I can't even hear higher rpm, its all supercharger.

Blower whine... :thumbsup:

what do you mean?, stock gt comes with a 8.8 track lock

I mean if you are going to start making 'big boy power', the stock 8.8 is going to need help as well.

Guess it depends on how far you wanna go. My stock one was fine running low 11s with 1.6 60s all day

I think you can go pretty dam far with the factory 8.8.


But i guess if youre talking 500-600+ hp you may need to upgrade

I actually fell into a good deal on this V-6 Mustang, but given the choice, I dunno? Proly best that I wasn't. My fear about G.T.'s (pre-owned) are being ragged out and ran the hell out of (which is understandable if you maintain it). My full insurance was only 250 bucks too. I remember as a kid, there were actually anemic 4 cyl. Pinto's in disguise called Mustang II's so this V-6 is pretty peppy. Was actually surprised by the torque and seeing the factory shorty style folds... BUT you're right, there's nothing like the sound, power, and feel that a V-8 (especially a small block ford) gives you. I will probably buy a GT or Cobra after finishing this one, the seed has already been planted by y'alls builds...

This is still a thing?

Why boost a v6 when you can boost a v8
