Re: Supercharged Mustang GT???
By the way guys, that's a mustang dyno they use on the show. That's why everythting they dyno tends to be lower, especially LSGun, which was bad *** by the way. And I believe the mustang they put a blower on was the 94-98 model, not sure if it was the 4.6 or 5.0, but either one did not put impressive power to the ground

Re: Supercharged Mustang GT???
I had a Edelbrock catalog a little while back and in the header section they had a little paragraph that talked about them putting a set of headers and full exhuast on an LT1 and I think I remember him saying something about a Dynojet when they gave the dyno results. Its Horsepower TV right??

I've Tivo'd every episode of that show for the last few years. It's definitely a dynojet.

If he has a supercharger, he's making way more power than a measly 300. 5.0s can produce way more power than 4.6s if told to nice enough. if it were a 4.6, you might be able to take him, they tend to remain pretty weak.
Sounds like the guy knows what he's doing, and i'm going to bet on him. Don't bring your slip is all i can say at this point.

A 5.0 would be low 300rwhp unless its has a H/C/I then they'll be well over 400rwhp.

(not sure when that model year started and ended)
:edit:
Come to think of it though, Horsepower TV did a project car where they put a Vortech supercharger on the model Mustang you are talking about. I think they called it project nightmare. It put down 300 rwhp after the supercharger. I think that was on the 4.6L engine in that model. (1996 GT)

Re: Supercharged Mustang GT???
If he rolls around on 20s (eww), body-kitted his mustang, and has badges that say "4.6GTR", I'm gonna take a wild guess that he's the kind of guy that does'nt know his heads from his cams, and just bought the car already supercharged. All he did was gay it up with his garbage. Race him. BTW: there is a guy in my town with a 95 5.0 with heads/cam,intake manifold, full exhaust, and an S-trim and it's ***** fast.
