What would give me more power between these two choices....

Bossman · June 8th, 2007, 10:57 AM

I have a 2006 mustang GT with a Paxton H.O. supercharger(12psi.) and MAC axleback exhaust.
I'm thinking of getting either.....

MAC long tube headers (still run the stock catted H pipe)
OR
MAC pro chamber mid pipe (with stock manifolds)

Bossman, I am pretty sure with L/T's you can't use the factory h-pipe w/o doing some fabrication. L/T's will give you more H/P gains over shorties or stock. Exact #'s I don't have. So where ya been hiding at haven't seen ya around.

around 480 to the wheels......AND, I just called Brenspeed, thats where I got the tune, and was quizing him about making another 25hp.....He said I'm at the extreme limit of this motor and I could throw a rod tomorrow!

That'll stop you from buying parts!

Tell me about it...... I'm just about all spent out.

Gonna cost $4000 for a forged short block

Maybe I'll just gut the car, sell all the stereo equipment and make it a light race car...

patshea098 · June 8th, 2007, 12:05 PM

what kind of power you putting out bossman???

1LOUDGT · June 8th, 2007, 12:20 PM

Your braver than me went with 440 @ the wheels. You probably already know about the Brenspeed long tube prochamber package.

TDog · June 8th, 2007, 12:28 PM

I talked to Brenspeed about the MAC LT and Pro chamber package but they said if it were them they wouldn't buy it......Told me to save and build the motor first?!? I guess if they turn money away, you should believe what they say. :wink

I just talked to a local guy that is gonna throw some 3.73's in it to give me a little more and I think I might buy an off road H pipe just to get some more sound so it makes me "THink" I've got more power

I'm holdin off on the spray......I'm worried as it is. I plan on goin through the motor this winter'ish and then I can up the boost and spray till the cows come home! Not sure why I would spray till they come home though...

Jucostud · June 8th, 2007, 11:37 PM

How are your tires holding up Bossman? I'm thinking about buying the ones you have, but was wondering how the tread wear is on them. The price on them is so good, i was wondering if they lasted.

Bossman · June 8th, 2007, 11:49 PM

These things are holdin up good!! I put them to the test almost everyday..... Up at WFC I talked to Nitto and they said they're working on a 20" drag radial!?!?

That would be awsome!!!!!!!!!
I want nitto's so bad, but they don't currently make anything wider than a 285 in 20's.

It's good to hear the toyos are holding up though.
