I would rather see hellion come out with a kit for the 3.7l
'11 3.7 Mustang 423rwhp ProCharged
- Thread starter BLK93GT
- Start date
Hrm...V6, auto, 'vert, procharger, tune. Sounds like that might be a replacement for my '03...
Impressive!
Now where's the twin turbo kits and forged shortblocks....

Nice. Def leaving some power on the table with the stock exhaust though.
now that's what the hell i'm talking about! although hellion systems are a bit expensive. i would like to see a budget kit from these guys

What is with the 8% correction factor?? did they dyno at the top of the Alps? Seems a bit exaggerated.
Pre 'correction' it only pulled 396rwhp, and only 319ft-lbs.
$26.6k for v6 Prem + $5500 procharger to still be slower then a stock 5.0L which you can get for $33.6k. I would think its smarter to spend the extra $1500 and just get the V8. It will be more reliable then the boosted v6, keep factory warranties, not to mention, you won't be capped at 400-450rwhp (would be hesitant on the life of a v6 motor running 450rwhp).
I guess if you have the money and want to be the fastest v6, go nuts... i think its more economical to get the 5.0L rather then dumping thousands of dollars into a v6 just to match the stock performance of the available 5.0L
Here is an overlay of a stock 5.0L, and the dyno of that procharged v6 (even using the 8% correction factor).
Blue - Stock 5.0L
Red - Procharged v6 Mustang

I removed the intake/tune and the exhaust graphs and used the stock baseline curve.

v6, cheaper insurance rates, and you get a base 6 and add the blower... and beat up on a stock 5.0, not to mentions 70% of the other mustang gts around... awesome car
I wonder If they will make kits for the edge sport too?? that has the same engine and could be a fun sleeper!
Cheaper insurance rates bro?
Your throwing down 6 grand + on a blower kit to bolt onto your V6; how are you going to bitch about the $12.50 a month difference in insurance costs (I priced it out with my insurance company) between a V8 and a V6... Are you seriously that strapped slinging that kind of upgrade coinage around?
IMO that's a pretty lame ass argument if your ultimately looking to drop more loot on the V6 car then the GT would have cost; I see these V6 guys using it everywhere.
At 8 PSI according to the graph this kid mocked up above, your not even beating a stock GT unless your racing from a high rev roll.
Your spending more money then a stock GT for less performance, less power potential, less reliability, less respect, & no warranty.
But hey as long as your saving that 12 bucks a month your good to go right?

+1
come at him, bro
and at the end of the day it still sounds like a V6 which always sounds out of place in a mustang IMO
I also stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night.
+1 to the V6 sound coming from a stang.
