I just bought a 94GT 5 speed. I was wondering, what mods and about how much money am I looking at to reach 300rwhp? Right now the car is bone stock.

It never ends!
The 5.0L engine has more torque than the 4.6L engine.96flmustang said:Ya, I was kind of thinking about just saving for a blower. I think I could get a decent supercharger for 2 grand. I had a 96 GT Vert auto that I put 4.10's and full exhaust. But after that, it sure woke the car up but was still in the mid 15 sec range. I am hoping that the 5.0 will be cheaper to mod and easier to work on then the 4.6. Plus, I love the 5 speed and it seems the 5.0 feels like it has more torque.

The 4.6L is more expensive to mod as the 5.0L is cheaper to mod.
You could get the Vortech S or SQ trim tuner kit for about 2700-2800
I do belive but,you will still need the supporting mods to run the supercharger.
I recommend the going with the Procharger P1SC.

I would differ comparing a stock 5.0 to a 4.6 in a 03-04 Mach 1 car.........the Mach has more tq , but I know what your saying
wytstang said:First the 94-97 have the same 215/280 power rating just different power bands (98 bumped up to 225 like the 92-older 5.0's) A unported/ported cobra intake (or like), a custom cam, and head of choice will get you to your goals. If you are focused on 1/4 times don't worry about what the dyno says as far as hp/tq it's just a tuning device. Focus on the whole package (suspension, gearing, weight, and the most important mod of all...............a good driver. There are plenty of low hp/tq cars running just as fast if not faster then high power cars.
