Now if you had a GT you'd get around 5-8 rwhp with a CAI, 10-16 rwhp with a full exhaust system, 8-12 rwhp with pulleys, and bookoo hp with a cam.[8D]
you read too many magizines

i have done the same basic mods on V8 and V6 cars. guess what?

the V8 is not different than the V6 either 4.6 or 5.0

bolton's give nothing but money to the place that you bought them

Oh, don't do 4.10s on a 94-98 V6, you'll be kicking yourself in the *** if you do as you'll start having some problems, 3.73s are the optimal gear setting for both V6 and GT sn95s.
while i agree that 3.73's are the perfect gear i would like to hear what problems any gear change will make

actually, depending on the GT, you could get that much. you can get 30RWHP from just an intake & tuner on an 05+GT. but yeah. it's still like 3RWHP from a CAI anything pre-05.
