low $40s, boss intake manifold, some suspension stuff, brakes. You can throw a coupel hundred dollar boss intake on a 5.0 and pick up great power, boss intake has been shown to keep climbing with cams past 7800rpms.

Taken from modularfords:

Car is totally stock except for the DR's and 110 unleaded in the tank that day.

We also dyno'd the car two days before it ran that number but it had 87 octane in the tank. Still made 390 at the tire SAE. Customer thought since the owners manual said it could run 87 that it was ok on the Red key as well, he now knows better. LOL

He will be taking it back to the track this weekend on a full slick.



You can hear it spinning the DR's im guessing it will pickup a tenth or 2 with full slicks, IF the weather is as good.

And I agree the Boss paint is ugly as hell.

I dont care who you are or what your driving. Running an 11.7 your first time in any car with the window sticker still on and the only mod being drag radials is VERY IMPRESSIVE.

390 rwhp stock? DAYUM

Thing is every bit as fast as a C5Z. Wich is no easy feat. C5Z06 even till this day is still a quick ride.

The 117 mph trap really blew my mind. Thats fast for a stocker.

Agree, if you don't like getting beat by newer cars then you better start buying some go fast parts

Agree to that too. Competition this feverish is only going to benefit us in the end. It forces the big three to comeout with a better product and adhere to a pricepoint(for the most part)

Hes right though. Why compare a 2003 to a brand new car? Thats like comparing a Ls1 car to a 93 Cobra. Big whoopy

Car is bad ***, but that one is ugly

The Boss does look a little bold but you can't argue that it works. What are the mods needed to get a 10SS to trap 117 mph?

Thats MIR and it looks to be a private rental(could be wrong) which means sick sick prep. Thats a FAST track too. Impressive car! Ill take a post 01 C5 Z06 instead though.

I wonder if the front swaybar was removed? Race gas with stock tune???

It's being compared by one person on a public internet forum. Who gives a ****? You and that other cry baby. It's not like Ford as a company is making a press conference about comparing the two.

Not to mention the fact that he did compare Ford's best n/a car to almost a decade old Corvette should be a complement. So wipe those eyes and throw those tissues away you two bowtie wearing sissy boys.

I agree, IIRC you can get them without the goofy *** colored roof and wheels, too.
