2000-2004 Max PowerAs far as my Mustang purchase is concerned, I want to buy a V8, but gas is expensive, in case you haven't noticed  . But my body produces testosterone so I'm not sure about a V6. My friend has a V6 and won't shut up about it. Says how "It's the best car ever! Better than an Evo, 350Z, STI, cause it's a FAST V6 mustang!" So annoying. lol. He's getting reckless any more though with it so he won't have it much longer.... But what do you guys think I should go with V6 or V8? Thanks.

if your gonna get a v8 get one with a better motor 5.0 or a 4v at minimum you can put some power on these v6 with a stock bottom they can handle about the same power a GT's stock bottom can im currently pushing 390rwhp on the stock bottom im about to do a compression test before i head in for a re-tune depending how that goes 400+rwhp will be the goal with a smaller crank pulley, 10psi, adjusted cam with all the bugs fixed that extra 10rwhp should be to hard of a goal at all

but like they said... not a 2V... go 4V the gas mileage between the V8 and V6 is really not all that different... about 1-3 mpg difference, which can be made up for with a few bolt ons
