Denny right now man I'm in the same boat as you, I'm preformance modded out. Boss 244 is a great example of what you can do with your ride getting it to 14.3 in the 1/4 NA. He has tried everything and bought somethings twice.
If a number is what you are shooting for I am out of ideas but if you want power to the wheels go to the route I tried and deeper.
I just recently put on LCA's,anti-squat brackets,T-lock, 3.73, Lowering springs, the car pulls like a beast right now. I can't drive so I don't hit great times but I kept up with a 315RWHP 06 V6 Vert for about 300 feet until his power band kicked in, but if you have power to the wheels it makes up for alot.

I'm looking at a 3 stage performance process on my stang to get 400hp/400tq, over a 5yr period. Im in the first stage of it, to get every bolt-on that will give me more HP/na, then the second stage will be the handling & internal stage. The third stage will be F/I-sc/tc= my goal. At that point I know the turbocharger will do it for me, but Im not sure about the supercharger. ps: no juice for my baby!

ya dude, it's crank power vs. wheel power. anyways i just found this. a dyno of a stock 05 v6. this is just to give everyone the idea ballpark figure of what we probably are/were pushing.

Crap! I should have noticed that! thanks!

I am that 315rwhp vert that rmays06 was talking about. I am old school about HP ratings but after driving his car, which pulled much harder than mine out of the hole, it showed me that suspension has a lot to do with the power of the car. You can have all the HP in the world but if you don't put it to the ground and know how to drive it's useless. I ordered the LCAs and i am going to focus on the suspension now. As for the converter, i had mine loosened up about 400 rpm and it didn't give me more HP but it changed the rpm band that the power got put to the ground.
