Default 7000USD to spend, what to spend it on?

Hello everyone, I need some help to chose what to buy, I got a Mustang GT 05, and 7000USD to spend on it.

My plan is to get to around 400+ rwhp,( later I might go higer but right now 400 will do) and overall better performance.

Im just looking for internal parts, that gives me better performance, the exterior will have to wait until I have something in the car thats worth showing of with


So what way is the best to get where I want, buy a S/C? Turbo? Or can I make 400 without those?


Now help me spend these please, thanks

bolt ons may get you there but its a lot of work

sc/turbo will be more impressive to friends and all and will hav that punch with the boost

sc is better than turbo imo because sc will be cheaper and turbo may blow the engine sooner

I would do Kenne Bell or Rousch Supercharger with intercooler, that with install cost and extras, fuel pump upgrade, injectors, etc..... will probablyuse up7k and you will get where you want to be but you will still be stock on everything else.

You may want to add every bolt-on there is availablerand then throw a bottel on it, do you want the 400 rwhp all the time or just for the track ?

Saleen SC with the 475hp upgrade kit , fuel system and clutch. If you have money left Steeda CAI. Best money I spent so far on my car. Its a Z06 killer.

A trade in isnt possible here in Sweden, you need to import the car if you want on here, so no trade is possible.

All the installations will be done by myself and my father. So no installation cost is required.

What do you meen by fuel system? I was thinking of getting the Ford GT dual fuel pumps, What kind of clutch is recommended?


If you can post links to sites with the stuff you are talking about I would be very glad.

ok prove that statement to me.


I would go with your choice of f/i followed by some suspension mods, lca, uca, springs maybe wheels and tires if you have enough money.
