Ya the mustang sixers suck as far as they come out of the package. 190 hp or whatever it is..
Even these little 06+ eclipse 6cyls pump out enough power to contend with a GT from the factory.. and the 350z's about the same..
I hated my car for a while, and just said screw it and started doing stuff.. IMO its turned out to be a very nice car, and its got some ***** to it now..

yeah factory it sucks, but its a great platform to mod on. Its simple and cheap. I cant wait till next tax returns ...... 4.2 Forged here I come. I already have the block for $50 from someone local XD Cant beat that. All I have to do is prep it, put the parts in, and swap.

It's cool modding the sixes and everything if thats your thing. I personally don't like the sound of them, but more power to anyone who does. Either way, it takes money to add power, whether it be a V6, V8, V10, or whatever.

Reading this thread made me think of a few questions, mostly my opinion, but i was in your same position at one point with my v6. If you look at my sig its obvious what i went with.
Is it worth the trouble with all the clearance issues?
why not get a procharger?
why not get a set of turbos?
why not spray your way into 300rwhp for alot less? Spray, some cam, some forged internals?
why not drop in a 2v or 4v?
why not save up for a car with 300rwhp stock?

Is it worth the trouble with all the clearance issues? - Im not going to have any clearence issues, not with a hole in my hood lol.
why not get a procharger? - A procharger isnt going to give me a flat TQ line and boost at 1200rpms
why not get a set of turbos? - Again, spool time and cost
why not spray your way into 300rwhp for alot less? Spray, some cam, some forged internals? - Dont like the idea of spray, and who says im not going to forge my internals and get a cam?
why not drop in a 2v or 4v? - Cost, time, and still wouldnt be a real GT or cobra
why not save up for a car with 300rwhp stock? - Still paying off the v6

to me it seems like you a dead set on your project and its obvious that you are concerned more with originality and aren't very concerned about getting the most horsepower per dollar.
This time let me answer for you:
- A procharger isnt going to give me a flat TQ line and boost at 1200rpms: Is your stock drivetrain going to take the beating of instant trq? Answer: Its only a matter of time
- Again, spool time and cost: spool time? Answer:get a set of baby mitsu turbos from a junkyard eclispe.
- Dont like the idea of spray, and who says im not going to forge my internals and get a cam? In post #32 you were talking about a 4.2 stroker wtf? Are you afraid of spray? Answer: Nitrous is alot more efficient than the m112 blowing hot air in your motor.
- Cost, time, and still wouldnt be a real GT or cobra: isn't putting an m112 on a v6 trying to replicate a cobra? Answer: Yes
- Still paying off the v6: if your worried about paying it off, then why are you turning it into a project car?
And I apologize for being a ********, but your ignorance and flawed logic pisses me off. Have a nice night. Stephen you can take over. And afterall I am just trying to help you.

Its obvious you dont know what you are talking about and just trying to troll me at this point, so im going to tell you GET THE **** OUT OF MY THREAD!
Im glad you have yourself a cobra now, but it does not make you all knowledgeable on mustangs.

-no thanks?

-Not when im only running 7PSI, there is not going to be a lot of hot air at all. Talk to a guy over at 3.8mustang called rico, he is running 7PSI with about 170degree IATs I believe.
- Cost, time, and still wouldnt be a real GT or cobra: isn't putting an m112 on a v6 trying to replicate a cobra? Answer: Yes
-No. Its me putting on a cost effective blower onto my V6.
- Still paying off the v6: if your worried about paying it off, then why are you turning it into a project car?
- Because I want to, and its none of your god damned business what I do with my car.

Most horsepower per dollar, the m112 total will prolly run like 2-3 grand.
SSM's 4.3 Long Rod Stroker Kit, a custom cam - about 2 grand and NA sits at about 225 RWHP. - HOWEVER - the advantage of spending this money for merely 35ish horsepower is the internals you gain through this which allows for better future plans.
Dump a 2 valve into it? Wtf? Why replace one shitty motor with yet another shitty motor? These motors are severely underpowered compared to the camarao, firebird, and other v8 motors. hell even the cobra plops on a blower..
Nitrous is the way I like to go, but its got alot of people scared. And yea, it can and will blow your **** up sometimes..
In the end dude, do what you want to do, and have fun. You don't get paid to do this ****, its just for your enjoyment. If it were actually a bad idea, we'd tell you.

i hate high school kids that get the hair brained idea of putting a cobra blower on thier v6 because they saw someone do it on the forums. And for the record, calling it project terminator makes you a poser bud.

You can't produce the same power from that blower that a v8 can, sure, but its always interesting.
Remember - you had instant power as soon as you bought that car, as the blower is already attached.
Then again.. theres a forum full of guys that drive a v6 that make your modded cobra look like a honda...
2 less cylinders isn't necessarily a bad thing

Alot of times, you get your idea through something out of a forum, because generally, thats how word gets around.

WOW well your little 4.2L is still a v6.. goto SVTP and they will make your 4.2L look like a damn huffy.

Then again YOUR STILL ON A SHORT BLOCK grow a pair, dump in a long block and run real times. If you wanna play that, we can play that. Lmao.
Better yet Badfishes little crotch rocket will eat any of our mustangs up. Less cylinders, much smaller engine
When you do something, other then talk your ****, and figure out to have respect for what a motor will produce, come back and talk.
BTW, my little 4.2L "huffy" puts out more power NA then your big bad GT does.
Real power on a cobra 615RWHP, as of sunday, my buddies. REAL ENGINE WORK, STILL RESPECT FOR OTHER CARS.
Better yet, 900 RWHP over 1 thousand lbs of tq produced on that Cobra II in the pictures section, REAL ENGINE WORK STILL RESPECT FOR OTHER CARS. BTW, that guy is doing my build, wheres yours? Back to Geico? Rofl, you're a joke.

Good call with the ****** remark. I always love some loser calling me names
And yea, theres always a faster car, and in your case, its a shitload of v6's and 4cylinders, lmao. Brandons so much faster? Maybe you just need to stop typing on here, and do some research lol.
Like I said, when you aren't a joke, come back and run your mouth.

As you've used your friends car to talk up yours. You aren't intelligent enough apparently to figure out that it doesn't take a v8 to put up good times and big power.
And yea, I may blow up v6's, but atleast I don't run into ****
