i was going to guess 700-800 with stock being 500. i bet they've got that particular car turned up a little more though.

mod for mod, they respond better than anything else out there. typically pretty under rated from the factory also.

probably not...

and to be honest i bet a decent motor could still draw vacuum on them.

(between the throttle body and fan not in the intake manifold thats a duh-huh)

And I saw a mexican driving a Ford Mustang "GT-R" on Crapital Blvd. yesterday. Badges don't mean a damn thing...

^^I remember thinking when I first saw those that they might pay for themselves with gas savings by reducing effort on intake, but I have no idea what kind of draw they have on the battery... they probably burn away whatever energy is saved internally straight out of the alternator and electrics... If I had a total pos, it might be right up there with a plywood wing for a joke mod.

Not to hate on the Mustang, but with their aerodynamics I highly doubt it.

not 226mph ... but hp/$ of mods

the 03 cobras were limited cause the front wheels were very light at 178
i'm sure the 07s are worse.

lingenfelter needs to hire new public relations & marketing staff, because they suck. the video just shows like 10 redundant passes and one in-car pass. how about a walk-around, underhood shots, engine starting, engine revving, etc.? and they provide two shitty photos on the webpage that really doesn't show anything. finally, the writeup is pretty vague.

no point... I was just pointing it out. I would think, that if I had/built an 800 hp car, I wouldn't advertise 505.

I've found many car shops and vendors are pretty useless at things like sales consultations, customer service, and marketing. they can turn a wrench and that's about it...

For example, I called Greddy at one of their regional headquarters (New Jersey?) and got bounced around a couple times to a few different people (like any other company) and then the rep I talked to had woefully inadequate information about a particular turbo kit and other products they offer.

considering a 1000hp viper only pulled 225 this is pretty impressive
