that is once of course my car is properly tuned, i see some of you guys are pushing 400 hp and 375 ft/tor and I'd love to have power like that.

Correction - there is only two guys making that type of power. The rest are at about 300hp or below.

Also, you probably wouldn't blow them off the line, you will beat them, but launching a FWD with 400hp is a total different ball game then a 400hp mustang.

ok yeah thats true, but at least that gives me a shot of making that type of power. I mean pretty much anything is possible if you have the time and money. Most likely with just the 3.0L and the supercharger I'd be close to 300 hp most likely then theres still other stuff to be done.

Ok very true, but i was thinking more along the lines of a mostly stock gt which is what about 275 hp, but yeah if its a 400 HP FWD cougar lined up against a 400 HP RWD Mustang, than hes probably got me off the line, but what it really depends on is the driver

... i think what he's getting at is putting 400whp thru a fwd car just smokes the tyres. No traction is to be had. We, as a forum..need to put our heads together and sort out an AWD setup....then the Mustang has problems !! G.

That would be freakin sweet if we could come up with an AWD set-up, then I could drive my cougar year round, although it would still probably be garage kept during the winter. Thats why I have my taurus, thing runs like a champ in the snow lol

*cough* mid-engine/rear wheel drive *cough*

EDIT: Aaaaaand, to make this post have something to do with Blackcoog's supercharger setup and not hijack his thread . . . nevermind, I can think of no questions that have not been answered

i don't want a supercharger. however, i do have a strong intrest if you could make a twin turbo set up for under $2500.

[Blackcoog]

hahaha... I'll get right on it.

I love the look of your kit and the fact that I can keep my current headers and my battery up front. I was hoping to hear some testimonials of some other people besides you that has the kit installed. I was hoping to see if there is anyone who has the kit on a daily driver, other pics etc.
