N/A gurus, what would it take to get my new mustang to 480-500 rwhp no power adders?

Im considering boost for my new Gt/Cs premium, but by the time you add up the cost for the blower and all its supporting mods your looking at spending $15k. If i go n/a the cost would be $6k. Stage 2 or 3 cams cobra jet intake messaged with the big throttle body bigger injectors, American racing headers with full 3 inch exhaust...and a rev auto dyno tune...think i can get there on pump gas with octane booster. What do you guys think.

Tune, intake, gt350 or cobra jet intake manifold, throttle body. Full exhaust. Can do some porting as well

Bet you're right there. Hell we made 450whp with a GT350 Intake/LT car last week.

I plan to do a similar build, cams, 350 manifold and bolt ons as has been said should make it there. Thankfully I have access to E85 too :banana: :pepper:

GT350 is a waste of $$$

I went to a vendor and put them in a bidding war.

I paid $5,185 for my Paxton 2200SL shipped in black with ID1000's and no BAP
I then sourced a BAP for $150 locally so that puts me at actually $5,335
Then I paid $100 for two 275/40/17 NT05R's on CL and put them on my spare rims
Ran 10.5@133 with pump gas on a cool night.

Car had an axleback on it already but everything else was bone stock.

It does not take 15K is what I was referring too. About 30% of that. You will spend more than that on an NA build to go slower

Your assuming want to go cheap with a paxton... Ive been there done that dont want the same thing again on the new car. If i go boost I'm going big with a whipple s550 it costs $10k completely configured long tubes with full exhaust (american racing) $2500 install and tune another $2500= 15k and we havent even talked about suspension!

There are a haldful N/A car's running around with those mods, if I were you I would ride in one first before you decide to go N/A or boosted.

Dasan at rev auto is putting together a whipple quote for me as we speak, i worked with Adam on my 2012 paxton. I Will see what that comes out to be but i can tell you I'm leaning towards cams longtubes headers and cobra jet intake with bigger injectors.

You can get a whipple for $6700. Takes 6hrs to install. Make 650rwhp and run 10's stock exhaust cats to tips. Paxton is best bang for the buck and these cars make way better numbers with the new heads and cams.

He's going to be selling everything. You can talk to Dasaan and see when they're going to take everything off if you're interested.
