Procharger vs Engine Swap
#41
Yea that would be nice depending on the tune, amount of boost, ect... @ 12 psi w/ heads you will make in the 360+ rwhp range.

I kn ow i cant believe it honestly, i didnt know the potential for these sixxers. I thought it was weak and good to just have little mods on but the more i read the better ands the more i want to keep my six.

The budget you have will dictate how fast your car will be.

Just to give you an idea.... Jenna on the Mustang Collective was making roughly 430rwhp/525rwtq with a turbo setup, the only thing done to her motor is upgraded valve springs... Justin Starkey's wife Rebecca has a 2005 V6 w/ a Vortech @ 14-15psi putting down 400rwhp/385rwtq.... Stock motor. There are a few others that run 14/15psi w/ Vortech/Procharger and make near the 400rwhp range, turbos posting higher numbers then that! Especially torque wise...

See thats amazing to me, i sixxer making over 400 wrhp. See i would love to make a 430+ hp stang. I really would love to get heads, cams, and procharged at 10+psi set up. It will cost a big dollar but worth it. My boss today afford to find a v8 and he did. He said he could get me a roll over totalled gt mustang with motor, tranny (manual), wire harness, drive shaft, rear end etc etc all for $1500-$2000 so thats kinda in my face to cause if i spend $6000+ on a sixxer which includes cams, heads, FI mods why not get the 4.6 and then get the heads, cams, and FI? I will have a crazy *** car. But then again like i said i love to be different so man its so hard to pick

Yes, Andrew, it's a tough decision. But, it'll be your car. Either way you'll love the power difference.
Just be aware, with the V6, the power limits you can push the engine to will be lower; a turbo can push the car over 400 and not blow most motors, but a centri blower pushing that push power would require a lot more boost and would likely (or soon) destroy a stock-internals engine. (If you've mentioned building up the 4.0 internals, then ignore this warning factor!)
