I don't know about that now. Just put a turbo or two on one and you can put down over 1k rwhp on the stock engine with out even pulling the valve covers off. But just like any car you have to put your money in the right area.

You are right, but it won't live long... and building it correctly is 30 grand, according to a good friend who had one... Not worth 50 + grand for the car and mods imo.

RW means jack **** on those cars... Mine made 480 rw and ran 117. lmao. my c6 traps much more than that on motor with the same rw... 117 is fucken sad in today's hot rod world imo.

just giving you my opinion... i think your car is awesome, just nice to look at, I wouldn't own another mod motor Stang...
BTW I have some HREs for that thing if you wanted to make it bling as it can be... Custom Gunmetal 5 spokes with big polished lips...

and thanks!
not much really looks that good on the purple besides chrome/polished. i know a guy that tried to put some grey centered CCWs on his. it looked kinda goofy. i might have a picture of it. ill look. i've also seen black cobras on one and it doesnt look good either
only ones i have. it looked ok in these pics. but it looked goofy in full-car pictures

30k? damn... I can see that kind of price from a shop building it. But it can be done for a hell of a lot less. I know because I built my own motor and know what it cost, and built my turbo kit. Like I said you have to spend the money in the right place. I have a little over 5k in the motor build and turbo kit and about 1k in the fuel system. Doing it your self saves a lot of $$$.
