I think I'm going to do the Steeda CAI and tune after my springs and shocks. That is if I don't order a blower... lol. 525 warrantied whp would be pretty sweet.

but then you're sitting at GT500 power, and I sir, say NO to that. Kenne Bell or bust!

Having driven a few 550 plus whp mustangs before I can tell you that any more power is useless unless you prefer highways or are building a track only machine.

true true, I tell ya what though man, I almost got embarrassed last night by one of the 3.7's, I was at a stop light where the speed limit is 55mph (always down for a spirited run up to the speed limit), he hole shotted me, I spun for a good bit, of course I slingshotted past him once I gripped but I do agree, any more power and it becomes almost useless. I couldnt believe the audacity that guy had though:icon17:

Dude I've been looking them up and have been seeing a few running 13.6s bone stock. I bet the 2005-2010 4.6 guys are pretty ticked.

Those are 4th gear dyno pulls and not accurate due to the Getrag's gearing. A 5th gear dyno pull usually turns out 355-375whp.

If they were 4th gear pulls I would have disregarded them as I am fully aware that 5th is the 1:1.

i've not seen one, even on a mustang, dyno at 355, i've seen numerous at 380+, if it dyno'ed at 355, it had to be at an elevation of 3,000 ft. or above.

"Rollin, in my 5.0, put the rag top down so my hair can blow". Baller. And yes, that car gives me a raging boner that even a good solid wank cant get rid of. Jesus.
