425 RWHP on NA 96-98 GT

[04YELLOWGT]

A guy I know said hes pushin 425 NA RWHP on a 96-98 GT engine. I called a BS not to his face because I dont want to argue with him. It dosent even look like it has new catback on it but I dont even think its possible to push that much power going NA on a 96-98 GT engine.

you can't push that on any 4.6 2V N/A! he's probably making 190rwhp if hes still stockish

Thanks for the laugh, 04YELLOWGT!

Have him whip out a dyno sheet.

 

[01Steeda]

YEAH IT IS NA... NOT AVAILABLE ROFL!

 

[speedfreak98r]

Its possible guys..With enough money that is..And some methanol.

 

[CatmanJJ]

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. Does he have an engine in the back and the front?

please tell us how!

He is probably one of those guys who counts running nitrous as still being N/A. Or he has no clue what he is talking about.

Well lets see, I have

C/B- 20 hp
X Pipe - 25 HP
K&N- 10 hp
C&L CAI- 15HP
Ram Air Shaker- just looks cool
Billet Antenna-cuts wind resistence= 10 hp
Chin Spoiler (see above)= 15 hp

Damn, that only puts me at about 375 rwhp, that puts me close though.

That antenna adds at least 20rwhp.
You also have 2 extra valves per cylinder.

each of those mods came with stickers...if you put them on it will get you to 425rwhp.

Seriously- Rebuilt engine, with head work, aggresive cams, intake, 116 octane, hi compression, etc. Theres plenty of them out there..Although most are not daily drivers.

Really? show us. The most i've seen from a 4.6 2V NA was 360rwhp. That was KenB's car from ModDepot. He was running flat tops, serious head work, P-51 intake(race version), aggressive cams, built shortblock, race fuel etc etc and was still 60-65 rwhp shy of 425rwhp. Now maybe he could have forged the crank and spun the motor higher but thats not gonna get you 60rwhp on these 2V's.

 

[04YELLOWGT]

I just looked at him when he said that.
He told 425 rwhp.
I asked what ya got SC, NOS, Turbo, what?
He says I dont do that chit NA baby.
I said reeeeeeeeeealy.

What do you say to that?

 

[speedfreak98r]

Ok then..Nitromethane

 

[01Steeda]

I was about to say.. while my setup is far from aggressive.. I have everything you mentioned and I am still trying to break 300 ROFL!!!

 

[CatmanJJ]

I hope he's at least admitting new heads and cams cause if it's with stock non-PI heads then please pass over whatever he's smoking.

 

[deftsound]

makes me miss the 5.0s....

 

[hotmustang331]

Really, I would bet that it could not be done. I think I could get one to 400RWHP by means of some tricks I know...but thats PUSHING it. And it really wouldnt be streetable...yet I pretty sure I could do it on pump gas. If not id just spray some meth to add some octain.

 

[billfisher]

HOLD ON ONE SECOND GUYS, A 96 CAN MAKE 425 RWHP.


JUST PUT A 425 SHOT ON IT. BUT N/A IS REDICULOUS.
