It will take more than 14psi to get a 10 second pass on these cars.

i havent since the swap, only with the POS t5 (which i broke several of)

14psi the best you could probably hope for is a 11.4 without drastic weight reduction and suspension mods.

my guess is you will need at least low 120s to hit a high 10 (and likely closer to 125-127)

the best ive trapped is 122mph on 12psi, and that was with the exhaust disconnected and 100 octane.

12psi on a safe tune is 410rwhp and 459rwtq
12psi on an unsafe tune with open exhaust was 454rwhp 515rwtq
14psi on as safe as a 14psi tune can get was 450rwhp and 515rwtq (exhaust on, but no mufflers)

and turbov6mustang, get use to blowing up t5s
is the automatic tranny safe? i heard the auto tranny can take a slighter better beating than the manual v6 trans, is it true? i really dont want to risk anything you know.
