Easily over 550 rwhp. My guess is 565rwhp 472rwtq n/a. 834rwhp 756rwtq on the juice. Jpc is making 550hp on there hci 5.0.

Bbbbbuuuuuttttt.......their engine is a stroker kit to a 318. I'm keeping mine at 302. I was waiting on DSS to release their stroker kit but they kept putting off and off and off. So I said screw it I'm just going fully built. What pisses me off is, if I didn't wait on that stroker kit my car would of be done last month.

Dang what is up with some of these low NA numbers? Lol

I think I'm right on with the N/A numbers. I don't think they will be real high because TS's dyno is a lil stingy. It should make good power and be fun as hell to drive on motor. I have little to no faith in manual trans nitrous cars though.

Why is that funny?

Isn't it the same combination as before (cams, Boss intake, CAI, 302ci, headers/exhaust) with ported heads, E85, and another point of compression? I'd say I'm in the ballpark at +25. I prefer to be conservative and then impressed, instead of optimistic and then dejected.

Besides, what really matters is what it runs....

I absolutely agree with you on that point. Him and I already had this discussion on this point. He's only got 4500 miles on the car and very little seat time in the car. I think he can get it to run a decent number on the motor because these cars are pretty damn easy to drive, but the juice it will be a different beast. He's going to need a lot of seat time and some luck not to break it as nitrous cars tend to do.

It won't run anything worth a shit unless the nitrous is progressive. You just can't shock the tires that hard on a stick car and expect it to do anything worthwhile.

I assume since it's a fogger that it will all be properly dialed in...

That's exactly what I told him. It's just going to blow tire. If it does hook, it's going to shit driveline parts. I've already been down that road long ago to know how it goes. lol.

Steve the cars now are built a little better then what you have driven in the past. I'm sure me using the nitrous in 3rd won't do anything harmful.

LOL @ thinking a 3rd gear 300 hp shot won't do any harm. I'm behind you 100% on this build, and I think it's going to be plen ty cool when it's done, but have you ever driven anything with this large a hit? 100 or 150 is one thing, but a single stage 300 hit is going to be a handful to control. I get crazy wheelspin in mine now, even with the 325 DR's on the back. Best advice is to pill it small and get used to it, then work your way up to the 300. Learn to use it, don't just build a dyno queen, and that will be a bad ass car.

What? Are you saying quality racing parts are only something recently to hit the market? LOL, gimme a break. I build my cars with quality parts and done right the first time. You aren't re-inventing the wheel here, Jeff. This is something that has been done time and time again by myself and many other Mustang enthusiasts.

Regardless of make and model, high horsepower/torque applications will ALWAYS find the weak link in the set up without fail and this especially true with nitrous cars due to the instant explosion of power that shocks parts instantly. Talk to Will, (Junkie) who uses nitrous for every application on every car he runs and he will tell you that nitrous car will always shit driveline parts - period. It still doesn't stop him from using it of course, but now he uses nitrous as a helper rather than the main power adder. He's gone all turbos and uses juice to spool quicker and get the benefits of the cooling properties of nitrous.

Quoted for later. lol

Hence why I'm spending so much on this build so its done right and hopefully don't have to worry about anything to break. I talk to Clint all the time since his main power adder is nitrous and I figure he would know best about nitrous and making sure my car is built for such a big shot. I'm not just throwing all this shit together without researching and asking questions to people who knows what they're doing.
