I would've thought just a touch more but the gears don't add hp... if you were expecting them to.
I know gears dont add HP... lol... STICKERS DO!!!!
Also, will I be able to take a z06 with that set-up? Thanx again
I say 425 to 450. Better get a real good tune and some good tires. :beer:
I made on a Mustang Dyno @ 10 psi 476 rwhp and 424 rwtq. The motor is still a 281 all forged, 9.01:1 compression, P&P heads with stock cams, long tube headers ect... I have a V-1 S-trim w/ aftercooler.
How exactly does this answer his question? Your mods and his mods are on completely two different levels. Mustang dyno's usually read higher to begin with, get a Dynojet SAE corrected dyno and see what you put down.
Thanx j's98snake, but im really looking to get an answer on a stock 4.6dohc.. not a worked one..i cant afford to work the internals 
I have a 96 cobra with a v-1 s-trim non-aftercooled. It's only doing about 8psi. With a custom tune, flowmaster exhaust, and off-road h-pipe I got 420 rwhp.
realistically, I'd put my money on 430-445 with a nice tune, at around 9-10 psi.
Good luck to you!
Good luck to you!
by a "good tune" does that mean spending more money than the kit and installation itself? i mean. i was gonna use the FMU that the kit comes with, can i???
96cobratang? How did u get 420RWHP with 8psi and no internals? or aftercooler? doesnt sound right dude!
Yes, you should either get a company like JMS to send you a chip in the mail that will work for your application. Or get a dyno tune which is the best thing (but cost the most). The chip that comes with the kit is shit.
And yes, you will need to use the FMU. Unless you have a calibrated MAF and some bigger injectors.

What would happen if i just install the kit myself and not tune anything.. what numbers should i be looking at? Vortech says 484hp with the kit im getting
Well Booyah-
If you could comprehend plain english you would see how I tried to help this guy out.
My displacment is still stock, I have stock cams, stock intake, the only difference between my engine and a stock one is the 9.05:1 compression, stage II P&P stock heads and forged internals. This guy asked what his HP would be at 10 psi, well I posted my HP at 10 psi. Now for the big one...get a clue, Mustang Dyno's read a lower # than a dynojet, not higher. I'm probably making an easy 500 rwhp on a dynojet. I probably picked up a clean 30-40 rwhp with the P&P onther than that his #'s with similar bolt-on's would be close with a good tune.

SvtKobra96-
I did my own install, but you still need a tune/chip or you'll detonate with 10 psi.
BTW my mods are:
-9.05:1 compression, forged internals
-stock ported heads
-LMAF w/ 42# injectors/ 255 intank and 255 inline pump
-BBK long tubes with o/r H-pipe and flows
-V-1 strim with 3.12 pulley AFM power pipe
My rwhp #'s are at 5928 rpms (10 psi) on a mustang dyno. I still have stock cams, intake, ignition system and displacement.
Let me know if you have any Q's.

One more thing, FMU's are bad get 42's new MAF and a tune. You'll be happy you did.
or you can take that money, but a pinto and get drunk.
