Just wanted to see if I was on pace with the mods done and what she actually puts down? Here are a list of mods with a brief description of the car. This can also help others out who always ask "what does it take to break 300/400/whatever hp".

1997 Mustang GT, Automatic

Vortech SQ Trim ( I see about 12psi)
3.12 pulley
MPH power pipe
Vortech mini race bypass valve
Paxton front mount intercooler
PI intake manifold
Crower stage II NPI blower cams (soon to come)
Accufab 70mm throttle body
Accufab plenum
SLP longtubes
SLP offroad x pipe
SLP loudmouth catback
K&N filter
Walbro 255lph intank pump
FRPP 42# injectors
SCT dyno tuned

Other factors:
4.10 gear
Built AODE
3500 torque converter


Roughly where do you think I should be?

Neat. Are you going to have the tune re-done with the cams?

yup, doing the cams, springs, retainers, degreeing them and getting one last tune for the car. Realistically I think I should see between 400-420rwhp/400+tq

Dang, that's no small investment. Don't you hate that? I had to stop keeping a tally on my cars. I didn't want to know anymore.

ha, I keep saying that too but it never turns out that way. I did change course on what I was planning on doing so it will end up being cheaper in the short run.
