I was on the Mustang forums and the 99-04 GT's only dyno 225-240hp at the wheels. I think the new 05 GT dyno at 255-260. I've watched the Horse Power show and one of the guys on the show is a Mustang guy and he put a Vortec SC in his 97-99 Stang and it only dynoed at 286hp!! I thought that was a joke. Rockin85 it won't even be a race!!

 

Thats no surprize, the LT1 puts out about the same. But then again the LT1 was over 2 years old when that GT came out.

If it was a 97 or 98 stang I can believe that. Then only came stock with about 225 BHP. But Ive seen several newer mustangs with a blower that were in the 400s HP & trq wise. Even a few V6s.

 

if it was an 07 GT i wouldnt even bother. my friend has one and they supposedly come stock with 300hp. the things got *****, i went for a ride and in no time we were going 70.

 

Yeah an 05-07 GT would kill you. They are not as quick as an LS1 Camaro, but still 13 sec. cars. My buddy has a 98 4.6 GT. I ran him when my fuel regulator was going out and I didn't have a constant flow of fuel to the motor. From a 45 roll we were even, from a dig he took me by about 2 car lengths. I'd like to run him again since my car is fixed now. You should have no problembeating that V6 stang.

 

4.6 2 valve stangs are ratedaround 240 crank HP. I think the 3.8 V6 stang make around 185 crank HP. the lesser 6 producesa littleless i think its around165. The with your list off mods you should bea littlefaster than a stock 3.8 camaro. I would say you take him.

 

ish, the 96-98 GT - 225hp 99-04 - 260/305
v6 -145 hp - 193hp

the 96-98 cobras were all at 300hp and can be a little goofy. ford was lax with the cams, and since there is 4, a lax configuration can mean hit or miss. when they miss they are dogs and have goofy torque curves, when they hit, they hit hard

 

sorry, totally thought I was posting in TheStig's thread about the cobra that revved at his truck.... oh well, the info is out there [8D]

 

a cobra reved at my truck? I have a truck? specter, have you been drinking? Maybe you have a leak in your Nitrous lines?

 

eh... maybe it was whammer..... all yall look alike!!!! [/Chris Tucker]

 

Dont forget the Mach1 325HP damn sexy car even if it is a stang
