Just because I pay 150K for my car doesent mean I'm a complete idiot who wants to pay silly amounts of cash for ekstra poneys...

They must be having a laugh!!!

a little old but thanks for posting it and yes it is pretty damn funny. :rofl

funny shit is mustang magazine got a Ford GT down in the tens with a pulley swap and new tires then they found out the new tires were hurting the performance.

:eek

Well on top of list, I paid 10% import tax and and again 25% VAT on top of that, but still a great deal...

ROFLMAO-a twin-turbo at 800HP?? There goes the collector's value right out the window!

Run a Kenne Bell Blowzilla 3.3-pushes 55% more air than the Whipple 3.3 at 5400, uses the stock intercooler, and will really make that engine wail!!

I would guess one, two, three and bumm! There goes your engine, clean explosion if you were running on clean fuel that is.. Is that why they call it blower !?
How many PSI do we all think the engine can handle before some parts go to failure load. That would be an interesting discussion. Somebody has some insights here? maybe Roush friends like Baron Dave can slip some news on that to us..

Dave, you know something or can find out for us ?

Ford/Roush/Saleen must have pushed the engine as hard as they could to see what would break first and when... Is there someone in the know with Ford who can get us the lowdown?

I read on another site the fuel system (without changes) and Trans can both handle up to 750hp. My understanding fuel and gaskets are a week link. Out here in California we only get 91 at the pump.
