Opinions on what direction to go for 1200

[5.2slow]

I have an 06 gt and was wanting to turn it into a 1200whp weekend warrior with track duty. I have a built 4r70w and everything else but motor decided on and what power adder. What would be the best route to go? 8.9s at the track and drivability are a must along with survivability. Car will prolly be close to 3800 pounds with me in it roughly

Can't be done. There is no need to discuss it further.

 

[rcm90]

Who built the trans? Is it lockup or non lockup? What fuel system? What power adder are you going with?

 

[stkjock]

I agree with Bruce, however, for shits and giggles. 5.4l 4v swap with twin 68 MM turbos or a big single, running on E85

Your trans is probably not up to 1200 and neither is your wallet based on how you have asked the question

I know nothing about 3v's, but couldnt you just go with a fully filled block and up the compression? With a big ass power adder?

He wants 1,200 HP and streetability and track. He is basically talking out his ass.

I'm sure it COULD be done.But it's gonna cost a ridiculous amount of money. That's for damn sure.


OP,

Just my $0.02, if you want a car that's gonna run that fast, give up the idea of driving it on the street. I seriously doubt you have the budget for that, because I guarantee you're looking at over six figures.

But getting a dedicated track car to those numbers? Totally doable for a lot less than that.

900 horse shot of nitrous, done

 

[Dillon Dollar]

Yeah 40-60k might get you there.

Mabe a high compression (12.0:1) motor with twin 67mm turbos and E98? I'm sure it could be done it would just be pricey as hell.

I'll take "Things I Never Have Any Interest In Driving On The Street" for $500, Alex!

You want 1200hp for the street? Start looking into a Bugatti. If you don't want a Bugatti, get together the money that you would need to purchase a Bugatti, and then put that same amount into the Mustang.

Easiest way to make 1200hp with a 3v? Spray. 900 shot of nitrous would be about right.
Let me know how it goes for you.

Gents - I see no where a limitation to a 3V 4.6L

still a silly thread

 

[cbass]

No restrictions on motor? W16 swap that sumbitch.
