hey guys,
I have been going back and forth for so long over the next step to take on my 5.0. To start, I've owned several mustangs, and they have all been manual, this one is auto due to the fact that it was my fathers and he and I shared a lot of good last times with it, so I sold my manual 15 and kept his.
I have done a few mods here and there and I daily drive the car, even through winter (my second car got totaled by hit and run driver)
I'm debating between doing a nice full ford racing suspension upgrade plus front brembos, and just keeping it that way and trying to squeeze a little more out of the engine and maybe a 3.55 rear end....
Or
I would like to supercharge, roots only. I have a great opportunity to get a roots TVS charger that will make within 500 hp but the TVS no noise from what I've seen and that's a bummer, or I can spend a bit load more to get a whipple which whines like crazy but then am I being silly ?
Lastly, where the the threashold for usable daily driver power and what does reliability look like on these setups, can I have it all? Fast reliable quick?
Thanks
