alright im new here, looking for some advice right now i have a 03 impala ls turbo charged. looking into selling it and picking up a 99 mustang gt and putting a kenne bell 1.7 on it. i wanted to go with the 2.2 but it looks like its going to take quit a bit of upgrading the engine before i can go that far. right now with my impala im making about 330 Fwhp and run high 12's. is it going to be worth it to go with this gt setup i want.


thanks

Well, the kenne bell 1.7 @9 PSI (the max for stock GT engines) will give you over 400 RWHP and over 400 RWTQ. So, you tell me? The 2.2 is only for built engines. Welcome to the forums. If you have any questions about your project you can PM me or post in the 4.6 section. I will be more then happy to help. Have fun!
