you will need a beefed up short block. some wild cams, and ported heads along with a lot of compression. It won't be much fun to drive on the street like that either, it probably won't idle well and you will need some very short gears to get into your powerband

modular motors LOVE boost, they suck it down like candy. It's almost as if these motors were designed for forced induction.

Don't come crying to us when you hate your car cuz it's a pain in the ass to drive.

I've got your 2nd paragraph and let me tell you it Idles fine with .550 lift cams. Of course I raised the Idle RPM. Don't FEAR the CAMS!:pepper: Pull up to a light with my set up and all heads turn to look. Lo:poke: se the SHAKER HOOD and get a GROUND SHAKER. I never did understand why someone would belong to a "MUSTANG COLOR CLUB" what gives is your's faster than say a RED one?:bash:

can't believe I'm back in here....

cam lift has very little to do with the idle quality. .550 is STOCK on PI heads. The duration and LSA will have an effect on idle qualiity.

Color clubs are simply ways for owners of any particular model to connect with yet one more thing in common. Also, certain colors like YELLOW are more rare than others and the owners feel a certain pride in exclusivity. Check out the Yellow Mustang Registry sometime. They're generally a bunch of nice folks with the unfortunate affliction of color blindness.

I don't know, but I do know that DSG stangs are for sure the fastest! DUH!

only if it's a Mach1 in dublin. :)

I made 400rwhp on a 2v N/A on my home-made dyno that I made with paper towel tubes and roller skate wheels...I used plastic lightweight cams and a crank made from a special kind of cookie dough...SEE YOU CAN MAKE 400rwhp with a 2v!!! Wake up from your dream and buy a flucking blower.

Wow, this one went downhill quickly.

zig zagg... you're the ginchy-est. (Ask someone 45yrs or older what that means if you don't know... it's not an insult)

well this is going no where.
