With my mods, the long tubes + pulley, and re-tuned, should be able to get close to 350. That would put you over the 400bhp range, then you might stand a fighting chance against the new 5.0 Mustang, im looking forward to giving it a go.

Maybe ported/polished heads? Titanium engine bits? (probably stuff that doesn't even exist yet for the VQ37 for all I know). I just don't see the OP getting his wish.

Well, the 5.0 is not going to be putting them into the 11s.
The Mustang is rated just over 400 and we have not gotten official rear wheel numbers to see the power loss, add in the weight, and other things and it is still close. Heck the new Camaro SS has a good 100hp over us and it barely wins in a straight line.

Remember guys, just because we cannot get 400rwhp does not mean we are slower, after you get going on power look into weight savings a bit maybe and better suspension or braking. Just because it does not add to your power band does not mean it is bad.

It just ain't gonna happen without FI.
