might also want to take into account how many miles are on the engine.
