Thanks for your quick response. The car will be used for street driving mostly, with occasional track use, mainly drag strip over actual track driving. Very much a beginner with that stuff at this point.
The car is the standard weight for a gt premium, which I believe is like 3850 or...
I have a 2013 mustang GT that is currently around 600 rwhp. I'm building up a plan to take it to 800-900 rwhp. I've worked with the folks from Brenspeed on the engine in the past, so I'm pretty set on that. As always, if anyone with tips has questions, please let me know and I'll be happy to...
For the people that chose the 2015 and newer as their answer, would your answer change if you were going to built a fully built motor in your 2013-14? If the plan was to do that no matter what, would the 15 and above still win out in your opinions?
I guess what I'm trying to get to is let's say for argument sake I went with the block i mentioned above...... figuring in the cost of installation and out of 15k, not much is left. Based on the information I provided above, what would be the absolutely have to have with that block to make it...
The shortblock is a racing spec block sleeved, 1300-1400 hp capable, it would come with manley pistons and upgraded wrist pins, manley I beam rods, arp main studs, billet oil pump and crank gears...etc
Yes E85 is available to me, its just a matter of scoping out a few that are close enough to...

The exhaust system is a full kooks 1 7/8 headers...
My current setup has my car at just around 600 rwhp... which covers blower / exhaust / suspension...etc
I want to take the next step and go to the "magic" number of 1000 hp.. most likely crank since its an auto (would love 1000 rwhp but I don't think I can get it with out nitrious and race...
Right now I'm sitting at 600rwhp.. give or take a few hp depending on the temp and day.... I'm seriously considering getting a full race block to go up to 1k hp... if I do, I'm going to have to get rid of my 2.3l roush blower... go up to a whipple or kenne bell... or TT... however I'm going...
I wanted to ask the mustang pros on this forum if you guys could give me some suggestions. I have went through the forums, and googled the crap out of it... but didn't really get a concise answer.
Before I upgraded under the hood, I started with upgrading the suspension. I did the Roush all...
Thanks for posting this.. it's nice to read about others experiences with their exhaust setups/sound. On my 2013, I have kooks 1 7/8 LTH.. with off road H pipe... along with magnaflow competition quad axle backs.. and at cold start its a neighborhood shaker....... warmed up though and it...
No, it's actually the red candy metallic from 2013. I believe Ford went to the ruby red in 2014 and beyond. The local body shops I've talked to local have said the same thing, because these aftermarket places are just pumping them out, they require a lot of prep work, and they pretty much all...
I wanted to ask the crowd here there experiences in what they've seen for prep time and costs... fitting, and costs of painting and blending for aftermarket hoods.
Not including the cost of the hood... I was quoted almost 2k for the body work... fitment, paint labor, and paint supplies. I will...
