Ok, so I have a 1994 v6 and I am trying to figure out which route will be cheapest to get 500-550hp. To buy, and turbo and cover a 3.8 to a 4.3. Or swap in a 5.0?
Good for you!!... (Clapping hands sarcastically). The point of this thread was which way was easiest to get big HP gains!.. Not who runs what with whatever car!.. The OP has a certain HP goal that he wants to reach and even said he doesn't care to build a BA V6 car!.. Yes anyone can throw FI onto their car and get 100hp "easily"!.. But if your gaol is to reach a certain HP # the easiest way, then yes a V8 is better than a V6!.. Same as a 3v is better than a 2v, or 4v better than a 3v, and the Terminator topping them all except the Coyote!..davidcseifert said:I can get mid 13's N/A on street tires lol what's wrong with his car?
He should be faster than 11's come on haha
Guess they both need better traction
Like I said before, he banned from the track because he won't put in a roll bar!.. So don't know what his car will really do!..keaton5.0 said:I would be highly upset if i had a 620hp car that didnt break into the 10s
Plus HP is not everything!.. Also have to figure in getting that power to the ground too!..Eturner said:Like I said before, he banned from the track because he won't put in a roll bar!.. So don't know what his car will really do!..
I didn't get butt hurt over anything I asked a question bub, then I asked why he didn't run better nothing more than nothing lessEturner said:Good for you!!... (Clapping hands sarcastically).

Getting tired of threads getting off topic from what the OP originally asked!.. All because some one starting to get butt hurt!.. People need to stay on topic with threads like this!..

Well just for comparison I can be running mid to low 13s with just a set of 4:10s!.. Seeing as I have just stock gears right now!..davidcseifert said:I was just using mine as a comparison, no hard feelings lol
Nice to knowEturner said:Well just for comparison I can be running mid to low 13s with just a set of 4:10s!.. Seeing as I have just stock gears right now!..
Point of this thread was V6 vs V8 and how which would be easier to build to a certain HP #!....davidcseifert said:Nice to know

'04 GT!...1slosix said:what type of stang do you have if i can ask?
Go V8!.. There's no way you'll reach 400hp on a V6 without going FI!..stangcobra said:I have a v6. Trying to decide if I shuld build it up for 350-400hp or buy a gt/cobra 1995 and do trickflow + bolt ons to reach my power goals.
CAI, 75mm TB with matching Plenum, TB Spacer, MSD Coils, Pullies, Tune, O/R X-pipe and cat back exhaust!..1slosix said:Now i use to own an 04 GT and if i recall it took more then gears to dip low 13s....what mods do you have just curious...
Also lets be honest a 2v v8 wont see 400 without FI all the same. What ive been trying to tell OP is that for what he wants to do going big power isnt really needed. What he needs to research is suspension.
if you can find a donor car you'd enjoy it...a proper m90 build can leave you very happy power vs weight wise. check on youtube for m90 builds...you'll see a couple walking s197 GTs lol.Hey 1slosix, Do u know anything about the supercoupe motor?

What if I buy a soupercoupe motor and swap out the crank to a 4.2l crank?Eturner said:CAI, 75mm TB with matching Plenum, TB Spacer, MSD Coils, Pullies, Tune, O/R X-pipe and cat back exhaust!..
And to be honest, you can throw on every bolt-on onto a V6 and SC it and still may not see 400hp!.. Where as you can do the same on an old school 5.0 (what the op keep referring to) and get well over 400hp!..
Sorry I don't know much about the internals of the Supercoupe!.. Personally I would just get a GT or Cobra and trade in the V6!..stangcobra said:What if I buy a soupercoupe motor and swap out the crank to a 4.2l crank?
Imma put my stang on craigslist after I've saved up a little over 1g. Just to see if she will sell or not.Eturner said:Sorry I don't know much about the internals of the Supercoupe!.. Personally I would just get a GT or Cobra and trade in the V6!..
Craigslist is full of whacko's. You could have the first 2003 terminator off the lot and put it on craigslist for 30k and have 20 people ask you if you will take 800 dollars and a snickers bar for it.stangcobra said:Imma put my stang on craigslist after I've saved up a little over 1g.
