Fastest NA mustangs
Ok, so early on I had thought about building up my engine and trying to put together a 400rwhp NA mustang. Well, I lost patience in that idea and am currently preparing to go forced induction. But I'm curious as to what kind of numbers you NA guys are making out there in the 05/06 mustangs? NO superchargers....NO turbos.....NO nitrous.............just all engine. I want to see how high ppl have gone with their NA setups so far.
Also, let us see what setups you are using.

298 now. water pump will free up 6-10...in the mail right now. then headers/h-pipe and a new dyno tune another 30 or so. get back to me in 2 months, when i should put down 335 or so.
then bring on the aggressive cams and ported heads!

315WHP/333TQ
ran a 12.5 the last time i went to the track but i spent so much trying to get it NA fast that i wish i would have just built up the engine a little bit and bought the saleen blower...it would have cost about the same and probably be faster.

. The price I pay for a quick, big jump to the 400's.

RE: Fastest NA mustangs
I've been trying to do the same thing. I've got the UDP's, CAI with performance tune, just have to get some axle backs. Don't know what else can be done. I don't have the 4 or 5 grand for a blower, so I'm thinking of different ways without getting "into " my engine. Just bolt ons. We're getting 5 grand back from income taxes, but if I don't want a divorce I better not spend it on a blower. lol

Also, if you're looking for improved performance.....just putting axlebacks on won't do much. Unless you're having some custom pipes made at a local shop, you may want to look into some headers, hi-flow cats, and a midpipe in addition to some new mufflers. Will still be cheaper than a blower.

RE: Fastest NA mustangs
on a mustang dyno i put out 281hp and 322tq. i don't rely on the dyno #'s alone since they can be altered and sometimes parts that perform well on a dyno do nothing at the track where it counts. weigh is the biggest issue when staying n/a. right now there is only so much you can do engine wise so i'm waiting until the cams are released then i'll pull the heads and have a valve job done clean up the chambers get new springs retainers cams and shave the heads a little to bump up the compression to 10.5-11:1. that should get me 400+ hp. next winter i will build a 5.4 shortblock with forged internals and then swap the good heads on it. the car and chassis setup is critical when dealing with a low hp heavy car. remove weight whever possible wheels tires are a good place to start. i lost 100lbs by switching from the stock bullits to the bogarts. and the aluminum driveshaft gives back some lost hp in the drivetrain also. it does take more time and parts to equal a the gains a s/c will give but so far the money is about the same for all the mods i've done. my newest mod is a methanol/water injection kit from snow performance. even though i'm n/a it will still aloow me to run more timing and keep the intake charge cooler and should be worth 10-20hp. add in some nitro booster and 30-50hp is very easy to get. i should have that done next week. i postn the results before and after.
my best so far 12.62 @106mph 1/8mile=8.00 60'=1.72 2006 gt auto n/a stock engine t/b to oilpan.

Please also PM me with the snow performance info. I think you've talked me into the meth kit...LOL
